Re: Movie/series wot Blind Chile just watched

Certainly, there is anti-Jewish sentiment here.

But no. Paragraph 5 - I will not repeat the phrase. Unacceptable.

I'm surprised that you have closed the compliant I raised and have challenged me, on such a disgraceful post on your forum. Shame on you.

Re: Movie/series wot Blind Chile just watched

I assume something will be/has been done about this racism? It is not okay, anywhere, ever.

Re: Cable vs Bluetooth

Spotify = fine. 16bit and up, noticeably lower quality whatever the equipment.

Re: Life of Pi

Hi Pianist Couldn't help but notice 'Troels Gravesen Scanspeak Discovery 3-Way Classic' . That's some build you've taken on - looked that up recently and its complicated for sure, any chance you could let us know how its going ? Can do. Cabs are built and lined and crossovers almost finished. Next ...

Re: Life of Pi

WAV files won't have tagging data and you will need to access them via the folders on your drive. Simple to organise those into a logical system though. What I also do is save the album cover as 'folder.jpg' in each album map. Volumio displays them as thumbnails. Thanks Fretless, this is mightily h...

Re: Life of Pi

Loving the Pi playback. Unsurprisingly large improvement on my budget Marantz, which although bought for a bargain, was on the harsh/bright side. Running Volumio. Great. Easy to access streaming network. Will hook up a local USB harddrive when I get a decent power supply or cave in and buy a powered...

Re: Device for hires audio streaming/playback

So, external harddrive arrived over the weekend and I had a chance to test FLAC/WAV of same tracks. Difference is marginal if anything but maybe more fuller sound from WAV. But it's a nonsense test because still loads of jitter (thought it was the media server as i have a repeater between PC/router)...

Re: Device for hires audio streaming/playback

Interesting. I'm going to rip some WAVs to compare with the same FLACs over the weekend. I have also found brittleness compared to CD playback. But I'm not trusting playback via Android box over network until I've tried other devices - for price, I think I'll be investing in RaspPi/HifiBerry initial...
