Yes!
I understand. Hope your issues doesn’t impact too much on your music enjoyment.
Hope too …
Any suggestions for a melco server - like thinking about updates
Melco N50 S38 or N10. Both would give you a very nice uplift in sound.
I have the N1zh2 , replaced now with the N50.
But they don’t have ripper inside. You will have to add an external one connected by usb, if you need. They can download Qobuz albums directly, so you don’t need a computer.
You have also the Innuos Zenith 3, or Statement. They have ripper machine inside.
N50s38 - this is a lot of money. Do you use it as server only, as you have your nds?
A very nice machine! 6k euro is a bit …
I had the Unitserve with an additional linear ps before. Something on the level of the HDX and Uniticore.
Then the second Melco in the range, around 2,5 k euros. It was a little better, but not that much.
The day I had the middle one Melco, at around 5,5 k euros, I heard a very nice improvement, so much free flowing sound, more natural, open, textured, analog like.
I had it second hand ( N1zh2). @Darkebear has the same.
Other here have the Melco N10, or Innuos Statement with their Nd555.
But some are also very happy with the Naim Uniticore. 2k.
A used n1zh will do. Is the zh60 a later model?
Yes
@frenchrooster This is just an fyi. By copying @GraemeH ’s profile snapshot in that way, it is now visible to anyone visiting the forum - usually one has to be a member of the forum and logged in to see profiles.
@GraemeH may or may not be ok with that — just wanted to highlight.
Thanks @mook I hadn’t noticed so if @frenchrooster or @Richard.Dane could delete it that would be preferrable.
Thanks

I picked up a second hand n1zh2, has been perfectly reliable and love the sound.
I just see that discussion. But I don’t remember what it was about.
But sorry GraemeH if I posted something that can bothers you.
Can you just remember me what it was?
It was the screenshot of my profile you’d posted @frenchrooster, but it’s now gone I see.
No big issue.

I have the same Melco as yours too👍 -N1zh2
What do you think about the price of Melco N1-S38.? €14000 in the Netherlands
What had you before ?
It was Synology, the difference was magnificent since “first spin”
I am lucky - in Germany its only 13.999,00 € in my former post I am referring the n1z2 - sorry had written it a bit confusing
Is it really such uplift to N1ZH ? This is only the storage compartment - I am not planning to stream with the Melco - only want it as a server.
Hopefully not an uplift with better defined bass Love it, but in my room it reduces bass weight. ND555 brought a lot of bass definition but in some cases a lighter bass.
Found an N1ZH for a good price nearby at a dealet - but sadly it is silver …#
Should I only look for the EX-series ones?
