How’d you get this pic from my listening room?! It’s nice to know you have a sense of humor…
Haha, very funny. I can see Chris in the picture.
Is the OS update applicable to SGM EVO too ?
Hi @rocco1113 ,
No it's not. Our current line of development is centred around the use of dual "professional" Intel Xeon CPUs. The SGM EVO utilized a consumer level i7 CPU which does not support many of the features we make use of today. There is no further development for the SGM EVO, we can offer XDMS to SGM EVO users when it launches but that is about it. Apart from it lacking support for advanced CPU instruction sets there are very few left in the field, somewhere between 5 and 10, which would make further development considerable more expensive for each unit then to trade it in towards the current Extreme model, which most of it's original owners have done. Any original owner will receive their full purchasing price back upon trade in.
Just a curious question, My Playback Design Dream Series Streamer uses a propriety Fibre Connection from Streamer to DAC, I find this superior to USB Overall better sounding,
Is the Taiko able to be modded to do the same?
yes totally agree - there is absolutely no necessity to respond to such people since they do not know the product and try to shuffle around problems which they see everywhere...don't give enregy to this - the thread here is on a totally different supportive and enjoying level - its good to keep it clean...Wil, that's exactly my point...ongoing upgrades are hardly an inconvenience since the "stock" option is so impressive to start, everything subsequent is an advance. Then again, waiting months for a mod or repair to be done after an item sent back, that's wholly frustrating.
Nothing in Emile's method compares.
That's why I find the criticism so baffling.
I am in for the ET - Router - upgrade please put me on the list - especially with using Roon too...makes sense since Emile makes sense to me!Thank you for reporting, the mayority of the evidence is indeed pointing towards the router / modem / ISP. A solution is in the works, though you don’t appear to be in need of one![]()
There are 100+ very happy Extreme owners that read or participate in this thread. Everyone loves their Extreme and the latest news from Emile today will bring more happiness to all of these Extreme owners/users. It was GREAT NEWS!!!!!!!!!
I am very surprised that the moderators are letting this troll/Wadax fan boy to come into this thread with his nonsensical attacks and have ruined a stunningly great announcement that was made by Emile today.
Moderators, please wake up and at least ban this troll from this thread. He has never once contributed one positive comment in this thread. Although if you go back over the last two years, he has tried to disrupt the Extreme synergy that exists by the Extreme/Taiko community on many different occasions.
You don't see any of the happy Extreme users going into the Wadax thread and trolling just for the fun of it.
It's disappointing that this meaningless trolling is allowed to happen in this thread and definitely brings the Wadax name down several notches in the type of company that many people would choose to be associated with, regardless of how good the product might be, with representation from Wadax being presented in this manner.
I must say after reading through some of these posts I can see why manufacture participation is very low.Further to this, this kind of behaviour is exactly what shies some manufacturers away from forum participation which is a shame,
Wow 100% original value when upgrading - that is exceptional/unheard of!Hi @rocco1113 ,

Is this new as I was told MSB gave 100% as you move up the line. Of course 90% isn't bad.I was positively surprised to learn that MSB offers 90% trade-in but 100% - future safe also in the long-run perspective.
Hope I am not doing something bad now - but the trade-in value may be something that is combination of MSB's and local representative's policy -> this could explain the discrepancy (and no 90% is still good).Is this new as I was told MSB gave 100% as you move up the line. Of course 90% isn't bad.
