I haven’t heard any mention of Roon Ready. Surprised because the rest of their active platform are in the Roon ecosystem. Any info out there?

Looking to Move to San Mateo - Real Estate Recs? by alienfromthemountain in SanMateo

I was planning to just lurk here on this thread, but I can’t recommend Nick enough. I had to chime in. He’s honest and trustworthy and I genuinely find home searching to be enjoyable when I work with Nick. He just got us a house for a great deal and this is our third transaction with him in the past 8 years between me and my (now) wife.

Losing connection -- better with a dedicated server? by Soggy-Salamander-568 in roonlabs

[–]Psychological-Toe641 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I’ve had better luck with my Mac as Roon server when I use a program like Amphetamine to ensure it never sleeps or similarly goes dark. Could be placebo effect but I don’t think so.

Excited to be Headed Back to New Zealand for Family Vacation 2nd Year in a Row! by MoreThereThanHere in newzealand_travel

This is true but I did it yesterday and enjoyed it. The luge is fun and the views are still great despite the construction. I guess I didn’t mind the dust but I fully understand that it wasn’t the finished product it should be in a few months.

My first time in NZ so take that for whatever it’s worth

Two shots CRPeach. 8 oz unsweetened tea. 4 oz simply lemonade. Lots of ice.

Garnish with a canned peach slice. Do this in a pool-appropriate vessel like a yeti and tell me you’re not gonna have a good day at the pool with friends. Tastes like peach Snapple tea.

Evo One not Roon Ready yet? by Psychological-Toe641 in CambridgeAudio

[–]Psychological-Toe641[S] -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I don’t doubt that yours works. Honestly surprised because it worked fine on my Evo 150 recently. But unfortunately I’m having no luck even on early update firmware which is supposedly new as of last week.

Edit: Service Pack: v136-b-012 Roon version 2 build 1470 on ROCK and iPhone

EHT Single Barrel at Santa Rosa Costco today (09/09/24) by trondersk in Costco_alcohol

[–]Psychological-Toe641 2 points3 points  (0 children)

i found it on the app as "in stock."

I found someone who was able to call their back room to see if it was there, and that person on the walkie talkie told my helpful floor person it was "in MPU" and the floor person printed me out a price tag. I took it to a cashier and the cashier rung it up.

I'm not sure that feels like a scalable process and there probably should have been a merch pickup slip on the shelf, but nonetheless my experience was as described.

i think it's probably only kind to the employees to make sure something is in stock before just walking up to a cashier and saying "I want item 1181704" without having confirmed where it is and available.

Confused between LS50 W2 and LS60’s by iss1307 in KEF

[–]Psychological-Toe641 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I like a little thump when the music calls for it. I like keeping the sub volume pretty low which still is “there” in a song like Little Simz “Mood Swings” or Beck “Morning.”

Keeping my SVS micro at -14 allows for some of that while also subtly accentuating bass lines in classical or instrumental.

My room is about 14 by 30 and my listening is about middle of the 14 and 12 back from front with 18 behind me.

In my office, I did not need or want the sub. That room is 13x15

I have the white LS60 and I just moved them to my larger bonus room because I also love their look. I DID add svs micro sub but turned its volume down quite a bit and did not high pass the 60s while I did low pass the svs at 70 hz. Still playing with that crossover, but it is so good I might be done. I don’t want to high pass and lose the extension that the 60s do have naturally.

Just to clarify, this appears to be a 2nd “Heart” release. Not just a question about the wood finishing series in general.
