    Do you have to pay extra to stream Qobuz/Tidal? I saw that mentioned in a different review, as in, extra to Volumio, not just the streaming subscription.
    Ziro power cables -> Modded Marantz CD63SE or Bluesound -> Roksan K3 Dac -> RFC Venus -> Onix DNA 45 -> LS25 -> Proac D18

    if you want it within volumio then yes, but you could sent it to it from say your pc for free.

    the primo deal may give you a period for free

    Oh my god! There's nothing wrong with the bidet is there?

    “Nothing discloses real character like the use of power. It is easy for the weak to be gentle. Most people can bear adversity. But if you wish to know what a man really is, give him power. This is the supreme test. It is the glory of Lincoln that, having almost absolute power, he never abused it, except on the side of mercy".

    “You see these dictators on their pedestals, surrounded by the bayonets of their soldiers and the truncheons of their police ... yet in their hearts there is unspoken fear. They are afraid of words and thoughts: words spoken abroad, thoughts stirring at home -- all the more powerful because forbidden -- terrify them. A little mouse of thought appears in the room, and even the mightiest potentates are thrown into panic.”

    "You don't have free will. You have the appearance of free will.”

    “There's a war out there, old friend. A world war. And it's not about who's got the most bullets. It's about who controls the information. What we see and hear, how we work, what we think... it's all about the information!”

    If you have an Android tablet or smartphone you can use Bubble uPnP app to control Qobuz, Tidal plus others.

    No need to pay for Volumio just use the standard Volumio and Bubbles your uncle

    I think a more interesting comparison is with the Touch Screen version they sell which given the screen etc seems to be a very fair price .

    An update.

    The Primo is now on it's way to the next participant so it would be great to hear what Edward has to say about it.
