| want to ditch my Brooklyn to streamer..thoughts? I basically second the others here. I have the Mytek Manhattan and the Bluesound Node 2 and Vault 2. There is no comparison between the DACs in the Mytek v. Bluesound isn’t even close, nor should it be. The Manhatten is a dedicated DAC that goe... | |

| Do Macs Play FLAC? Ignore the above...just figured out that with dbpoweramp The files get stored in the Music part of the Mac, and from there have to be moved to the NAS. I will rip some more discs in FLAC (I had changed the codec to Apple Lossless to see if that w... | |
| Do Macs Play FLAC? The plot thickens. I just downloaded the Mac version of dbpoweramp and attempted to rip 2 albums in FLAC. They haven’t shown up on the NAS (or on the SSD of the Mac) One possibility is that I’ve not used the software correctly. The other is th... | |
| Paul Hynes Excuses to deliver the power supply SR7 , I Lost my money Glad you ultimately had an acceptable outcome but that is a long time for someone to hold your money. And what gives with the critics of the OP? Bad vendors need to be outed, and in as many places as possible | |

| Classical music on demand? I found Primephonic inadequate due to limited catalog. Quobuz will be here in the fall, supposedly, and then that will be the best High Res Classical Streaming Service. Tidal is awful for Classical | |
| Do Macs Play FLAC? @2psyop i understand what you said, but the point is that I am playing FLAC through iTunes. I am also running a trial of Audirvana Plus, but the files played before I added this, and if I disable Audirvana they still play through iTunes | |
| Bryston BDP-pi I I am interested in this ad well. What are your impressions? | |
| How to stream Amazon Prime Music I’m a bit confused, because your original post seems to imply that you have a DAC that connects to your PC by usb, but one of us seems to be missing something...Anyway, my setup is I have a Mac Air that is connected to the usb input of a Bryston D... | |
| How to stream Amazon Prime Music How have you configured the sound output for the PC? In the settings area have you designated the DAC as where you want the sound to be directed, instead of the internal Computer Speakers? Do you listen to other music from the computer via the u... | |
| Suggestions for streamer in bedroom system @2psyop I just added a NAS to my system and am controlling it with the Bluesound App. The NAS files show up as individual tracks, with a thumbnail picture of the album cover by each track. There is no “Album view” such as one gets with albums th... | |
| The Best Apple AirPlay Streamer I hired an IT guy to set up a NAS drive for me today. I use Bluesound for whole house audio but had been having a lot of problems with it. At any rate, it turns out that Bluesound can be used with Apple products (the Bluesound has to be configur... | |
| Which site is Best for Downloading/Uploading Hi Rez I was a fan of Bluesound but have soured on it recently due to a lot of technical issues.
