Tune-In Stations With Great Sound kuvo.org mainly main stream jazz but varied programming on Saturday evening and Sundays I have met their engineer (and some of their on air personalities) and they really pay attention to their sound quality | |
HQ Player for Dummies @milpai Cool - so you are accessing the files through your network via an ethernet cable connected to your PC and your "PC" is not an off the shelf unit but something you have made, correct? and that's what you're calling your "server"? | |
HQ Player for Dummies @milpai thanks. yes I suppose my opticalRendu is a computer... Before I started streaming I listened to WAV files via Foobar, now I mainly stream (and listen to vinyl), but I’ve always wondered if it made sense to listen to files that I own throu... | |
HQ Player for Dummies Sorry if this is a stupid question: HQ Player is to be used on a computer, correct? For playing files that you own, as opposed to streaming? If I buy a DSD file from Qobuz and want to play it, I can put it on my NAS and access it through my netw... | |
DSD coming to Qobuz streaming? couldn't one access an analog master tape and produce a DSD file from it and bypass any other conversions? | |

Comparing Powerline Ethernet to WiFi for streaming audio @zlone I tried out the TP-Link extender yesterday. Sounded worse than my 60 foot Cat6 ethernet cable. Female vocals harsher. Didn't spend any more time listening | |
Comparing Powerline Ethernet to WiFi for streaming audio I don't think the TP-Link AC1200 uses the power line - it seems to be using the receptacle as a convenience. I may try one to see if I can hear a difference | |
Comparing Powerline Ethernet to WiFi for streaming audio @zlone thanks for sharing your experience - makes me want to move the modem | |
Comparing Powerline Ethernet to WiFi for streaming audio I have my audio system connected to my router via a 50 foot CAT6 ethernet cable. I use Powerline adapters for my TV setup which involves an outdoor antenna and a Tablo over-the-air DVR (works fantastic, BTW, as long as you have a really good ante... |
