Would you happen to know if Audirvana UPnP streaming works with Phantom? Gapless?

In theory, Audirvana UPnP should work, but need someone who has actually used it to confirm because UPnP needs to have server, renderer and controller all working together.

Direct to Phantoms or is Dialog involved?
Audirvana has a rumour of sounding good, but this being UPnP, I agree with you it is best to to check with someone who actually uses the combination

Before this, had limited exposure to UPnP but UPnP into Phantom had this big sound stage that I wanted. After much learning, trial and error, I have taken the Phantoms up a notch or two.(22-Oct-2019, 10:42)Snoopy8 Wrote: [ -> ]Currently, only Dialog has UPnP.

Ah yes of course. I guess UPnP in DOS2 will require pairing of Phantoms, without Dialog to work. I have used UPnP, but am not a fan. Sound quality is generally good to excellent, but there is too much lack of compatibility
Re.: poll. 'Other' seems to be the clear winner with Audirvana second. 'Other' is by 'NOT UPnP' based mostly on usefulness, not sound quality. When UPnP/DLNA works it is just as good as anything else....
