![]() Musicians seldom do exclusives with streaming services they want to be on all of them. Is there a way to upload a system photo to this message or is it always done with external image hosting and an URL link?Ĭlick to expand.Not trying to sell you on Qobuz, but yes they have a very full catalog and many find it superior to Tidal in Classical and Jazz. All of my tablets seem spotty for wifi streaming - often there are interruptions in Tidal, like it can't get enough band, but speed check numbers say otherwise. One benefit, I guess would be to put it close to the router and use Ethernet. My sense is the good ones are expensive and are angled at the well heeled with multi room needs. I can control my tablet with an android screen.but if there is an inexpensive streamer device that would have better audio performance, I certainly would be interested. So my option are to stick with some form of W10 or Mac computer or use a proprietary streamer that would either have built-in MQA DAC or output an MQA stream to S2D. Their TS also told me their xmos solution did not lend itself to full MQA decoding through USB. Since Oppo is getting out of audio business, it is unlikely they will support additional features. Oppo BDP I owned had a built-in Tidal app that I could control from my tablet or phone, which made it a streamer as well.UDP-205 that came afterwards was purchased with an idea that it would support MQA, which they do now, but only for file playback. I had an early network player - Pioneer N50, which I got only for internet radio. Questions? I'm sure we're all ready to go in whatever direction you wish with this. That one is generally not supported outside of Apple apps, and expands this discussion. ![]() ![]() Elsewhere you mentioned you also have Apple Music. That is the shortest summary I could muster. Some of the above include internal DACs, but all would connect to your external DAC as well. Moving higher in cost, there are also proprietary streamers available from Naim, Auralic, and others that support Tidal and MQA but won't support all of the other services you mentioned. I'm sure many here will chime in to support DIY or pre-built server/endpoint solutions based on Rasberry Pi, Vortexbox, Intel NUC, and others. For the software that currently supports MQA, you're usually talking about running something on a server (placed where you'd otherwise put a streamer, or remote and communicating with a separate streamer like a microRendu). Hardware: If you did not require MQA, I'd recommend trying a used Squeezebox Touch (which has LMS built in), at least to start with. Roon and Audirvana will stream Tidal in MQA, but not Qobuz or Spotify as far as I know, and they are not free. Squeezebox Server) will stream everything you mentioned above except the MQA portion of Tidal, and would probably be the least expensive way to start as the app is free, some tablet control apps are free, and most of the hardware is inexpensive. Software: you can run all or most of your streaming through one app or one set of related apps. That simplifies matters a bit, though the addition of MQA does complicate them. ![]() As I understand from your other posts, you have no need for CD ripping or local storage. ![]()
