streamer

My old Squeezebox2/Classic has served me well for the past 16 years, alas, it seems to be dying and I don't think I'm capable of fixing it. I want something nice looking, primarily to use as transport (don't care if it has a DAC or not), with a nice display. Support for Logitech Media Server...

Many of us are fascinated by the idea that we can process audio signals precisely and flexibly in the digital domain. Currently, there are numerous options available in the market, including popular offerings like MiniDSP and FusionAMP, each with their unique aspects. People have also brewed...

After reviewing the ASR data, I've noticed that the SMSL SU-1 DAC boasts a SINAD rating of 116, while the WIIM Pro Plus streamer comes in slightly lower at 111.6. https://www.audiosciencereview.com/forum/index.php?threads/smsl-su-1-stereo-dac-review.44029/...

From 2013 onward, I began a systematic survey of FFT measurements published by some German Hi-Fi magazines. Those magazines belong to a publisher which runs its own laboratory, thus ensuring consistency in the measurement method...

Hi! I was wondering if using the apple camera lightning kit (lightning -> usb) to connect my iPhone directly to my DAC would result in lossless audio? And do you think it's a good solution? (I don't really care having to connect the cable each time I want to listen to music...) I'm currently...

Hi all. I'm looking to step up my streamer game. Currently I have volumio on a Pi4 out over USB to my Rotel RA-1592. But volumio is really frustrating me so time to move on. My sources are - Local FLAC files over USB ssd - Spotify and Tidal over wifi - Optical out from the tv Within budget...

I'm about to get a MOTU Ultralite mk5 to pair with an SBC for CamillaDSP/streaming, but unfortunately Raspberry Pi 4s are still hard to find at decent prices. There are plenty of alternative SBCs and small form-factor PCs out there, but it's hard to narrow it down to one that's not too weak nor...

Hello I have a rPi 4 and an Apple type C dongle and want to turn it into an Airport receiver. I have tried the popular dedicated rPi OS: PCP with LMS: no simple way to get parametric EQ. Moode: very buggy with Airplay, I would constantly get issues where no sound was being played Volumio...

Thanks to this great forum, I've upgraded to the Elac DBR-62 speakers (thank you!). The rest is still a mystery for me. Currently considering piecing the following setup and am curious: Q1. Which elements should I change/upgrade to improve the audio quality/experience the most? Bearing in mind...

Does anyone got any measurement on Taiko Audio SGM Extreme to publish vs a more normal streamer like a Aurender N20 , Aurender N30SA , Auralic G1 streamer or a dCS Network Bridge ? Is it possible to measure any difference? And if so, is Taiko SGM the superior streamer / server ? @amirm

Hello all , here’s one request for the swarm intelligence. I have noticed the Swedish- Chinese Audio Pro Link 2 alternative to the WIIM Pro streamer in the WIIM pro thread. I’ve seen it touched briefly as well in DARKO’s year’s end product portfolio achieving visibly less enthusiasm than the...

The most budget audio streamer option is an HDMI streaming stick. The cheapest of them fluctuates around $30. However, there is a problem. All known HDMI sticks upsample everything to 48kHz. Yes, connecting USB DAC to some of them is possible, but it complicates things and increases the price...

I was reading about this Sony streamer. Anyone measured or tried it? It has auto-calibration, which I assume is some measurement-PEQ process. https://www.sony.com/tz/electronics/home-speakers/srs-ra5000

Dear all, I have a traditional HIFI setting and I also listen to music through Qobuz. I'm often using a computer or a tablet plugged to the amp with a simple jack to RCA connector and I'm planning to buy a DAC + Streamer (in one or two pieces). I have a question regarding the cache. Using...

I'm looking to set up a streamer in my living room in the not-so-distant future and have been looking into my options. The setup in the room hosts a Marantz NR1605 which powers my speakers and takes input from a HTPC and record player today. The streamer would most likely connect to the NR1605...

Hey all, At the moment I have a Denon X3700 as Preamp, which for the long time fed a Yamaha MX-1 with Dynaudio Evoke 50s, recently joined by the Evoke Center and the Dynaudio Sub 6. Long time lurking and reading led me to upgrade the MX-1 to a Boxem Arthur 4215/E2 which arrived today and is a...

Longtime ASR lurker here -- couldn't live without the great reviews and community advice -- but first-time seller, though I have feedback on other sites and forums. This is a fully featured digital streamer and preamplifer with Anthem ARC room correction built in. You can stream via the app...

Hey guys I have gotten my hands on a pair of these SBCs and I was wondering if I can load Moode or PiCorePlayer on these. I know they are distros built specifically for the pi and was wondering if I could achieve the same streaming capabilities from one. If not, what can I do (using Ubuntu...

Has someone already listened too or compared this streamer? It’s the successor of the U1 Mini which got great feedback among users.
