mConnect not seeing Phantom

[streamy]

Here’s my setup: Downstairs, 2 Phantom Golds with Dialog and running DOS1, as no multi room function. Upstairs, a new solo Phantom Gold running DOS2. When trying to stream Tidal through UPnP, mConnect sometimes sees the Phantoms under “Play To,” but mostly it doesn’t. Any tips? Much appreciated.

A costly solution is to go the Roon path and use streamers like Raspberry Pi‘s attached to the Phantoms through optical (requires add-on boards like the hifiberry digi+ or compatible boards). Cost is around 100 Euros per RPi + audio board) so two in your case and an annual fee of 120 USD per year for Roon (or 700 USD for lifetime). Pros: It works well, Roon will give you a great user experience, still intact expectation is that Devialet will deliver in not so far future Roon compatible Phantom firmware update that the RPi‘s won‘t be necessary anymore.
