As a nubee to Roon using a PC, I sure like the idea of having a kinesthetic, hefty volume knob. I suppose I'm a bit 'old fashioned'. Hopefully other members have some experience with the rooDial or/and the rooNuimo.
I'm in the process of acquiring a pair of 8c's, a Nuclear +, and my first Roon subscription. As I research. I came upon an interesting add-on, the rooDial by Dr. Oehlrich. It uses an MS Surface Dial as a wireless volume knob with additional controls. Are you familiar with this piece? It seems...
I currently stream Tidal & FLAC via USB into my APL DSD Mr MkII from my laptop. I'll need to look into what hardware/software (Roon) I would need. I'll also need a USB>AES converter & cable. If you have suggestions, please guide me. Simplification has complications.
A huge attraction for me with the 8C's is how close they can sit to the front wall, as well as other features.
It's surprising to me that my closest Dutch & Dutch dealer is a pro audio shop rather than a home audio store. He has a pair on order for me to listen to.
The Dutch & Dutch...
Thanks. I'll look into the KEF's. I'm surprised that the 8c has not been updated for wireless play. Have you heard any whispers about an updated Dutch & Dutch version?
