That's what they invented interns for.

Hi

Do not think so as we only got 200 units and intended to give them free for the first bunch of BDPs sold. At the rate the BPDs are selling we will be out in a short while.

Hi Alex,

The Bryston MAX and MINI are built into the software of the BDP-1 so most products that have a webbrowser can (see) interface with the built in MAX or MINI. Because it use HTML and a webbrowser it is slightly slower than an APP which is specifically written for a specfic device.

So MPOD is an example of an APP that works with iTouch, iPhone and iPad and is very quick and works well with the BDP-1 using the Linux operating system in the BDP-1.

Minion is another APP designed to work inside the Firefox browser with the BDP-1 and it works really well on a desktop computer screen.

So the idea is to allow as many different handheld and desktop/Laptop type products to interface with the BDP-1.

Hope this helps.

I'm working on some experimental stuff with a Kindle. Super long battery life; no annoying back light when listening in a dim listening room; excellent screen contrast in low light.

Looks great

James,

Any reason why the BDP-1 could not be set up to output 24/192 USB for those with hi-hiz USB DAC's in addition to AES or S/PDIF? Linux already supports USB to 24/192 in Voyage MPD 0.16+ so it should be a configuration change only.

I'm using an Alix/Voyage MPD motherboard 16/44khz right now into my Bryston BDA-1 USB input, just learning about MPD and various MPD clients, and it seems to work just fine.

Hi Tom,

I will ask the software guy - I guess anything is do-able but it would also mean a backboard and output circuit board change as well I assume.

I wouldn't think there would be any hardware change though there may be confusion on whether the USB port is for storage or output to DAC.

Oh - I see what you mean now - right no warranty if you use the wrong USB port

and nowhere in the manual do we indicate which is which

James, I just learned about this new offering while I was researching your dac . So I just finished reading the thread and you said Blue Leds could be a special order Option. Can I get the same option on the dac as well? If not I would settle for the Green so both units would match. Thanks Gary

I would go with Green - we are having issues sourcing Blue for the DAC?
