@peter73 Budget?

Are you looking for a DIY project or a consumer product? What is your budget?

Removing UPnP will obviously NOT add to the security of the streams. I really hope this is a BS marketing answer rather than technical perceptive.

In what way? It takes 10 seconds to route Qobuz audio from the browser to any interface.

What is that got to do with UPnP? What do you mean by "protecting the files"?

I don't see UPnP / DLNA endpoint support with the Marantz so BubbleUPnP will likely not help. According to Marantz's web site and guide (https://www.us.marantz.com/-/media/Files/DocumentMaster/MarantzNA/US/Marantz_HiFi_PM7000N_Product_Information_Sheet.pdf) max resolution via network is 24/192. You will have to use the HEOS app if you want full functionality. The app can also access UPnP libraries like MinimServer, etc...

BubbleUPnP has a cool feature that allows you to hide albums that only offer snippets and are not really stream-able.

Is there a way to stream Amazon HD music to DLNA end points?

Google Cast or AirPaly? Be specific 😉

Indeed. Not clear what was the criteria in this point.

For 14k I expect this to support more than one network protocol.

So, if I want to stream Qobuz with the Tambaqui, I have to buy a computer, install roon on it and pay monthly fee to roon on top of my Qobuz fee. Does not make sense to me.

@brother love Why don't you add OpenHome capability to your Atom computer and then use a phone / tablet to access Qobuz? no need for fancy hardware and the various apps work just fine.

Maybe you will learn something new. Perhaps you will gain new perspective? Who knows...

If you need to add AES output to a Pi, you should look at these: http://www.pi2design.com/pi2aes.html http://www.pi2design.com/502dac.html
