    Taiko Audio XDMS - Extreme Direct Music Server Software

    I do the NSM with gapless last night. Thank you Ed! I am noticing a much more refined sound quality. Not sure if its just me or if others also felt the same way? Just for the record, I had NSM installed previously which was outstanding in terms of sound quality.

    Taiko Audio SGM Extreme : the Crème de la Crème

    Thank you Emile & Khyle! Its almost 4:20 am here. Did a brief listen.. I am speechless. The sound quality has increased tremendously. The instruments do sound tighter and the separation is very obvious has more weight to it. Thank you again team Taiko!!! I am going to get some sleep for now.

    Taiko Audio SGM Extreme : the Crème de la Crème

    Hi Christian, Thank you. I went and got a dedicated iPad for this purpose. I thought you need the WiFi network (connected to TaikoAudio WiFi) in order to use the ControlApp. Could you please elaborate on what do you mean by "...just switch Wi-Fi networks as needed/desired" ? Thanks

    May be this has been answered already? Should I get a dedicated iPad/Tablet for using XDMS? Nothing else will be used with this? What is the recommendation? iPad or an Android tablet?
