hi,

I bought a KEF LSX.  it's wireless speaker that support airplay 2 or network play.  is JRiver support this kind of device?

[RoderickGI]

Yes.

JRiver MC supports DLNA, which it seems that the LSX also supports. At least, the LSX includes DLNA in its Features, but not in its Specifications, so I assume that it actually works as a DLNA Renderer. It might need some App from KEF, because the Product Information Sheet says:

KEF’s optional Stream app enables use of TIDAL and DLNA streaming.

and also:

(DLNA/uPNP compliant)

MC doesn't directly support Airplay / Airplay 2, but some people do play to Airplay indirectly using intermediate software. That would be the hard way to connect.
If your PC can output audio via Bluetooth, then MC should be able to output audio via Bluetooth, and the LSX supports Bluetooth input.

See Media Network in the Wiki, plus search the Wiki and Forum for DLNA.

thanks for your reply.

I tried the trial version of "audirvana" which can directly detect it and I can select the LSX as speakers.

if I using DLNA mode, that means I need to use the interface of the LSX app?  I really hate that and i want to find a better player and app that can used in ipad.

It looked that way from the Data Sheet, but I don't have one so I don't know for sure.

If you want to use Airplay, better to find an App that directly supports it.
