Re: Network Issues (was: Källa loses IP addresses)

Thanks guys I wish I understood a little bit more about networks - I’m always impressed with the knowledge base on the forum. I only have one router but two wi fis , one provided by the virgin router and the other by my BT mesh units , which my Kallas connect to . I’m not sure what the ‘DHCP reserv...

Re: Network Issues (was: Källa loses IP addresses)

Quick question regarding one of my Netgear GS 108T switches. On my Kalla downnstairs - I keep losing the Kalla on the network overnight, and have to turn off and on again the GS 108T. This was happening on my previous GS 108 T until it packed up completely. However this is a new unit and after a ho...

Re: General Discussion about Källa

I thought Kalla was a Protokol device. Källa does not use Airplay ™! Källa's communication protocol is however compatible. Thannko Spannko :) I thought about a comment to that effect in response to Matt, but couldn't immediately find the quote, and the article limiting it to just a couple of apps, ...

From another forum: "Video from Darko shows that if your app supports AirPlay 2 and the streamer or speaker you are sending your data to supports AirPlay 2 then that CD quality 16/44.1 lossless file you thought you were listening to is actually being compressed to AAC 256 lossy before it is sent…. ...

Re: Recommended network components

... Has anyone tried other mesh network senders and receivers (Netgear, TP Link, Eero, etc.) to see if there is a suitable replacement? It would be nice to have something else to recommend.

From what Thomas and Marco have said, I’m sure I would have been just as pleasantly shocked by the upgraded ones. My monos ar...

Re: Superkikkin

The two inputs on Superkikkin are selected with the switch. The reason for this is that it keeps the circuit optimised in terms of power consumption, which makes it sound better than if remote controlled switches and associated circuitry had been used... Can’t wait to hear what you think of it! Jus...

Re: Forum issues are discussed here

I think the more the forum settings are for prevention of troll attacks the less is the workload for moderators. Locking of old threads for newbies is directed to do prevention since the troll can not post there and then there is no need for the moderator to react. Further I see no issue for newbie...

Re: Is there a “best” test track?

If doing A/B comparisons, I’d rather use a song I’m not too familiar with otherwise it’s too easy to fill in the missing bits because you’re so familiar with the piece. Could argue the same in reverse against using a set test track: familiarity could lead to a more detail oriented assessment, liste...

Has anyone tried using a 9th gen iPad* as a control point? Apparently it utilizes the same A13 chip as the iPhone 11 - just wondering if it represents good musical value for money?
