Pandora One on Home Audio System There is no ad supported Spotify on the app for IOS 4. You can play use either on the newer app which is supported in IOS 5 or 6.Lovin' my improved system. Thanks to all who contributed. | |
Pandora One on Home Audio System Actually, its the other way around. You have to have a premium account to use the Spotify app for IOS 4.http://spotify-for-ios-4.m.en.softonic.com/iphoneHooked it up last night and it sounds great.I'm going to do some A/B comparisons against 320 k... | |
Pandora One on Home Audio System The highest IOS the gen2 will accept is 4.2.1 so the Spotify app for IOS 4 works, its just not as cool as the newer app. MOG needs IOS 4.3 or higher and pulled the old app. The 3rd generation iPod touch supports up to 5.1.1. You need the 4th or 5t... | |
Pandora One on Home Audio System I have a decent S/PDIF cable that I'll try. I can also use a Toslink.Turns out the Spotify app for IOS 4 does support premium (extreme) streaming so my iPod is good for now. I can't install MOG on it though. | |
Pandora One on Home Audio System I forgot to mention: I ordered the Cambridge Audio ID100 and hope to have it by the weekend. Will report back after I've tried it out. | |
Pandora One on Home Audio System Sweet deal on the Wadia! A used one just sold on eBay for over $400. The Wadia is too wide for where I want to put my dock but it is highly regarded.I didn't realize the 2nd generation iPod touch wouldn't run Spotify premium. That's what I was pla... | |
Pandora One on Home Audio System The models you have are two that I am looking at. Both are about $300 now. Is there anything to recommend them over the much less expensive Pure i20? | |
Pandora One on Home Audio System Yep - you're right - the NAD dock uses the iPod's DAC. The Stream Magic 6 can also be used as an external DAC (same circuitry as the DACMagicPlus). Looks like I'll be eBaying the NAD dock and getting one with a digital out. I've been looking at a ... | |
Pandora One on Home Audio System Sounds good. I played with MOG on my laptop with its crummy speakers until I ran out of free songs. I'll probably sign up for their free trial and check it out but I'd have to hook up my laptop through the Stream Magic because it doesn't have MOG ... | |
Pandora One on Home Audio System What I like about Pandora is how their algorithm serves up the music. I can listen to a station all day without repeat songs and enjoy nearly everything played. There's not a human DJ on Earth that can do better. I do wish they'd offer a higher bi... | |
Pandora One on Home Audio System Update: I ordered the Denon DNP-720AE through Crutchfield ($275 after $25 off coupon) and auditioned it for a week. While it is an improvement over an iPod through the NAD dock, I found the sound a little thin and the menus difficult to navigate. ... | |
Pandora One on Home Audio System ... and it appears that the best I'll get with any of these will be 128k until Pandora gets around to updating their API. It seems backwards to have the best bitrate available on the web as most people are listening to that through comparatively l... | |
Pandora One on Home Audio System I did find the setting for higher quality on the iPod, thanks. Still, it looks like the best I can do that way is 64k per the response to an email I sent to Pandora:Currently all in-home devices receive 128k MP3 audio. Mobile devices receive a var... |
