The QOBUZ plug-in is also excellent. I'm really very satisfied. It has nothing to envy (in fact) to the Node 2i that I still own (and no longer use). It is connected to a very simple NUC with a Core i5 and 8GB of RAM via USB. I tried it with various DACs (Denafrips ARES II, Singxer SDA 6 PRO, SMSL D100 PRO): never encountered any problems. The option to move the playlist/album you want to listen to "on the fly" to the RAM disk is fantastic. Highly recommended!!! Was this review helpful?

Installed on a micro PC that need not be a computing powerhouse, I have a flexible, customizable music server and streamer. This includes plugins that allow the user to stream from Tidal, Deezer, Quboz, Spotify and other services. There is a partnership between Daphile and the folks behind LMS: Lyrion Music Server, formerly known as Logitech Media Server. Much of the customizability is a product of that partnership. You could pay a lot of money to buy a prepackaged, one-box solution that does what Daphile does. Think of the BlueSoound Node 2 or the ifi Zen Streamer. Here at my home office I use the USB output from the micro PC running Daphile to the input of my DAC. I stream music from my home network drive, or internet radio stations like Radio Paradise, JB Radio 2, or Naim Classical. Alternatively, I can access my Tidal account and stream directly from Tidal through Daphile. Sincere thanks to Daphile for allowing greater enjoyment of my music. Was this review helpful?

Que integre música local en muchos formatos, además de audio streaming como Spotify, Tidal, y Youtube, emisoras de radio. Manejo de forma remota desde un celular, tablet o PC a través de cualquier navegador web. No tienen idea de a cuantas personas hacen felices con esta distro. Gracias!!!!, gracias y gracias nuevamente!!!! Mi única sugerencia sería mejorar su interfaz, aunque con la APP Squeezer va muy bien!!! Was this review helpful?
