Hi Grant,
if its for a second system why not just use Powerline adapters, saves all the faffing about with Wi-Fi and the TP-Link ones I use have been superb. No doubt some would tell you they add noise etc etc, but to be honest my MoOde setup in living room sounds superb via them.
Mike.
Oops posting at the same time lol.
Wasnt sure if they would work as the sockets are different loop although the neutral may well be common...not tested that. If and when i sell something i might get a pair or wait till after xmas. Im getting something nice as it is lol..thanks for the info
Hi,
I have 4 in the house and all work great, 2 in living room and 1 in bedroom all feeding off the main one in PC room and stream movies, music, radio etc with no issues. Noise, I've no idea as I've not used anything else so have nothing to compare it to and I'm happy with them, far easier than Wi-Fi dongles or long runs of cable that's for sure.
The TP-Link AV500 ones I use have been rock solid with no issues, whereas the much more expensive DeVolo ones I had were returned as they were hopeless.
TP-LINK Av500 that I use HERE these are twin port ones but singles and trebles are available too.
Mike.
Got them uo on amazon...seems to be a myriad of av500 versions....lol will have to see what difference is with them all
Hi,
Can anyone recommend the best settings on moode for the audioquest dragonfly?
I've hooked it up to my pi but I'm getting no volume even though the dac is recognised?
Many Thanks
Wayne
I have a windows pc on which it works fine. My issue is with the raspberry pi.
Cheers
Hi Wayne,
The Dragonfly has on chip hardware volume controller so "no volume" issues is probably due to ALSA volume = 0 or very low. Here are volume control settings that should work for this DAC.
First set Moode volume knob to 0 and stop play back
(1) MPD and System config pages.
- set MPD volume control to "Software" and then set ALSA volume to 100.
-- OR --
(2) MPD config page
- set MPD volume control to "Hardware". This will couple MPD and ALSA volume
- optionally in Customize popup set Logarithmic curve to "Yes" if Moode volume knob 0-50 range does not produce much output
Regards,
Tim
