Musicophile Posted January 22, 2015 Share Posted January 22, 2015 If Damien is smart, he'll keep quiet about it, to avoid another "when is Santa finally coming" discussion we had for 2.0 ? Check out my blog at musicophilesblog.com - From Keith Jarrett to Johannes Brahms Link to comment
Zakus Posted January 22, 2015 Share Posted January 22, 2015 If Damien is smart, he'll keep quiet about it, to avoid another "when is Santa finally coming" discussion we had for 2.0 �� And to stop after pressure form this forum for it to be released only to have complaints when will it is released -> this release is still beta.

Mystic Posted January 23, 2015 Share Posted January 23, 2015 I'm trying to be patient, but hopefully sooner rather then later. I hope that the hold up issues aren't because of integrating streaming services... As I just want a remote for my iPad to control my A+ library. Link to comment

Musicophile Posted January 23, 2015 Share Posted January 23, 2015 I use Splashtop. Works well, but clearly not the same thing as a dedicated app. Check out my blog at musicophilesblog.com - From Keith Jarrett to Johannes Brahms Link to comment
miguelito Posted January 23, 2015 Author Share Posted January 23, 2015 I use Splashtop. Works well, but clearly not the same thing as a dedicated app. Yes exactly. For all it's limitations, I still often use A+1.5.10 & iTunes, with the iTunes remote app - most robust and fast app available. I have JRMC20 f mac + JRemote but I don't find JRMC to sound as good as other options...

I have JRMC20 f mac + JRemote but I don't find JRMC to sound as good as other options... Same here. I have MC20 + JRemote which I think is the best remote on the market, but I prefer the SQ of A+ and would love to make it my default choice of player (but unfortunately not until the remote comes out will this happen). I'll check out Screen but isn't everything very small when the desktop is mirrored to the iPad? and for $35 I'm not sure how often I'd use it. (my eyesight is already going and just having the get reading glasses). Link to comment
Mystic Posted January 23, 2015 Share Posted January 23, 2015 Now if we could get JRemote to work with A+... that would be prefect. Link to comment

(my eyesight is already going and just having the get reading glasses). I never got used to JRMC (it feels so Windows 3.1!). And don't love the SQ. When using Screens I set the mac's display res to 1024x768 so it fits nicely (mini is headless, music only). But the touch interface has all the oddities of a VNC style interface so don't love it. However it is still usable and when I really want to listen I use Amarra for PCM and HQPlayer for DSD, both of which only work with a VNC app. NUC10i7 + Roon ROCK > dCS Rossini APEX DAC + dCS Rossini Master Clock SME 20/3 + SME V + Dynavector XV-1s or ANUK IO Gold > vdH The Grail or Kondo KSL-SFz + ANK L3 Phono Audio Note Kondo Ongaku > Avantgarde Duo Mezzo Signal cables: Kondo Silver, Crystal Cable phono Power cables: Kondo, Shunyata, van den Hul system pics Link to comment

If I really want to do some listening I'll take my Nottingham Analogue TT over my computer, my Vecteur CDP sounds better than my MacMini/Oppo 105 to my ears... So for me computer audio is more for convenience so I'll be happy with A+ with the iPad remote. Link to comment

Methinks A+ 1.5.10 (or A+2) plus iTunes, with the iTunes remote app might be yer ticket.

Yeah, that's what I was using but I was finding the Apple remote was constantly quitting on me (thinking it may be because of A+?) And I much prefer the JRemote over the Apple remote app. Link to comment
