I haven’t heard of an MDC3, just the 2. There is a link here with a similar problem, I don’t know if they got a solution.
Daft question - have you updated BluOS?
Made sure that both the 368 itself is on the latest firmware (all three parts of it) and the BluOS card. It is 3.20.25, exactly the same BluOS as in the Node and Flexes that are working with Roon just fine.
Be great if @support could possibly chime in and point you in the correct direction, Roon, NAD, Bluesound? You and @Carlo_S_Santos are both in a bit of a pickle currently.
Would be nice. I wrote to BlueSound as well, but got an automated response that they are swamped and not to expect any real reply for 2 days or so…
A quick-ish response would be nice – do I keep the 368, or ask the store to order me a Peachtree Nova 150 (it’s a better DAC and probably amp anyway, and costs less) instead, then I can just plug an old laptop with Roon Bridge in and be done…
Tough call, I’ve handled my Nova down to my son a good piece of kit for sure. I was running NAD C375 for many years before I got my M33 last year, Dirac Full and BluOs are great for me I’m partial to NAD gear I suppose because I’ve had good luck with them. What speakers are you using ? I suppose the peachtree and NAD are pretty close in capability.
I’m really thinking that there is some silly issue going on with this deal that should be resolved soon
@OffRode NADs are nice (quite like the way even Node sounds with a cheesy old Denon and pair of MS-90’s) but my main system is currently a Rose RS-250 driving M&K S-150s with an SVS sub, and the one I am building will have RS-520 driving Mission 775’s. C368 or Peachtree are a temporary solution that will move to replace Node that I will give to my mom, while the 520 is on backorder for whjo
Peachtree is double the power of 368 and has a better (well, at least better specced) DAC, I just wanted to pick something up that was in stock, but maybe it was a mistake.
The mission 775 look quite efficient 91db 8 ohms, pretty easy loading in either case eh? I’m running B&W 805D and those little buggers like a fair amount of current and wattage. I used to run my older Nova the one with the tube buffer into some PSB 6.5 two ways Imagine I think they are. Good fun rig as well.
I’m currently in Cross Mountain TX contemplating my need to get back to California for a bit of time. Need to fix my broken frozen sprinkler pipe here last week got the yard a bit huh?
Yes, Missions play pretty well even from 368’s 80 watts; if I get the Nova, it should be even easier. Too bad the matching sub (700AS) keeled over as soon as I finally got them out of the closet (most of my stuff had survived several moves, including cross-country, from several households, so there are some things that are still quite good, some that are snake oil, and some that are just completely obsolete; I am trying to salvage what I can… a 20 years old speaker is probably fine, DACs or surge protectors not so much). Now I need to find something to fill the bottom on Missions out. At least they do have reasonable bottom end, unlike M&Ks which are quite good, far too expensive, and have less bass than Mordaunt-Shorts 1/3 the sie…
I spent a few years in San Jose, could not have been happier when I got out of there!
I think my sprinklers are OK, but then I haven’t turned them on since before the freeze. They did survive the big freeze two years ago though, so probably fine. Grass turned yellow overnight though. Which is probably good, at least I don’t have to cut it for a while
I also have a NAD C368 with a BluOS 2i module - the last two times after a BluOS update, ROON identified the C368 as a uncertified NAD MDC device (I think MDC refers to the slot where the BluOS card sits in the amp). I was able to fix this issue by unplugging the power and ethernet from the amp and leaving it powered down for about 15 minutes. After reconnecting the power and ethernet, ROON identified the device as a NAD C368 and ROON operated as normal. Hope this works for you.
We have identified an issue with how the hardware is reporting to Roon. As far as our device databases go, the C68 is configured properly. We have escalated this to Bluesound and will continue to work towards a resolution with them.
