I find the interface simple and effective and I love the fact I can browse the music on a network shared HDD without touching my laptop.
I was curious for this release and I think I might have upgraded only if they implemented a USB digital output (just to connect to my Expert in a more “modern” way).
Honestly, if used as streamer only all the new upgrades would probably make a minimal difference.
Great info. I am going to purchase two Phantoms. Do you know if my assumption is correct?
- Putting a Node within my network I can stream Tidal to my Phantoms via ethernet/wifi
- that way I am able to use the higher quality in relation to Spotify (at this time, I know Spotify Hifi is coming)
- I can connect my TV to the Node with HDMI eARC to play the sound via optical cable
- I do not have to purchase a license from Roon to use Tidal
Right?
