| Grimm MU1 Streamer - Really "The Best"? @metaldetektor , thanks, but did both of those things and there is no reference to any hard disk on the overview page. But then again @svenjosh doesn’t see any hard drive info on that page either but has no issue accessing his MU1 folder on the di... | |
| Grimm MU1 Streamer - Really "The Best"? @adasdad , yes I carefully considered the K50 vs the MU1. I went with the MU1 because 1) The general consensus is that it favours neutrality and precision over fullness and richness, 2) I liked the concept of it’s 4X OS and how much people like it... | |
| Grimm MU1 Streamer - Really "The Best"? @svenjosh , I was being a bit sarcastic about Grimm abandoning plans to enable FM tuner, I’m not sure anyone at all cares and I certainly do not :) I didn’t actually think the chances were very high that they would be developing proprietary playe... | |
| Grimm MU1 Streamer - Really "The Best"? Feature request for a software update I suppose. Not an essential feature but something that would have helped me identify if the drive was actually being recognized by the MU1. Also as a convenience to monitor capacity. I only really care about s... | |
| Grimm MU1 Streamer - Really "The Best"? @svenjosh yes my kids have a Mac so I can try that when I get back home this weekend. But I really think something is wrong with the drive not being recognized by the MU1 at all, as it doesn’t show up like it says it should as sdb1 in the mnt fold... | |
| Grimm MU1 Streamer - Really "The Best"? @lalitk thank you and you are right; can’t wait to get back! I do have a hunch something is wrong with my MU1 however. It’s pretty clear in the manual I should see the hard drive on my home network, and it’s not there. Grimm have a FAQ on their... | |
| Grimm MU1 Streamer - Really "The Best"? @lalitk yes I’ve reached out and from what I’ve seen in other forums yes they provide tech support. But unfortunately right now I’m sitting on a plane and will be gone for the week unfortunately. | |
| Grimm MU1 Streamer - Really "The Best"? Received my MU1 (still no AES cable though). Powered it up and configured Roon. However, I'm not able to access the internal 2 TB drive to load files. Also, the instructions say that I'm to add sdb1 to the Roon storage folder (per my serial num... | |
| Grimm MU1 Streamer - Really "The Best"? @svenjosh , can’t wait to hear of your testing of the Sablon and Nordost AES cables vs the Shunyata AES! I ended up buying the Shunyata Omega AES (hasn’t arrived yet), after first trying to find a Jorma cable. If there is any way for you to try ... | |
| Grimm MU1 Streamer - Really "The Best"? “To me it just doesn’t make sense to put a $10K streamer in front of a $4,500 DAC” @davespencer , I do get how rationally this may seem unbalanced, pairing a DAC module in an amp to a far more expensive streamer. But in practice I can totally see... | |
| Grimm MU1 Streamer - Really "The Best"? @metaldetektor , thanks for confirming. No SPDIF either. I will pick up the cheapest AES cable I can find. Don’t care if it sounds good or bad; really just to have it fully set up and burned in (mostly) by the time I’m home on the weekend. Wit... | |
| Grimm MU1 Streamer - Really "The Best"? @ghasley @metaldetektor @svenjosh , can either of you tell me if the MU1 comes with a generic AES cable as an accessory? My MU1 is scheduled to arrive on Monday but I don’t yet have any ETA on my Shunyata cables and I have no other AES cable... | |
| Grimm MU1 Streamer - Really "The Best"? @fleschler , thank you, I will hold out hope that experimenting with the SR fuses will at least help with the day/night swings in quality. This has actually been on my audio to-do list for a while now. | |
| Grimm MU1 Streamer - Really "The Best"? @fleschler I did upgrade my house’s AC circuits to address the issue last time (along with component upgrades). Dedicated 20A AC circuits using 10AWG wire, all audio gear on the same phase, Shunyata receptacles, etc. I don’t have a dedicated bre... | |
| Grimm MU1 Streamer - Really "The Best"? @fastfreight , I am using an Audioquest Hurricane for all my source equipment. One of these Hurricanes is the old braided style and definitely doesn’t sound as good as the others. I keep this one on the PhoenixNET. Once I get things sorted gear... |
