Auralic Aries Mini vs Bluesound Node ll vs Sonos
I've been keeping an eye on the Bluesound node 2.  I've been waiting for the App to become more mature.  I picked up a Definitive W-amp about a year ago and it took about 9 months for the App to hit the sweet spot.  For the first 9 months or so, I... 
Auralic Aries Mini vs Bluesound Node ll vs Sonos
Auralic is working on a web based interface to control it.  Hopefully, it will work in Android Chrome Browser.  Kind of a work-around for not having an Android App.  When I spoke to them a few months ago, they told me that there were just too many...

Is Logitech Media Server running clean on Windows 10?
I'm also running version 7.7.5  No, I do not have to login to MS to use the computer.  When you setup Win10 for the first time, it asks you to sign up for the MS Store.  It will then associate your computer with your store account.  You can skip t...

Works fine.  Been running Logitech Media Server on Windows 10 for over three months with no problems.  If your going to jump to windows 10, I'd recommend doing a clean install.  Use the Media Creation Tool to make a Win10 Image on a USB Thumb Dr...

Aries Mini is $550; out of the OP's price range.  Originally, it was supposed to retail at $400.

On the cheap, you could do a Chromecast Audio for $35.  I use one in my garage and it works great.  Supports audio up to 24/96.  Also, I use the new Chromecast Video in the bedroom rig.  It sounds every bit as good as a Sonos connect at 1/10th the...

Too many to list. Some of the popular ones are Sonos, Heos, Blusound, Play-fi (Polk, Definitive Technology, Paradigm. Phorus) and Auralic. On the cheap you can do a Google Chromecast Audio for $35.00. You're going to have to do some research. Some...

Well, good luck with that. You spend years searching and auditioning to find the perfect one. Then you take it home and un-box it to find out she's just bat-crap crazy. Unfortunately, the restocking fee is half your crap, a piece of your heart, so...
