So I have been using #Spotify with #HEOS on my #Marantz SR6015 surround receiver for years, and it's been working flawlessly. Since Spotify is kinda evil and bad we moved to #Tidal instead, which also supports HEOS - either via Tidal Connect or directly from the HEOS app.
About a month in I have discovered that unlike Spotify, my receiver is not super happy about Tidal Connect. Once my receiver crashed outright, but usually it just kinda slowly breaks until playing music on the receiver doesn't work at all and you need to cut the power.
Using the HEOS app to launch Tidal might work better and it even works after Tidal Connect breaks down completely, so I'm inclined to blame Tidal (although it's on the receiver that I need to pull the plug).
All in all, I'm not super satisfied.
Dass es die in schwarz und weiß gibt sowie dass es ein „großes Geschwistermodell" gibt, wären nette Pluspunkte.
Ich sehe als (Kompromiss-)Möglichkeiten z.B.:
• Apple HomePod Mini
• Sonos Era 100
• Yamaha MusicCast 20
• Audio Pro A10 MkII
• Denon Home 150 NV
Einige sind 5+ Jahre unverändert aufm Markt; das schreckt mich ab. Keins hat Fernbedienung, weshalb „Favoritentasten“ umso wichtiger wären.
Der #Denon („NV“-Variante) sieht ganz OK aus – hat jemand Erfahrungen mit diesem #HEOS-Universum?
I think I am a fan #Qobuz now 😀
Today I bought something and accidentally I noticed that the #heos app has an integration for qobuz. Now I can stream directly to my receiver. The local copy gives me also the freedom of choice how and wherever I want to listen to my music. I f**king love it!
Thanks to @rusty for the hint with qobuz.
And also thanks to @NikTheDusky for his talk at #gpn23 which brought me to #navidrome
It's not even that the devices are asleep, they show up in `avahi-discover` and I can list the info about their advertised abilities. They're just not showing up in the sound UI anymore.
My work laptop (a Mac) is still showing up, even though that's asleep too. 🤷
