My goodness, I recognise the Magico mountains, but what is all the rest of the stuff on the racks?! I am feeling sea sick from all the waves in that room.
Mark, is the the Reference MSB with the preamp module driving the S202 directly or you are using a preamp?
These images are from our Swedish Distributor Klarsund.
The MSB Premier is diving the S202 directly, with Marten Parker Duo’s
Apparently the amps are Pilium Audio Hercules monoblocks

Just setting oladra up for the first time. 2 questions: 1) if using roon via AES to active speakers what is the best volume setting for the player - hardware or software?
and 2) is this normal for roon to not be able to identify the device and see oladra as a D2 bridge device?
Software should be avoided as there will be a loss in sound quality.
I think it’s normal.

Twas the same with mine (D2) but changed itself to “Oladra” shortly thereafter.

None is the best setting, use the volume control on your speakers
not so convenient on the 8c speakers as volume is only done via an app. i suppose i will stick with ‘hardware’ for now as recommended above - but i notice that squeeze player doesn’t present the same question - i don’t really understand the whole volume control quality issue tbh - if anyone would care to enlighten me.
loving the oladra btw - looking forward to getting to day 4 of warm up stage! first impression is that my comfortable listening volume is a touch higher than it was previously. oh and the clarity and resolution is quite striking.
seriously though - did you pour concrete inside? nearly did my back just lifting it out of the box - reassuringly heavy!
Very nice. £840k speakers. Probably £1.5M system. Hide your wallet indeed!
@MarkCole oladra unusable
i am using aes output and went to bed with roon left on and playing music, this morning oladra is giving this error, i have restarted and power cycled everything including speakers:
So you click OK, what happens?
Can you send me a screenshot of the Solution Dashboard please.

So, you were running it on v3.14 prior to upgrade?
yes and everything was working fine for around 8 hours yesterday but this morning i noticed that ‘no output’ was showing instead of ‘ditgitial output’ so i just went ahead and did the upgrade thinking it was something to do with that maybe. i noticed an error saying no soundcard on alp (or something along those lines) also but i didnt take a screenshot

The way this forum orders posts, I thought you were referring to tommytwotimes 8cs!
The room treatments (and their expense) are mind blowing enough. the Magicos and gear are a whole different universe.
