Yummy :hungry:

The 590 is terrific, more refined and powerful than the 390. Also take a look at the Boulder 866 with optional Roon enabled DAC. It’s very very popular here in the store. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Pro

Agreed. It was for me too. My only beef is that T+A raised their prices SO MUCH on the HV series in April 2019. And yes, I told the CEO of T+A in Germany when we sat down for a drink last May. He said their costs overall went way up. Oh well. ...

Jeep... really... makes me want the McIntosh of days gone by :)... I cannot believe that this will promote or help the brand, but then again I certainly could be wrong. I would have thought they would have stayed with higher end brands to prompt...

Depends on the size of the room and specific bass nodes you’re trying to tackle. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Pro

Yup, even though I am not a fan I do believe that Apple is not the issue either. I will say I have heard more people having issues when using Apple's but I do not necessarily blame that on Apple. I do believe that there are more issues simply...

I’ve ordered this configuration for demo. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Pro

It’s different than chip or R2R. Very unique. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Pro

Congratulations! Always love a happy ending. XP-22/32 are way ahead of the previous models. Enjoy it in great health.

No. We can always discuss taking your N10 on trade towards an N20. N20 is right there with W20SE sonically. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Pro

I was actually thinking this also. People think Macs never get viruses but in actuality they actually get more because of the sense of invulnerability that Apple promotes and many times leaves system exposed. It sure sounds like something going...

I love watching the bits by bits move across the screen.

Yes!!! Must feel great to have a dedicated room. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Pro

Yes. For sure! Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Pro

300 baud works just fine. Love the noise it makes when we connect to this incredible thing called “AOL”. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Pro

Yes. A few months ago, I set up a single folder with one album in it. We proceeded to test it for a while and it was going good. Then it started to hang and splutter. I don’t have folders for file types, they are Genre, high res, DSD, etc. ...

Have you tried have only a small library as a trial... Maybe put a few albums into a separate folder and use that as the only folder in the library. I doubt it is the case but it might be possible that the library is over loaded. Do you have...

Listening now to the same track on Aurender, same cables, same DAC, vs Roon and it’s not even a contest. It’s so much better sounding. This N20 is right there with the W20SE sonically. So impressed. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Pro

Nope, we took those out as step one. We will figure it out. We have to, we have so many Roon devices in the store. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Pro

Yup, only Roon core. I originally thought it was our slightly older iPad, so I bought us a new iPad Pro. The issues were the same. Ditto for my phone. I’m really thinking I need a faster NUC for the core. When it hangs, I usually see it...

Are you running only Core, not the entire stand alone Roon install? Running only the Core setup is much better and much less over head. The is no reason for the GUI to be installed on the "server" machine. The controller (tablet, another PC,...

We are running a NAS (Synology 1812+). The laptop has the latest version of Mac OS. My hunch is that Roon constantly wants to update the library and our library is large. My guess is that it’s getting stuck somewhere. But that being said,...

Mike, have you tried having your active library consisting of only locally installed music files/folders? Just curious. The first thing that has to be done is to actually determine exact what is causing the problem... computer power (very...

The exact same thing happens to me at home with Roon. Different network. Different everything. Single source for streaming.

We’ve rebuilt the Roon library several times. I think our next step is a more powerful computer. An i9 or something. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Pro

Thanks! Will give that a try. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Pro

For the first few hundred hours, they are forward. After that, not forward. Dynamics galore. Bass will shock you. Bottom line: long break in. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Pro

We have a fast MacBook Pro in the store. Tried that a few months ago. Still choking. Actually, was even worse! Maybe I need a SGC i9. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Pro

Wow What a sandwich. Looks delicious.

I’d love to see your opinion on the Fyne speakers. Their looks have grown on me. I have not read anything bad about them.

Fyne 502SP's have my interest

Doing a demo on Friday and this is an example of what happens: ROON IS BUGGY!!!!! - YouTube Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Pro

We aren’t 100% sure. I believe it’s the core, because we use 2 iPads and my phone in the store to control Roon and all are doing the same thing. We’ve replaced the core. No change. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Pro

I have never once had an issue with Roon. It just works every time for me. A buddy recently had an issue. After the latest update his system stopped working. I told him it sounded like his very old Mac was using a very old OS and had probably...

One final topic is support. As a dealer, we have received incredible support from Lumin (Peter rocks!) and Aurender. With the Aurender support, it’s built into the app. Click the support button and Aurender will remotely IP into your Aurender and...

Jack is correct. We use Roon a lot in the store because many of our products require it. We also help customers with Roon Nucleus’ and the like. Roon is hands down the UI champ. It’s search function and UI are second to none. Very powerful...

To legally reverse engineer you need virgin engineers (have never seen nor heard about the product). They are given a list of features that are required and told to create this. This is what Compaq did to create the IBM clone. The I/O chip set is...

Hegel 190 perhaps? SimAudio 340. Lumin M1 is also a good choice. Sim has shown a lot with B&W. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Pro

Agreed, I believe it is a manufactures issue, not Roon. It is not like Roon has hidden any of this to the manufactures.

They should go straight to the manufacturer. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Pro
