Might be the silver cables I'm using...

These cables I have just give me a lot of clarity, however there's a lot of glare to it.. 

Possibly. I notice you've said in the past you use one of the earlier versions of Squeezelite. I prefer R2, which I think is a little more defined.

It could also be the kind of music we prefer. That's a whole can of worms. A while back, I realised my system had evolved to sound best with music from a certain label - not exclusively, of course!

But the softness thing is just my observation. I've been trying to add a bit more bite to my system (just a bit) recently, so it looks like I'm in a different place from you. And, you're the boss  Cool

Finally got MPD and LMS working. Just need to figure out exfat hd mounting.

RE: new install issues - carlodim - 23-May-2025

I'm really new to this and Ubuntu but I did this to get my external USB exfat hd mounted:
 
Code:
sudo blkid
Which in my case gave me this:
/dev/sdc1: LABEL="Music" UUID="B814-3F9B" BLOCK_SIZE="512" TYPE="exfat" PARTUUID="5c1d9c23-01"

Then I added:
UUID=B814-3F9B  /media/music  exfat  defaults,rw,uid=1000,gid=1000,umask=0002  0  0
to: /etc/fstab (sudo nano /etc/fstab) 

Not sure if this matters but I needed to share the drive on a Windows network so I altered /etc/samba/smb.conf (sudo nano /etc/samba/smb.conf):

[music]
  path = /media/music
  comment = Put all your Music here
  available = yes
  valid users = (your_user_name)
  guest ok = yes
  read only = no
  browseable = yes
  public = yes
  writable = yes
  create mask = 0777
  available = Yes
  create mode = 0644
  directory mode = 0755
