Theyre trying to raise a further €11m and are in discussions with two or three possible investors. They have 62,000 users and are aiming for 100,000 next year. Theyre launching a new mobile app This article doesn't say that theyre planning a new 24 bit streaming service which is what I was told it said. Perhaps the person who told me (who shall remain nameless) needs to practice their French Sorry, thats all for now my son is suqeezing a smelly trashcan monster in my face ; RE: Auralic Aries Vs Aurender X100 - amabrok - 22-Dec-2014 (22-Dec-2014, 18:48)PhilP Wrote:(22-Dec-2014, 18:39)amabrok Wrote:(22-Dec-2014, 18:37)PhilP Wrote: I found this article about the future of Qobuz very interesting : much appreciated thanks! RE: Auralic Aries Vs Aurender X100 - Charlemagne - 22-Dec-2014 Thanks PhilP! Here is an addition to what you already told us: I also have understood that they are eager to stay independent, meaning they want to avoid being bought by major compagnies on the market. Most of there new customers are in the UK and the Netherlands. 70% of there customers is only downloading versus 30% that has a suscription. I personally have onderstood that they are about to present a new type of suscription for streaming which at the same time will give you the right to download highres titles at reduced rates. So the ones with this type of suscription get a discount when downloading (i.e buying) highres titles. There are actually not talking about streaming in highres. The article also says that Qobuz is aiming on further development of highres content and that the younger public is still to be convinced of the superiority of highres titles. The article also says that Deezer has plans in develloping high quality streaming for the USA (not for Europe). I guess the journalist does mean lossless streaming, not highres streaming as yet.

Although it is a review of the Aries, the reviewer has also reviewed the Aurender 100XL, and does conclude with the following: "[The Aries] is a well balanced, “mature” sound. It is not as smooth and rich as the sound of Lumin, nor has it such a deep base of the sound of Aurender and Ayon, but these are much more expensive devices. But it is surely as clear, dynamic sounding as them. It is a small, well equipped device. It can easily be used even in quite expensive audio systems. RED Fingerprint." RE: Auralic Aries Vs Aurender X100 - bmichels - 17-Feb-2015 I have a question about the integration of TIDAL (and Qobuz for the ARIES) : we can built a playlist that include a mix a localy stored files and music files coming from Tidal (or Qobuz) ? If such "mix" Playlist are possible, this will be a « real » good integration of streaming service in a Music server :-) thanks in advance RE: Auralic Aries Vs Aurender X100 - tfc15 - 20-Mar-2015 (15-Nov-2014, 12:44)amabrok Wrote:(15-Nov-2014, 11:55)Charlemagne Wrote:(15-Nov-2014, 07:56)amabrok Wrote: Thanks Charlemagne! |
