RE: Basic streaming to D200/D250 question - pvanosta - 13-Jan-2016 Indeed, to me the 3 were -streamer/dac (currently my Oppo105) -preamp (Parasound Halo JC1-BP - power amp (Bel Canto Ref 1000 monoblocks) RE: Basic streaming to D200/D250 question - Womaz - 13-Jan-2016 (13-Jan-2016, 11:40)pvanosta Wrote: Thanks, You are spot on. AIR works great for some and not for others. I believe Devialet advertise this function and should not be. The Devialet is however offers excellent sound quality. I bought it as a one box solution and after 9 months of problems with AIR, I bought a Melco to work as a streaming solution. To call the Devialet a streamer to me is misleading........but I guess thats beause I was one of the users where the AIR function was just unreliable. One box solution?? definitely not. Amazing amp.....most definitely. RE: Basic streaming to D200/D250 question - octaviars - 13-Jan-2016 Womaz (13-Jan-2016, 11:40)pvanosta Wrote: Thanks, Quote:You are spot on. AIR works great for some and not for others. I believe Devialet advertise this function and should not be. I think that calling it a one box solution even if AIR is working is wrong, a one box solution would to me mean that everything is built in even the streaming software and the controlpoint with AIR it is a 2 box solution, Devialet plus a computer but hey that is just me When I bougt my first 200 I never thougt of using AIR since I dont want to have a computer on everytime I want to listen to music so I went with the Aries and that was a good choice until Auralic decided to stop developing the app for Android so now one cant use their Lightnig DS app on Android to connect the Aries to Tidal only iOS works now So now I ither use Bubble UPnP to control my Aries or testing out ROON ready for 14 days trial period on ROON, this works ok but I am not shure if I want to have the computer on and run ROON on it but future will tell. If Devialet gets ROON Ready I would consider to have another computer that is on all of the time and runs ROON and I could get rid of my Aries. RE: Basic streaming to D200/D250 question - Morten - 13-Jan-2016 I am convinced that you can connect the NAS to the Devialet with a USB cable, and then use DS audio as a control APP. Kind regards Morten RE: Basic streaming to D200/D250 question - pvanosta - 13-Jan-2016 (13-Jan-2016, 15:21)Morten Wrote: I am convinced that you can connect the NAS to the Devialet with a USB cable, and then use DS audio as a control APP. That would be interesting to test. Anyone? RE: Basic streaming to D200/D250 question - Confused - 13-Jan-2016 I believe there is a NAS version of JRiver now. Has anyone tried this with a Devialet?

What is Synologys streamer app on their NAS and I have tested to connect my Synology 213+ NAS with USB cable directly to my Devialet and that is no match for my Aries so that is not something i recomend if you are looking for really good sound with your Devialet but it will work that is correct. RE: Basic streaming to D200/D250 question - pvanosta - 13-Jan-2016 Looked at JRiver's user forum. There have been some conversations with Synology but no status update since Nov 2015... |
