This way you can vary based on usage type, casual/wife/discovering new stuff = Roon/HQP and listening session = Stylus/HQP, without changing audio systems in Euphony This sort of scenario might be useful for fools like me that already have the HQPe and Roon licenses anyway... In HQP I do not use any filters btw so the signal is just about as pure as just Stylus by itself flkin 1 Pink Faun Streamer —> Pink Faun DAC --> Ayre AX5 --> Paradigm S8 Link to comment
Popular Post m3lraaHnevetS Posted April 1, 2022 Popular Post Share Posted April 1, 2022 I asked these questions yesterday and got the following response 1 = will there be an update of HQP soon? 2 = can we use convolution filters in v4? 3 = what will the upgrade from version 3 to version 4 cost? 4 = when can we expect version 4? 1. There will be no update of HQPe for v3. Latest versions are not compatible with v3 OS. In v4, HQPe will have updates independent of Euphony updates. 2. Yes, we are preparing use of convolution filters for Stylus playback. 3. Last upgrade from v2 to v3 was around $100. It is not decided yet, but will be no more than that, maybe less. 4. Still working hard on it… Sorry, no date to really promise. StreamFidelity, 87mpi, RickyV and 4 others 6 1 Pink Faun Streamer —> Pink Faun DAC --> Ayre AX5 --> Paradigm S8 Link to comment
m3lraaHnevetS Posted August 10, 2022 Share Posted August 10, 2022 Hi guys, Does anyone know if Željko is still working for Euphony? He did something special for me in v3 to help streaming from Qobuz work in my setup. But the new guy Robert does not want to do the same trick in v4, which renders v4 useless for me. The config file needs a flag set to "1" but I am a linux noob so I have no idea how to do it myself... Can we still ssh into v4 anyway?

m3lraaHnevetS Posted August 10, 2022 Share Posted August 10, 2022 yes Robert has replied to my support ticket (and also to my contact form later when I cancelled my sub on v4) guess maybe Z is on holiday... Any idea on shh-ing into v4 and enabling a flag in config? Or maybe I should just wait until Z is back in the office to hopefully do it for me...

m3lraaHnevetS Posted September 30, 2022 Share Posted September 30, 2022 For those of you who like Stylus for best sound, and like me, also have Roon and HQPe licenses lying around... you can; activate Stylus + HQPe, so you can use Stylus for serious listening and the rest of the time use Roon (running on a different machine somewhere in your setup) into HQPe while discovering new music, adding stuff to the library etc. Curious if any of you are using this model Pink Faun Streamer —> Pink Faun DAC --> Ayre AX5 --> Paradigm S8 Link to comment
m3lraaHnevetS Posted October 1, 2022 Share Posted October 1, 2022 I have Roon running on NAS and Stylus + HQPe on streamer, that way I can use both Roon and Stylus apps without changing any settings in Euphony. And as said before I agree Roon degrades sound quality but for casual listening and music discovery at low volume it is okay playing through HQPe. for active listening I switch to Stylus without any effort, just activate ALSA output instead of HQPe in de Stylus app and go.

Is anyone who has already trod this path with Stylus and/or HQP willing to share their thoughts/recommendations? I have seen that Stylus requires mono R/L files. Am also trying to understand if convolution is CPU intensive as my existing Stylus/HQPe server is an 11i3 NUC, Hi Dave, I also bought the UNIK and had look at doing it myself using Acourate but quickly decided to have Mitch Barnett do it for 750 USD Convolution is not CPU intensive. I use the files in Roon running on a NAS and in Stylus/HQPe on a PF 2.16. In both scenarios I hardly see any impact on CPU usage. The result is a nice uptick in clarity, the sound snaps into focus once you active the filter. Well worth the investment. Good luck on your journey Cheers Steven davide256 and The Computer Audiophile 1 1 Pink Faun Streamer —> Pink Faun DAC --> Ayre AX5 --> Paradigm S8 Link to comment
