An alternative for Bluesound?

Hello there

I'm using Bluesound streaming for Tidal, but I wish an alternative. What can you recommend? Does anyone knows something about Roonlabs? Would that be an alternative for Bluesound, or what do you think?

Kindly regards

It's difficult to make playlists - not intuitive.

Not possible (for me) to hear the different between 44.1 kHz and MQA.

Navigation will be lost on iOS, when you return from a Favourite album to the Favourite list. It works on BluOS Controller (OSX), not on mobile application.

But, what can you recommend?

As it sounds like your issues are more software oriented instead of hardware, you might find it most useful to try out some alternative software front ends. Will the Linn Kazoo software work with your existing Bluesound unit?

You can try Roon and Lumin software for free, before buying anything. The Roon software works with a lot of endpoints, but works best with a Roon-ready endpoint.
