iPad Mini as control device for network player

I use mine with a microRendu. Works great with mconnectPlayer HD for Qobuz streaming and Rigelian for my personal library. I also use Airplay for various other streams with the microRendu's Shairport  function.

Sounds like a Mini can handle about any player or app out there, so I won't hesitate. Thanks, melvinj.

If you have not bought the mini yet, I would wait until March. Apple is going to launch new version of iPad mini. The new mini 6 is expected to have 8.4” screen without any increase to the physical dimensions of current iPad mini 5.

I've been using a Ipad Mini for the last 5 years with my Auralic Aries Mini it works great and I like the size of it.

Using Mini with lots of the apps mentioned above. One nice touch in Lumin app is you can pinch album art to display whatever size you prefer. 
Just started using Roon, and have to figure out how I can do the same as the default 2 rows of larger covers makes it more tedious to scroll thru my large collection. Other than that minor issue, Roon on mini is great too.

I don't think you'll regret getting an iPad Mini for remote. Spring for a comfortable leather cover! Cheers,
