    Sense 3.3 Beta Testing

    I don't know whether this is down to the beta, but when I leaded my library of CD rips it gave me this: I removed the library and added it again and the same thing happened. My library of downloads is fine. Should I do a factory reset and try again?

    Sense 3.3 Beta Testing

    This is a simple one. When I activate the volume level it stays there and covers up the pause/play buttons. It would be nice if the volume adjustment is timed to disappear. Maybe 10 or 15 seconds? P.S. I’m using the uPnP to Zuma Lumisonic and it’s working a treat. I used uPnP years ago when...

    SenseUPnP - Looking for feedback

    I thought I'd give it a try as I did try and use the uPnP function fairly soon after Sense was launched a few years ago by switching it on in the back-end. It did not work well at all and I went back to using Roon and Groups. I'm using Zuma Lumisonic in multiple rooms. So I'm both on a laptop...

    System Pics anyone interested?

    I started streaming with a Linn DS in 2010 and they took the decision that, for audio quality, the music source had to be from a network driver and not a usb-connected drive. Their streamer/DACs only had a ethernet input. Innuos have the same approach. That was before online streaming, so I got...

    System Pics anyone interested?

    The important stuff! A central managed switch (Unifi USW-24 PoE: the big rectangular box) and a network controller (Unifi UXG-Lite: the mini little white box) to create a VLAN for the hifi. Two other devices on the hifi VLAN: a Mac Mini running HQ Player and Roon Server and a Buffalo network...

    Innuos Pulse with HQPlayer

    I was listening to Nuno's video with Mr Serinus on how you optimise things. I've liked Sense from the day it was launched. I'm not anti-Roon (I have lifetime) as I tend to listen to whole albums from artists I know or read about in print and online media. I've been using HQ Player for the last...

    HQPlayer endpoint

    I signed up here after calling support about this endpoint option. Using a new Pulsar soon after launch, I tried both Sense and Roon endpoints using a Zen Mk3, then went to Sense standalone. I do like the Sense front end a lot. I have a Roon lifetime subscription as the rest of the house (8...

    Into the Ether....!

    Did you make up your mind on this? I've used wifi a lot, some companies like Devialet and Auralic recommend it, and I currently have 25 audio systems running at 24/192 PCM over wifi. Ethernet is digital packet data and ethernet cables have international standards of compliance. It is an...

    Which Dac do you find works best with your Innuos

    Pulsar into Holo May L2 in standalone mode. Both optimised around usb. The Holo May does like DSD, so I'm teetering on the edge of buying a Mac Mini to send everything to the Pulsar using the HQPlayer endpoint mode. Should I ... shouldn't I? Previously had a Zen Mk3 and did use both for a...

    Calling Sense 3 Beta Testers, who's in?

    Hi Nino I was just talking to customer support about whether to try HQPlayer endpoint. I was pointed to your new forum and the 3.0 beta. I'm a big fan of Sense but a fairly basic user - just albums, no playlists. Besides the improved functionality, are there meant to be sound quality...
