presmara Posted January 19, 2019 Posted January 19, 2019 (edited) Item: CAPS Zuma Fanless Music Sever/CD Player Location:Melbourne Price: $650 Pending Sale (includes $20 donation to SNA), cost $2k Item Condition: Good Reason for selling: Bought a $8k music server Payment Method: Pickup - Cash, Paypal, COD Only Extra Info: This is a fanless low noise design with integral CD/blu ray player, 120Gb SSD, Windows professional and a $100 firewire board plus a $400 SOTM USB card which I never used as I thought firewire was better less noise transmission. This replaced a MAC used as a music server and way outperformed it.

Guest scumbag Posted January 19, 2019 Posted January 19, 2019 Will this work with Roon at all??? i.e. will it work as a Roon server (as opposed to an end-point)?
Guest scumbag Posted January 19, 2019 Posted January 19, 2019 (edited) Does this include a license of Jplay or would the purchaser have to grab a license for themselves? Edited January 19, 2019 by scumbag
givita_burl Posted January 20, 2019 Posted January 20, 2019 What connectors did you use for Firewire, given most DACs accept USB input?

I’m fairly sure it will work very well with Roon. Seller just needs to confirm a few details - processor (i7 or i5?), memory (best if 8GB or more). If it is an i7, it will work very well with Roon, including upsampling. If it is an i5, it would still be OK as a Roon server, but might struggle with upsampling. I have used an i7 version for about 2 years now, also assembled by smallgreencomputer, also running Windows 10 pro, and also with the sotm usb card. It is an excellent Roon music and Plex movie server. Does not need JPlay. Edited January 20, 2019 by paul30d revised comments
markm1111 Posted January 20, 2019 Posted January 20, 2019 A bit of detail I would like to know. How old is it? Who built it - amateur or professional? What cpu does it have? How much memory? What OS? Any other details on the build? Thanks in advance
presmara Posted January 27, 2019 Author Posted January 27, 2019 I have been using it with JRiver. I believe roon will run on any PC. The operating system is windows 10 and i5 processor. I have a pending sale and trying to work out how to edit the advert so I can post as pending. Thanks
