Not sure if you would be any better off anyway, as there have been problems playing CD-res & hi-res streams bit perfectly from Amazon Music, even using Amazon's own software and streamers, eg: Unlike some of the other online music services, Amazon refuse to accommodate third party developers, so no chance of using something like the BubbleUPnP app or the mconnect Player app to provide Amazon Music access to the Marantz for the foreseeable. Unfortunately, as far as the Amazon Music HD service streaming to the ND8006 is concerned, you're stuck with what you've got. More streaming issues I see - though it has been a while since the last one you mentioned here! I do have a Raspberry Pi sitting unused, one day it may become part of the system, but as yet, I don't know how.

No SPDIF connection, my computer is not audio quality. please excuse the rantingĬan anyone advise please: how to stream into the Marantz ND8006 from Amazon Music? I have Windows 10 and Android phones, a network cable to the Marantz. Maybe it's me, maybe you need to a millennial or younger. So the query begins afresh and trying to decipher websites of software like MConnect, I can never make head nor tail of it.

When will Denon learn that if they sell decent streaming kit, they need to put a bit of effort into the software side of music selection? Not being in the mood to deal with it, I subscribed to Amazon HD instead, only to find that Amazon HD is not fully supported by HEOS: you cannot put your playlists into it. As I explored, I got into the TIDAL password trap: error unknown, you have no internet connection, flashing screens, the usual stuff with no way of letting TIDAL know you have a problem. More frustrations with the limitations of HEOS.Īs the number of albums I favourite over the years increases, not being able to sort them in any way other than alphabetical, I began to look into the possibility of using MConnect instead.
