I actually like how it is.. Dave ..and my self designed scaler.. for me is a (almost) timeless piece of kit.Yup, and that makes Chord seem like an “old” company, one that doesn’t evolve with the times. Most of Chord’s competitors have streamers and user upgradeable firmware, if not actual modular design where upgrades are easy to install. Chord unfortunately is resting on it’s laurels. The company needs to modernize. I love the sound quality. They are good at that. But they are stuck in the past when it comes to features. It’s unfortunate.
All fancy features i search in a player like high resolution screen roon or fast gui i want separately ..controlled with my phone/tablet.
Im using a oldschool thinclient pc running win7 embedded with also oldschool looking foobar2k. Stable as a rock and serves me well for many years.
