Who's listening online? And with what?

Apple Music -> McIntosh MAC-1700 via Sonos Connect

Due to high winds power keeps cutting out. Rig is shut down. No listening at the moment.

That sucks.

ClassicalRadio through my Squeezebox Classic and then out to the NAD C 740 and the PSB B1s.

Couple of things: for tech that is dead and buried, the fact that an app (the ClassicalRadio app) got added is a continuing source of wonder to me.

Second, I've gotten more enjoyment per dollar out of ClassicalRadio for the last few months than anything else I own or listen to. I'm especially fond of the 21st Century channel.

Delmore Brothers station on Pandora via Amazon Echo.

BBC 3, Mozart, Concerto For Piano & Orchestra in D Minor - What a great channel this is! I forget how much they program, and how smart much of it is. Found on TuneIn, through the Sonos Play:1s.

Finally got around to Pandora on the Sonos Play:1 system, and a custom channel that started with Andrew Hill, the piano player/composer. Heard - for I think the first time - Hal Galper, doing Coltrane's "Naima." Lovely. Don't know how I missed this guy for so long.

Testing the just released Android Apple Music 1.0. 10 Months in beta, finally a 1.0 release! Lol.

Samsung GS5 -> car audio with 7" display, via BT.

I've been running both Spotify and Apple Music for the last couple of weeks. To my (damaged, old) ear, Spotify sounds better, which surprises me.

Kenny Dorham
Afro-Cuban
on the system in my signature

 

[Ken Mitchell]

Tidal Hi-Fi> Bluesound Vault> NAD T758> KEF R series speakers.

Bluesound app drawing from Tidal Hi_Fi is on my Android tablet, Android phone and PC, so no matter where I am in the house I can choose and play. Only problem is it only sounds good (really good) if I'm in my living room. I can also fire up the Tidal native app on any of the devices and plug in my headphones, that sounds pretty darn good too.
