In case you guys are wondering why we suddenly seem to have more time, it's because things are getting worked out. We're a profoundly different company than a year ago.

Must be a very good feeling.

To my peeps:
If you are struggling with streaming music to your home network devices, I stumbled across the following 2017 article on How To Geek dot com. I was fussing around with my WiFi-router's media-streaming-server feature... that worked most of the time. I discovered that Windows 7 (and onwards) does have DLNA capabilities... that seems to work all of the time. As long as one has Win7's Media Player installed, one can activate it. Foobar2000 (for Android [ChromeOS]) immediately recognised my music library once I activated it.

If one runs Windows 8, 9, 10, 11 (heh), it's an easy setting to activate. For us using Windows 7, it's not an obvious setting. I'm getting closer to happy (reliable) streaming to my Chromebook-then-Modi.

Adding value to the thread, eh.
Sincerely, ScubaMan.

I did a bit of a double take when I saw this and it made me ponder. DLNA is long dead (though I find the discovery protocol can be useful), and doesn't support many newer formats (for example flac!).

Cheers

Ah, so my FLAC files might be invisible. Thanks for the heads' up, @golfbravobravo .

edit -- aaaaand @golfbravobravo was right. Yeesh. FLAC's invisible on my mother-desktop. Ah well. I use my WiFi box for FLAC... and DLNA for AAC, MP3, and ALAC (?). Messy. Meh....

A few notes.


Aegir

Ehm........

Class A-ish.....

Aegir = Constant mu, high-bias class AB

I don't think that would happen. My guess is that turning on DNLA made the discovery possible, but serving the files is achieved by other means.

I'll be tweaking this set-up until I croak (or the next OS upgrade).

I just updated my Schiit stack (new layout). The only thing missing in the picture is Magni3, which is on loan to a friend to evaluate.
The Mani phone pre-amp is tugged away behind the Yggy. So that makes a total of 8 pieces of Schiit.

RIP ORT.
Wout31, nice setup! I see you are using the LSST tubes in your Freya, l really like the way they sound and there consistency in performance.

Read somewhere else:
Name: Aegir
Constant transconductance design (like Lyr 3)
Stereo: 20W into 8 Ohm, 40W into 4 Ohm; also works as dual mono, double the numbers
First 10W in class A
FR: 20Hz-20kHz -0.1dB, 3Hz-500kHz -3dB
THD: 0.01% 20Hz-20kHz @ 20W RMS, 8 Ohm
SNR: > 110db
Crosstalk: >95db
fully complementary current feedback, no coupling caps or DC servo

He's just getting jggy with it.

I'm just curious on this but I call Yggdrasil Iggy,,. Spelled Yggy.

Am I doing this right

 

[Ableza]

That's why I hate cute goddddam nicknames ending with "Y".

Ok I'll start calling it Yggie instead.

There is is no such thing as a JggyB......or even a Jggy.

Actually he gets confusing because it Yggie A2 has a B designation on its serial number to identify it
