Auralic Aries

[GuillaumeB]

Am I right in thinking that the Lumin IOS app would work with the Aries? I believe it's built on the same Openhome UPnP standard.

The clever guys at Lumin used the Linn Forum to help develop their app. Linn users thought they were helping to develop an app for the Linn DS so they threw themselves at the task! The thread on the Linn forum is 75 pages long and many many people were involved in giving detailed feedback. Check this out:

I'm sure the new Lightning app will be great but there will be a decent choice of controllers to choose from.

Sadly the MiND is based on a different implementation of UPnP and therefore Kinsky, Lumin etc won't work with it.

If Devialet do implement UPnP then I really hope they piggy back on something that is already out there, open source or not. Even the Streaming Unlimited platform would be good (used by lots of companies including dCS, ARC and Krell). But I have my doubts...
