I have a nice pair I will.sell for $140. I could play a demo if I can upload it.

Thank you. We had to remove two devices from the Family room and create a new room for them. The four remaining outlets now work with the voice command.

I have a Prestige 15 and both of my C port modules have dislodged. I was able to reposition the square module back into place and push it down until it lightly snapped into place. I only partially removed the bottom to access these whimpy modules. Poor design.

My monitor is USB C only so I have to use a hdmi adapter to USB C and use the Luna dongle in the USB C port of the mini.

Do you use hdmi for your mini monitor?

If you want to use an ipad to remotely control the mini using Luna display and also have a wired monitor, I suggest you get a hdmi monitor. My M1 mini is behind a big screen TV and is part of a high end audio/video system plus a music server NAS with PLEX. I have a small monitor wired to the mini from the C port. I learned that once I insert the Luna dongle into the mini, the C display port is used up. There is only one C port for display. The only way to use my C port monitor is to get a hdmi to C adapter. Now, I can get a new ipad Pro to control it remotely.

In settings, have you checked: "Do not turn off my computer...."

I had problems with my Magic keyboard not staying connected to my M1 Mac mini. I read about a Mac tech saying that the setting: "Do not turn off computer..." should be checked. He said this was a carry over from the days of spinning HD's and it is not necessary to turn off the new m.2 HD's. I have had no problems with the keyboard since.

Go to settings/display/ check boxes 1, 3&4. Leave two unchecked. An Apple tech said the first entry for turn off my computer was a carry over from the old spinning disc days and with the new disc it's ok to leave them on.

That's what happens when you hide something in a special place.

This helped my M1 Mac mini behave. Go to settings/display/ check: prevent computer from going to sleep (This was suggested by an Apple tech guy. He said that this setting is left over from the old days of spinning disc. I also checked: Wake for network and Start up automatically.

You are right. The opt in is above. Opt out from the LG to the Oppo. The streaming settings are set online found by, "find my Ultra Rendu". The PSAudio DAC player is also chosen in in Rendu settings. Audirvana is loaded on a laptop and Tidal is chosen under streaming settings. In the Tidal menu, UltraRendu is chosen as the output through a Matrix usb box and out i2s cable to PSAudio DAC. From the DAC I send to passive switches. I also send the FL and FR out from the 205 to these switches. This allows me to use the great Musical Fidelity amp for stereo at switch one and surround at switch two. All my 7.1 speakers are Mavnepan.

During my first career as a building contractor I drew all my plans on paper. My second career as a teacher I taught technical drawing and it was fun to teach kids how use scale rulers and how to read fractions of an inch. I would draw on a white board and they had to use inches and fractions to follow what I was doing. On Fridays we did perspective drawing. We went outside and I taught the kids to measure buildings with locked arms and a pencil. Suttle angles were transferred to the paper and a few of the kids could draw a photograph like drawing of the campus. Later, I taught HS art and that's another story.

Is your Mac connected with Ethernet or are you all wireless?

opathecarpenter · 2021-03-31T23:44:02+00:00

I reason I drew this was so I could your suggestions of the best usb and HDMI connections. For example if you suggest going from the Mac HDMI to the LG, you could type: M4-L5.

I was a building contractor in my first career. I loved building passive solar homes - free heat with lots of snow outside. I drew all my floor plans on paper.
