With a Vodafone Station it is like:
Settings > LAN > IPv4 > DHCP Server Parameters > Address Pool Start IP, Address Pool End IP

Has anyone heard from u252agz? Hopefully the 'radio silence' is because he's busy enjoying his Kallas, and not because he's locked himself out of the Internet... o_0

Maybe to start a rescue attempt?

All my music devices I configure with static addresses I have chosen from the range 30-39.

Another vote for such an arrangement, mine is very similar.
What works best for me is: "Using DHCP with manual address".

Audirvana community forum

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…. ...

AFAIK, Sagatun Stereo (SS) is superior to KK and SK is superior to SS.

Maybe an indirect sign that something is happening regarding lossless is that Spotify raised the minimum system requirements for MacOS desktop app from 10.13 to 10.15.

Meant to ask earlier Matt,did you get a chance to listen to the 360s?

Yes, see here:

I thought switching goes by remote?
Edit: OK, I have seen on Hexagon HP it is a manual switch.

Yes ,we have no control.

The competition between streaming services helps.

+1,
very tidy.
What is the function of the switch?

Without wanting to stir up a hornets nest I think an old thread should be closed one year after the last post or even earlier. If there are really new aspects to an old topic it is better to start a new thread with a new subject. That doesn't mean that the valuable information in these old threads i...

I don't understand how this new member's replies have engendered an exaggerated response. I apologize if I breached the forum rules with my comment about audiophile fuses. Some "audiophile" fuses are now priced north of 3k for one fuse and I dislike the hype about "audiophile" luxury products, not ...

What if the first, or first few posts by a new member had to be approved by a moderator before going live on the forum? It'll of course be clearly communicated to everyone signing up for a new account how it's working. That alone should hopefully stop most people with bad intentions from even tryin...

We need to find the right balance, and avoid being exclusive. I agree, let us talking about finding the right balance. As a member here I was absolutely displeased to get attacked with "argumentum ad hominem" by a troll or spammer after I told him something about what we think here about musicality...

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. I get your point but if you want to evaluate a system on an audio show for example you need one or more reference tracks for compa...

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 issues for newbie...

I agree with tokenbrit, why not just ban the antagonist/troll? Do we really need to make it harder to post in old thread? Prevention is much better than to react after necroposting/spamming. So just to ban is not a such good idea since the troll most probably will leave anyway. And to unlock an old...

Harman International think so. https://www.soundstageaccess.com/index.php/feature-articles/1259-dr-sean-olive-on-35-years-of-fast-car IIRC, TC's first album was released in the same year as Linn's Ekos, so all Linn retailers did the Ekos/Ittok comparisons with this song, funny. But it was never on ...

1) What do you think would be an appropriate period of inactivity before a post is locked? 2) At what point (age of account, post count) should a user be allowed to access locked posts? 3) Do you think this is a good idea? If not, do you have any other ideas/suggestions? 1) Three months before the ...
