There you go. Innous it is then  Smile
The Innuos has always been the favoured way to go I think but with the recent issues with Roon and Tidal I will not commit yet.
It is not just me the forum has a very large thread on the issue,. I am hoping last night was just a one off as it has worked just fine up till now. However last night was that bad that I stopped listening to music as it was just too frustrating. If i get many more nights like this I might as well stick with the Linn Kazoo Melco combination, and trust me I do not really want to do that.
Yes my lap top is shut down and restarted a couple of times per day. I have also restarted my router last night so we will see how today goes.
I know you may be thinking just buy the Innuos and it will all be OK. But will it? Not sure I am prepared to take that risk yet. I think my idea of sitting on the fence for a few months is a good one.

Sitting on the fence is always the way to get better products - or never get a product...

I have my reasons for sitting on the fence this time though.
There must be something in your setup, mine has worked faultlessly since day 1. I use roon/tidal exclusively as my only source which is installed on a QNAP NAS
@Womaz last night I played Roon/Tidal for about 5 hours without any problem. I see many that have problems but in my setup these problems have not accoured.
@octaviars I am hoping it was just a bad night. I was just about to commit to Roon lifetime too, but I still have two months of trial to go so i will see how it goes. It had been more or less flawless until this night. I really want Roon as I love the interface , the way Roon and Tidal work together is great.

Hi cereal killer,

it looks like you have a pretty simple system, that´s exactly my go: simple system and the laptop away.
Could you tell me how it works and what kind of NAS do you have? I´m usiing Tidal/roon/air via a mac laptop and a iPad as remote but i´d like to drop the laptop and get some storage capacity too. The Womaz solution (Innuos) could be an alternative but i´m not so sure about it yet.
Thanks.
@Womaz , when you have issues again, try Tidal on its own. At least that should single out one of the culprits.
Has anybody had an experience with the DCS network bridge as a Roon end point when connected to the Devialet via digital XLR cable? I’m wondering which sounds better? Roon plus air or the Roon plus DCS with Devialet. I was considering buying the dCS Network Bridge
