All:

I have committed for the Nait50 and thought I had a front end solution. The Meridian Explorer, if I could get it to work, takes up no shelf space, and lets the Nait50 be the star of the room. If only…

I have a Meridian Explorer USB DAC, 10+ years old, and all the cables to hook it up. Using a portable audio Miniplug to Naim DIN, it will play Apple Music, with a single LED on. I can not get it to play with Qobuz or Roon.

What I love about it, is that it is paid for, on hand, lightly used, sounds good, and it works. It is no Qutest, but it does have a Chord iKable long enough to make it work for my computer remote control setup.

I have a Naim500 system downstairs with a Eero network, and it all works upstairs with a Supernait3 and Chord TT2. Roon sees the ChordTT2 but not the Meridian Explorer. Qobuz does not see it either. Help!

It is like both Roon and Qobuz have a firewall vs. these Meridian DAC’s.

Please let me know what you think. Nait50 is on the way.

Thank you.

For the sake of asking the obvious: have you selected ‘Meridian Explorer’ as your audio zone in Roon.
