Following our BluOS partnership announcement earlier this year, we wanted to give an update from R&D on the development of the brand new Cyrus streamer.
As someone else mentioned in the comments, the fascias are very nice. You can't display much on them though, for example, cover art. I've written a third party add-on that can display cover art attached to a Raspberry Pi when a track is playing on Roon. I'm sure I could adapt it to blueos.
First of all, I am a Bluos user for some years now and was always searching for a better streamer than the regular Node (although already being great). Bluos is really stable now, from my experience much more than Roon. But speaking of Roon, are there any plans of getting your new streamer "Roon Ready"? Your XR amplifiers are "Roon Tested", and I quite like the curating of music by Roon.
I do hope your streamer supports wifi 6.I loved my stream x signature.the weakness for me was I couldn’t place it near my router and the Wi-Fi was an old standard.Listening to hires music was a constant buffering experience.I used home plug ins but they just introduced noise,and I hope you have a better APP.Candence was ok if you didn’t have alot of music.I had way over 1000 albums on my drive and navigating that wasn’t a great experience.I look forward to your launch,and will you be able to offer an upgrade path ie,will you be able to connect one of your external power supplies.
Yes, the radio in the BluOS module is (currently) to the latest standards. Streamers will also work with external power supplies (PSU-XR and PSX-R2 respectively). We are also working on the upgrade deal so stay tuned :-)
What App will this use please, noting the very out dated Cadence which doesn't/hasn't worked on Android, and hasn't been supported on the current/older streamers for years, nor have you responded to any requests on how to resolve the issue. Great hardware. Very poor software and very poor customer service. Please, please can you get all 3 right to support your great products otherwise your loyal fans have no option but to buy your competitors products. Please reply. Thank you.
Good news for buyers of new Cyrus streamers. But I have an Xa which sounds excellent but the cadence app is very poor. Is there any prospect of this being updated to the new app?
