Was there one owner of The Sony Centre or were each of the stores franchises so you know?

I’d possibly look at upgrading your Node 1st, I think WiiM came into the market and have put a lot of pressure on the other streamer manufacturers and Bluesound have “upped their game” in response providing better sounding products. I have the Arcam SA30 and bought their Nano recently, I lent...

I'm not surprised, I think it's very short sighted of the companies not to ... that said Qobuz are potentially largely to blame as they'r eso late to join the party. I may have changed to them if they'd had Connect 6 months ago but went with Tidal because their Connect worked with BluOs.

That's kind of picking holes when it's completely uncalled for isn't it?? You can cast from you phone / tablet to various devices like WiiM's or Echo's in the same way as you can with Spotify Connect and Tidal Connect .... so what specific name would you like to give the Amazon version to keep...

Do you think they'll ever do it, they've never done so with Amazon Connect and they've had years to.

I wonder if they will adopt Qobuz, I currently use Tidal Connect with Bluesound but had to move to that from Amazon Music as they don't "play together" either.

My neighbour recently home trialed the A6 Gen 2 and the Icon ... he still has the Icon.

Is that the "proessional and technical people" who are basically just "influencers" trying to make a name for themselves and get internet hits to make money. There are as many "proessional and technical people" doing videos comparing DAC's and saying ones is better than another as there are...

If you could give us some detail of the different DACs you've personally tested over a reasonable period of time in your home environment, how you volume matched them and how you managed to play the exact same source to each of them, would love to her more about it.

I don't think the fundamental Rubbish in = Rubbish out has changed .... BUT .... I think generallly the level of what goes in has probably been lifted / become more standardised with remastering / modern equipment making it a more level playing field. Many people are unable to tell the...

I loved and still have several WiiM's and agree the App is better, I really didn't want to move away from it also because of it's integration with Alex and Amazon Music Unlimited .... but there was a big uplift in sound quality to a Bluesound Nanao so have switched and also moved Tidal which was...

I haven't seen "notes" but his commens were ... he had a love / hate relationship with the Eversolo, some tracks he felt it was mind blowingly good and was frustrated with others, he was also frustrated with some issues with the software. I was on holiday for over 2 weeks so lent him my Nano...

It all depends what you want to spend ... could start with a WiiM Mini as a starting point although I'd probably go for a Pro or Pro Plus depending what DAC your Amp has (assumin it has one). I've recently found the new Bluesound range to be better sound quality than the WiiM's, I started with...

I had WiiM's for 2 years using my Amp's DAC but also tested against a Pro Plus using it's DAC but I've recently moved over to initially a Bluesound Nano and and have just upgraded that to a 2024 Node N132 but on;y because of the extra inputs. I'm not knocking te WiiM's at all as I think they're...

I thought the DAC in my Arcam SA30 which had good reviews would be enough with a WiiM Mini but every step of change from there has been an upgrade In essence there's "The Best" Amp ..... "The Best"Streamer ....... and "The Best" stand alone DAC so personally I wouldn't rely on combined units...
