In Reply to: RE: Apple TV is now on sale at $69... posted by bullethead on May 17, 2015 at 07:45:19
But I really like the search function of QOBUZ for Classical music. If QOBUZ were on the SONOS, I'd be done.
With QOBUZ I type 'BACH'in the search box and you get a listing of 13,699 albums. OK, there are some duplicates, but it's a nice starting point!
I may get a TV in the listening room, but it has to share space with two turntables, so it can't be too wide.
We have no desire to be paying $100+ a month for cable, so Apple TV or some other internet box would make sense. living a couple blocks from a library branch makes movie rental pretty cheap.
Still have no idea why AC outlet Ethernet box hooked to the Marantz NA-7004 causes noise in the system, but it does, and only while data is streaming. Seems to be associated with a new tube preamp I recently acquired. Might try a shorter cable from the AC outlet Ethernet box or try running a 50 ft length of cable from the Ethernet hub up the stairs to the loft to see if that cures the noise problem.

Qobuz is on Sonos! This is what I am listening to as I type this message.
Try writing a polite email to Sonos tech support ...

But if I were, this is what I would be listening to. Just popped up on QOBUZ, new release from Harmonia Mundi.Yes, I MIGHT be able to take my SONUS to Europe and link up to QOBUZ there, but here in the US there is no QOBUZ on the SONOS likely because QOBUZ has no license to stream here in the US as yet (if ever). :-(

I am in Massachusetts now. Set it all up here.
Time to update my AA profile ...
And BTW, I was listening to Fray yesterday.
Did you buy your SONOS system in Europe or set it up for Service over there?
I still do not see QOBUZ on my on my list of supported services under Service Settings or SONOS Labs.
I contacted SONOS directly some time ago and they stated that QOBUZ was not supported by SONOS in the US at this time.
Guess I should have taken both the speaker and the Bridge to Europe with me last year. =:-0
Some Sonos components bought in Russia, others here ...
I am not sure how Sonos support works. I could not see TIDAL in supported services here in US for a couple of months, and then it appeared. Same thing with Qobuz.
I wish I could help more.
Tidal was on a 'beta' basis when I first set it up. I don't really understand what components actually store the configuration.
The speaker or the bridge?
Not the computer because it need not be on to play the system.
If you are enjoying QOBUZ on the SONOS here I would suggest that you DO NOT do a software update no matter how hard they get you to try, as the latest software upgrade done here shows no QOBUZ.
Yes, set it up here.
Good advice on software updates, thx.
I doubt if this is going to work as Apple don't support FLAC
The Well Tempered Computer
Perhaps it's no longer FLAC?
nt
to the NA-7004 optical input or do I need some kind of a converter?
For stereo sources, the ATV optical output will be 16/48k PCM which the Marantz should handle just fine. ALAC is used to compress the stream for wireless transmission; it is encoded in the computer and decoded in the ATV.
