Chris is going to review the opticalRendu and we are updating his unit with the feature. He will be the first person to have the feature and will break the news then. bunno77 1 SONORE computer audio | opticalRendu | ultraRendu | microRendu | Signature Rendu SE | endPoint | opticalModule DX | Power Supplies | Link to comment
jvvita Posted May 16, 2019 Share Posted May 16, 2019 I can see your point. But for me, as I am in a rural zone, with not a state-of-the-art internet connections (using radio and not cable connection), running from cache has its value, especially on a rainy and windy day. Link to comment

jvvita Posted May 16, 2019 Share Posted May 16, 2019 Yes and no. Qobuz allows for offline content, but is encrypted in a way that only Qobuz client has access to it. Today I run a Surface pro, with Qobuz windows app. When I have access to fast and reliable connection, I download my favourite songs and albums on to the app (almost 300 GB download so far). Then I stream to UltraRendu using Linn's songcast protocol (with all its limitations). That's because the Qobuz app sees the UltraRendu in dlna but refuses to play music through it. Link to comment

It’s the OS, (so must be SW related), and it can be the Rendu’s or only the SonicTransporter’s, or both. Correct Jesus ? I think we have to guess in the direction what what would be nice to have from a well known service, player etc. I think it’s not Netflix support or anything that is multichannel, unless the SonicTransporter has a HMDI interface. (I don’t think mine have, but newer once have) So maybe something like support for: Airplay Chromecast (substitute) AES67 etc....(need hardware?] I hope to see some good suggestions from what people would like to have. What’s missing, or what do similar products have, that Sonore and SMG hasn’t implemented yet. Link to comment

esmit Posted May 17, 2019 Share Posted May 17, 2019 I am becoming allergic to we won't say anything but it is great stuff coming up, let us all put pressure on someone else (this site's owner even) to reveal it. Ok, I admit it is probably because I got burnt when paying for LH labs Wave... And do not be afraid, I will probably fall for the etherRegen, optical module and other uptone and sonore combinations.

Sonore always delivers on its promises. Perhaps people don’t realize just how much time it takes to develop great products. I’m really looking forward to putting an opticalRendu in my music system.

Perhaps people don’t realize just how much time it takes to develop great products. I’m really looking forward to putting an opticalRendu in my music system. My intention was to explain that I became sensitive because of LH, their behaviour caused even being too sensitive for regular, innocent enthusiasm from honourable companies I have bought several items from and probably will buy again. Sonore or Uptone has not and would not behave in that way, and I hope by explaining this a little better to take away that link. Indeed, that would be an insult and that was absolutely not my intention. Superdad 1 Link to comment
