    Found my bliss with Shindo Vosne-Romanee (+ Nagra 300p)

    Interesting .., I have a Shindo Masseto (and also a Montille) and Thoress 300B monos, but have never thought to match the Shindo(s) with the Thoress. Must give it a try.

    Roon "Error"

    I would suggest you look at the Roon log. You may well find some clues there.

    Buying Advice Melco Vs Antipodes

    The Oladra will give you the choice of Roon, Squeezebox Server, HQ Player, MPD, and even Spotify Connect - and combinations of these i.e. Roon + HQP, Squeeze + HQP, HQP standalone + Qobuz, as well of course as your own redbook library on SSD. Suggest you find an demo Oladra to check out.

    Antipodes DX3 vs DX2

    I have used a LG GP60NS50 (single captive USB cable) many times to rip CDs to an Antipodes CX, without problem.

    Antipodes DX3 vs DX2

    Apple have locked the super drive to Apple devices. There are workarounds to make it work with Linux, but you would need to be able to access the Antipodes system software. dBpoweramp is fine if you want to rip to PC/Mac and then copy the rips to the Antipodes SSD using Windows File...

    Antipodes DX3 vs DX2

    The Apple superdrive cannot be connected to an Antipodes server. You do not need an Antipodes P1 drive in order to use the CD Import (ripper) app on the CX. Any USB CD/DVD drive, such as LG, Asus, Transcend, can be used satisfactorily. The drive must be connected to the CX when it is booted to...

    Antipodes DX3 vs DX2

    Antipodes should be able to tell you which dealers are close to you. Send them an email.

    Antipodes DX3 vs DX2

    Hi Max, The DX3 is considerably better than the DX2. The DX3 has a 120Gb MSata SSD for the system software and separate 1 or 2Tb SSD(s) for music library storage. it does run the current Antipodes software and is fully supported. However it was discontinued two years ago. You should possibly...

    Antipodes CX+EX

    Storage location for CD rips is set automatically (/storage/music/flac folder). Check that the CD Import app shows under Apps. If it does click the icon and you will see ripper progress. If it does not show install the app from Apps/Software Manager/Available Apps.

    Antipodes CX+EX

    Does the P1 USB cable have two legs? If so, connect both. P1 should be connected before server is booted. CD drives are recognised automatically so long as they are connected before startup.

    How to Play Tidal on Innuos?

    Further to my last post, and after investigation, I am not sure which Innuos servers run Squeezebox Server, aka Logitech Media Server. It appears the Zenith and Wave may have done, but possibly not the more recent models?

    How to Play Tidal on Innuos?

    If you have Squeezebox Server on the Innuos you can access Tidal by enabling the Tidal plugin under Settings/Plugins: You must also have a mysqueezebox.com account, have entered your mysqueezebox credentials under Settings/mysqueezebox.com: ... and, at www.mysqueezebox.com, under My Apps...

    Taiko Audio SGM Extreme : the Crème de la Crème

    The DX2 can certainly function as a Roon Ready endpoint. Just uninstall the Roon Server app.

    Antipodes CX+EX

    V3 can be installed on CX and EX but installation must be done at a service depot.

    Antipodes CX+EX

    It is, and the Storage Backup app included in Antipodes 2 software, writes to it. This app is not included in Antipodes 3 software, where the File Manager function enables users to copy to external drives, as noted above.

    Antipodes CX+EX

    The SSDs in an Antipodes server (CX, EX, K50 etc.) are configured as a single logical drive. So for example if a 2Tb SSD is inserted into the second slot, next to an already in-use 1Tb SSD, and is 'added' using the software function the result is a 3Tb logical drive. That logical drive cannot...

    Antipodes CX+EX

    CX for Roon Server (Core), EX for Roon Ready. CX is quite a lot 'beefier'.

    Getting Started

    The Antipodes would run Roon Core and Roon Ready connected via USB to your Lampizator DAC. Actually, the same as a Roon Nucleus would.

    STS Thorens (Greg Meltz)

    Cartridge at the time of photo was Dynavector 17D2 as noted. Now it has a Denon DL-103R. The TD124 is certainly in the same class as my Garrard 301s and 401, but difficult to directly compare due to cartridge, arm and plinth differences. So far I have not tried other arms. I have an Ortofon...

    STS Thorens (Greg Meltz)

    I have one, refurbished by Greg, who does the refurbishing himself. I believe he may source some parts from Audio Silente. Greg does fine work, he is a craftsman!
