Peter,
The mixed playlists work. There must be some other reason some of the playlists do not work. By the way, the ability to just use the URL even for albums is great. With classical albums I always had a hard time using the XXHE search. Classical album titles, artist, etc. are completely inconsistent!

Peter,
Very cool features!! I missed this the first time the notes came out. One further question: what happens to playlists that have a mix of Redbook and MQA tracks. I've had a few playlists indicate errors, wondering if this mix might be the cause. Trying some more lists as well.
The playlist feature is really amazing!!

Peter,
All clear now, sorry for being so slow on this. I have been using the External Amp setting extensively for 5.1 with the Orelo as front L and R. Really stunning sound. I've been experimenting a bit with horns for the surround. A friend of mine coincidentally also happened to have two of Bert's BD-15 bass bins built originally for the Oris horn I think.

Peter,
Sorry to keep at this. But I do not fully understand the signal path. Is there a schematic you could share. - With the "External Amp" selector, the ONLY input coming to the Orelo is a speaker level input from the external amp. - I assume therefore that there is a passive crossover, with crossover below 270 Hz to woofer, and above 7K for tweeter. - I do not understand how either DSP or the bass amps could be used with just a speaker level input coming to the Orelo.
Maybe I am missing something.

Thanks Peter. This explains many things, and also what options are possible.
Quick questions: - I've always assumed that the filter between mid and high was passive. This is the first time I realize that it is an active crossover. Is this an analog circuit? I'm assuming no DSP or A/D conversion is done. - The above makes me ask another question. If the filter between mid and high is an active analog filter, is there an option to do something like this for use with the multi-channel option: essentially use an analog crossover after the NOS1. Would this cause less degradation of the NOS1 sound?
