  1. I will check this. I do see the green lamp light up on port to which the A10 is connect on the switch. I have not looked on the back of the A10.
  2. That’s not it. I write this post using my iPad.
  3. Not sure what happened but I can’t connect to my A10 anymore. In the display it says Aurender A10. The app searches for the streamer but can’t it. The on/off is not blinking. When I push it once it starts blinking but nothing else happens. Does anyone have any tips?
  4. Why so close minded? https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=S4ysatB9m9s https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=V89JtjisHr4 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FSySb9yGhdA

  6. I love bass players that use lots and lots of fuzz, a big muff fuzz pedal. Or bass players that have impact on the music without trying to outplay the rest of the band. I dislike solo's (bass, guitar or on any other instrument). The bass should put down the foundation. That does not always mean a rhythm line yes often is does. But it can also just be a low rumbling sound where the individual notes cant be heard. Besides that here are some pics of bass players I like for different reason.
  7. I few weeks back I was listening to a radio program in the Netherlands. It was talking about DDOS attacks and special services to prevent it. Services like https://www.nbip.nl/en/nawas/ However they are too expensive to traffic all data for most services. I don't think Qobuz can actually afford such a service full time. Most companies use it only when under attack, not full time.
  8. I picked up the Aurender A10 this weekend so I can test it. Also borrowed a pair of Ansuz POM XLR cables. This weekend I didn't have that much time. But I noticed two things (IMHO, I can't prove it). All listening is done using Qobuz. The owner has asked me not to import my collection to the HDD incase it goes back. 1) The A10 sounds much better when used with the XLR output. Not sure if that is because of my pre amp or that it is because of the A10 but to my ears anyone using the A10 would short sell themselves when the XLR output is not used. 2) The A10 sounds different from my Schiit + Auralic. For lack of better words it sounds more liquid and maybe a bit more dynamic. I sound more like my turntable. The A10 has three option for the analogue and three options for digital filter. I have not found out what it does and have not played with it just yet. I did turn of the resampling. The shop from where I borrowed the A10 will most likely not take the T2 in stock. The owner is getting older (65+) and might by closing his shop in the near future. My other options are the D2 and the Auralic Vega G1. There is no doubt in my mind the A10 sounds better then either of these. But not sure if I want to spend that much money.
  9. Dear All, Right now I use a Auralic Aries LE and a Schitt Gungir Multibit gen 5 DAC as digital source. When I first bought the Aries LE I was also interested in a 1 box solution. However at that time I didn't find anything that interested me. But as time progresses all in one streamers are becoming more and more the standard. Maybe now it is time to go for it. I am thinking about the Lumin D2, Auralic G1 or maybe even an Aurender A100. My dealer offered me a good deal on an Aurender A10. But I'm not sure if I want to spend that much. Has anyone here heard the Lumin D2, Auralic G1 or the Aurender A10. Is the Aurender worth it? It would about twice the price of the other options. My source material is Qobuz and CDs I ripped to FLAC. I have zero interest in DSD.
  10. That is in part the result of the capitalistic world we live in. Research must lead to a tangible result. That means there is not enough fundamental research. Also humanity is deeply flawed. We are unable to foresee the results of our actions. Our intelligence is far more developed then our wisdom. We are toddlers with a loaded gun.
  11. I'm think of replacing my Auralic Aries LE and Schiit Gungnir Multibit with gen 5 ubs with a DAC/streamer in one. Something like a Lumin D2. Would I lose anything in sound quality if I were to do that? The Lumin T2 or Aurender A100 are I think a bit on the expensive side. I would prefer something like a Schiit multibit with inbuilt streamer but I don't see that happening. Reason is I'd like to reduce the amount of clutter and cables. Any tips here?
  12. That is because science is continually making discoveries. New insights. That is good thing, otherwise we would still have lead piping.
  13. The Lightning software provided by Auralic took care of the upnp. I know nothing of network control and upnp setup.
  14. Nope, I'll never ever use streaming software that requires me to keep a PC running all the time. I stream using a NAS (synolgy DS214) a streamer (Auralic Aries LE) and a DAC Schiit (gungir multbit). I really don't want to add a PC to that chain. One day I might replace the Aries LE with a Lumin or Aurender. All I see of Roon is that it is some network player with a wiki database. So what is the added value?
  15. I've heard rumors that Lumin will come with an updated U1 mini. That has the option of an external power supply
