How do I stream the NAXOS Music Library?
So, my thought is to buy a Mac mini and use the Duet app that mirrors a display to an iPad as an external display in order to be able to control the Flash streamer from NAXOS. Information on the Duet program is here: https://www.duetdisplay.com/ |
I don't know of any way to have Roon stream Naxos, and, as far as I can tell, Naxos does not stream like a radio station. You have to use a web player from the Naxos website to stream a CD that you have selected from a list. I discovered Luna, which is a little dongle that will fit into my Mac Mini's display port and display the screen wirelessly on my iPad. Luna won't be available until around December. Once I have that, I'll be able to stream Naxos from my iPad. For now, I have to use a wireless keyboard and trackpad, along with a cheap 13.3" display from GeChic, to find CDs on Naxos and stream them to my DAC. |
Yes, I bought a DAC. I got a good deal on an Aqua Formula R2R DAC with USB input. I think it sounds great. The Aqua is recognized by Macs as a Core Audio device so it was plug and play. As I explained above, I use a wireless keyboard, trackpad, and small monitor to play from the Naxos website. I can’t wait for the Luna display dongle so I can control the Mac Mini from my iPad. |
