    Unusual request; DLNA/uPnP server to run on iOS

    Any advice on one please chaps? I've had a look and it seems a more unusual thing than I first imagined. All the modern streamers seem to prioritise AV over tunes. I'll be streaming FLAC and WAV. I want to use my 256Gb Ipad Air 3 as a source, for my own files, for my newly acquired...

    Streaming Newbie buys some HD versions and realises he's in a disappointing minefield

    I was going to extend the Talking Heads thread here Talking Heads 24/96 Releases https://www.pinkfishmedia.net/forum/threads/talking-heads-24-96-releases.165195/ as a thread dredge, but as I wrote this I research more and found this was a broader topic. So we'll see if fellow fish can help me...

    Blu Ray player and streaming, advice please.

    My system LP12, CDX, 82, 250, SBL. I want to add blu ray player that will function as a good streamer regarding sound quality. In the internet I see players with tag price of 100 - 200 $ compared to more expansive 1,000$. I have also noticed that many of the more expansive players are from...

    Chromecast Audio alternatives for HiFi use

    Dug out the old HiFi for causal use and thought a CCA would be nice on there for my android phone. However, I remembered that Spotify can't do normalised volume via a CCA. Therefore, before I hunt one down is there any other budget priced gadget that does the same thing with Spotify volume...

    WD MyCloud NAS

    Is anyone using this as a NAS for streaming music? Its cheap but the reviews on amazon are poor. It would be used to stream to sonos and then bluesound node 2i in the near future. Thanks

    Please recommend streamer

    Hi, I am looking to buy a new streamer for my setup. I have a rega brio 2017 and a rega dac-r, so the internal dac in the streamer will not be needed. At some point I will probably upgrade my amplifier to elicit - r level so I am thinking the budget for the streamer should be upto 1k, although I...

    Moode 5

    Moode 5 player has been out for a few days. I see many people cannot be bothered and want things on the proverbial plate, too much trouble for me. But for those who are willing and able it is an easier install than previously so for minimal cost and effort you could be streaming the no frills...

    Why does Radio Paradise sound so good?

    Hi all, I listen to Qobuz and Flac downloads through a Digione signature and Chord Qutest, and while they all sound good, Radio Paradise always seems to sound somehow better - clearer, deeper, more separation etc. That’s even when comparing with hi res streams. Does anybody else have the same...

    Tidal HiFi vs Qobuz Studio - which sounds better on your system?

    Has anyone compared Tidal HiFi (£20) vs Qobuz Studio (£25). Which sounds better on your system, and in what way? Have you compared the same recording at different levels of data/resolution? Do you have an MQA-enabled DAC/streamer, and/or do you get an MQA first unfold in Roon or Audirvana or...

    A few questions in one re: amps, streaming & DACs

    Duplicating my post from another site as both places have great input from knowledgeable users. Anyway, it's a little long but please bear with me! Bit of background - I have an HP Microserver with 32TB of space servering up all my media via Plex over a wired network throughout the flat. While...

    How much difference between streamers when using own dac?

    Hi all, I currently use a cca into a rega dac-r, the cca outputs via the optical into the rega dac which then reclocks the data so it should in theory remove jitter. I have read elsewhere that for a optical output to work all data needs to be sent or it won't work, so coupled with the dac there...

    Access Naim Unitiserve or HDX with Spotify app?

    I'm just doing some due diligence before delving into the world of streaming and CD ripping with Naim. We currently stream using Spotify and a Chrome Cast Audio. I understand the Spotify app has the ability to point to a networked NAS and stream songs from it. Does anyone know if it can "see"...
