You’ll get better SQ by having your music on a NAS or Separate PC. I have a separate 2TB SSD as my music drive and it is connected with a JCAT SATA cable. I thought Optane will not be compatible with my motherboard, but apparently it can be and there are two options - msata to M2 adapter or an external USB3 M2 enclosure. I am not sure though if this is worth the extra spend di-fi 1 Link to comment

Yes, I do, lifetime subscription. Unfortunately, at the start of the trial period, I had to inactivate Roon on Stylus, and now I can't seem to re-activate it 😬 Link to comment

It's annoying! In the example you post, the track 1 is "Various Artist" so check in the tag of the track 1 that the artist (and album artist) is "Duke Jordan" Link to comment

biosailor Posted January 17, 2021 Share Posted January 17, 2021 Finally managed to get Euphony/Roon working fully! Sounds MUCH better than running Roon alone. For the moment, I am running Euphony on an old MacBook Air with a 6 TB HDD holding my library and straight USB-connected to my Devialet. I guess at one point I should set up a NUC or similar for hosting Euphony. Thanks for all the good input I got here! Link to comment

I am running Euphony on an Optane in an i7 NUC with linear PS and it is so much better than my old PC For a first step, I just wanted to have Euphony set up in my system, so the only free PC I had was an old MacBook Air (I was unable to get it running on my MacMini 2018, possibly because of the T2 security chip). I am still running the trial version, so I didn’t want to have any other expenses. It’s clear to me, I‘ll buy a permanent license. I have a SonicTransporter i5 available with Roon server integrated. I could use this, but I‘d have to couple it with, say, a Microrendu to generate a USB connection. I need to research if that would work. I already tried RopieeeXL. Stylus does recognize it, but wouldn’t play! Maybe with Roon server I could get it running. Lots of things to try. It‘s fun! Link to comment

You're spot on: I inspected Duke Jordan's eight track album 'Flight to Jordan' with kid3 tagger. It appears that track 1 has a line with the 'Composer', whereas tracks 2-8 lack the entry of the composer. So I nee3d to re-tag quite a few albums! Link to comment
maxst67 Posted January 18, 2021 Share Posted January 18, 2021 Hi everyone, in my pc configuration I have the music files in an ssd connected with a sata cable, many users claim to hear consistent improvements using sata cables like jcat etc, but the question is: in the case of Euphony using the ramroot it makes sense spend the money on a high quality sata cable or would it be better to install a ram such as Apacer ECC instead? eventually considering the maximum resolution of my files and 128 DSD what ram size do you recommend? thank you so much Link to comment

ASRMichael Posted January 18, 2021 Share Posted January 18, 2021 Yes go to settings page, there’s an option to view 96, change to 48. It will work after that. I would screenshot but out the now. Smaragdhk 1 Link to comment

I haven't had any issues with 16 GB so far but if I played opera at DSD rates I suppose more could be needed... Regards, Dave Audio system Link to comment

c-w Posted January 18, 2021 Share Posted January 18, 2021 @biosailor You can also try doing Full-Rescan of the offending album folder: navigate to the folder from Files view and click blue database icon on the top right while holding CTRL key. If you have multiple album folders with the problem go up in the folder hierarchy and do Full-Rescan there. Also, Composer tag is not part of the album identification so different Composer tags should not cause this problem.. Link to comment

After having a good look at my albums, I must say I need to re-tag man. I swapped them a lot between computers and tagging softwares, no wonder they got messed up. I‘m surprised I see nothing of this in Roon. Link to comment

biosailor Posted January 18, 2021 Share Posted January 18, 2021 Just trying the following: I had my MacBook Air USB-ed straight into my Devialet. I have a SonicTransporter i5 hanging around onto which I‘ll try to boot Euphony. Now the SonicTransporter has no USB, only Ethernet to a switch. So for a trial, I disconnected the USB cable from the MacBook and plugged it into a Raspberry Pi 4 running RopieeeXL. And voilà, it works nicely! Can hardly believe it, am I doing everything alright? I‘ll try the same thing tomorrow with my SonicTransporter. Lots of fun things to try! Speedy381 1 Link to comment
