thank you for your test.

Thank you for your reply. For now, it seems Desktop version is the way to go on Mac silicon.

@Miska hi Jussi, with Ubuntu can run on apple M1, M2, is it possible to run HQPe on M1, M2?

ok, noted. Thank you! Roon to HQPlayer Desktop is the easiest way to enjoy the management of library and sound quality. John

hi paulmckwan, May I ask what you mean by HQP point to HQP Desktop? Do you run HQPlayer on NAS? Thank you. John

Thank you, I shall also try to see if port trunking improve my system or not.

thanks, so you didn't use port trunking in this setup? Silent Angel N8 not able to handle port trunking, right?

Thank you, audiobomber. What routers/switches are you using now?

hi audiobomber, I'm very intrigued by your feedback. Would you please shed more light on your quap settings about port trunking and your network structure? Thank you.

I've been following this interesting topic and I still have somethings that I'm not very certain of. If I want to use HQPlayer V4 Desktop Version on Mac Mini M1 or future model, could I do the followings? 1. JRiver also on Mac Mini M1 and stream locally to HQPlayer Desktop V4 on M1? 2. JRiver on another windows pc and stream to HQPlayer Desktop V4 on M1? 3. Digitized vinyl from Tascam ADC to Mutec MC3+USB as usb bridge talking to HQPlayer Desktop V4 on M1?

Looking forward to your result.

Thank you for your info, Matias. I also got a Makua with DAC, but not roon ready. I use QNAP nas as roon core, so if Makua can support Roon ready via Lan, it will be a nice feature for me.

Hi Matias, Do you happen to know know when Makua will get an upgrade to enable lan streaming? John

I am owner of M900u. while I was auditioning at the seller's place with c900u, the result was not that good compared with boulder 1010 as the preamp. c900u as the preamp makes the sound too soft and a bit lack of vividness, but boulder 1010 brought back the energy and thus made m900u perform to its maximum. I'm not sure if Makua a better fit with m900u or not, but it worth a try. Makua is going to have Roon Ready feature as the Tambaqui does?

I have two PC running Windows Server 2016 Core, both have the latest AO 2.20 and fidelizer 8.2. One PC is running HQPlayer 3.23.0 and another PC is running NAA and Roon Bridge at the same time. So I can use my Ipad to select which zone I want to play. I can either play from Roon Server(on QNAP NAS) to Roon Bridge PC or Roon Server to HQPlayer then back to NAA. It's very easy just turn on two PC and take my ipad to select music, then Voila, here comes the music.
