Some of the comments in the forum are justified in my opinion, particularly some of the major issues that have existed such as the distortion and I believe issues with the HDMI ARC feature but I do agree some of the more minor ones often look like people looking for oddities in the amps...

I don’t use any of the subscription streaming services. I stream from my NAS, occasionally play a CD from my OPPO player and use the AV function for my left and right channels in conjunction with my processor for AV. People do report the issues you mention though. There is an unofficial forum...

It is better with the latest firmware but not fully resolved. I personally rarely get it now. You don’t have to re power the amp to resolve it, just select a different input and then go back to the required input and start the track again.

Yes Auto Shutdown is disabled also.

I have just tried using the app and it works for me. I put the amp into standby and waited 2 minutes then took it out of standby using the app. I’m using firmware v521.

I have just re read your post. I am referring to the capability to bring the amp out of standby using the supplied remote control not an app. Which app are you on about anyway.

I am connected by LAN

Go into Network Settings and set Net Standby to ON.

I have looked at the Beta app you refer to. It won't solve the issue I referred to because as I said in the original post it never did it when streaming to the CDS 27 using the same version of the app. In other words the only thing that changed was going from the CDS 27 to the SA 30.

The USB input can be selected in the webclient only at the moment. I have tested it and it works.

I’ll have a look. Thanks

Now I have had the SA30 a couple of weeks most of the issues I picked up on before have now been resolved by email with Arcam. I can now bring it out of standby with the remote by changing a setting on the unit. It still occasionally skips tracks when streaming. The biggest issue I have found is...

Yet more issues found. I cannot select the USB input either on the remote or on the front panel. If Arcam carry on like this they are going to drop massively in consumer confidence. Are these things not tested before the product is released. None of them are show stoppers to how I use the device...

Having had the SA30 for a week now the 2 issues I have encountered are; 1. if the amp is put to standby using the remote it will come out of standby if done straight away but if it is left a while it will not. What happens is it recognises the standby button is pressed on the remote and the led...

How do you check if it is set to low power standby mode as I don’t see it in the menu. I only see the standby timer setting which was set to 20 minutes but I have disabled because I was watching a mono film at the weekend with my AV amp connected and because there was nothing going to the SA30...
