Cambridge Audio Azur 851N

I have had an 851N for more than a year now. Love it sounds great. Cambridge Audio has announced a firmware update to enable streaming Tidal very soon, in the next few months

I have just purchased this model, sounds good but.......despite being told otherwise can anyone tell be if its possible to fast forward/reverse or shuttle during the playback of a media file. It doesn't seem so via a USB stick/drive but what about with network storage??? for anyone wondering why you might want such a thing I assume you dont listen to 40 minute movements of classical music.

Thanks!!!

I recently bought a cambridge cxn v1 for $600,inventory clearance down from $900. Same internals as 851N at Crutchfied for $1600, more xlr, optical, & coax connects on 851N. There is no detailed manual from cambridge, very hard to get detailed info. I suspect the dac in both only works thru usb in, not optical or coax in.Published reviews have been none existent. Cambridge only has email support ion USA so answers are long coming. I use jriver, playing cd files copied to hard drive, optical out to cxn then coax out to Gungnir. Sound out is ok, probably because of gungnir dac. as a noob with Jriver, there is little instruction to clearly and easily get jriver settings correct. So Ive got some learning & reading to do. Cambridge said tidal is coming by software update between april 4 and 18, 2018, but Il believe it when it happens. Both microrendu and sotm 200 are Lan in to usb out renderers, so at least cambridge handles more connections in & out. Hans B gave positive reviews for cxn.

Today my 851N and the Cambridge app updated to Tidal ready. Won't have a chance to listen until the weekend. Looking forward to it. I have high hopes . Should sound better than streaming Tidal through my HEOS Link.

treebeard1 - Would like to know your opinion of the sound quality of Tidal via the 851N.  Also, how is the Cambridge Connect interface with Tidal?  Can you set any options for Tidal using the Connect app?

Thanks!
