Any problems streaming 24/192 files to external DAC from Bluesound Node?

I also upgraded the Arcam irDAC to a Chord Electronics QuteHD which made a huge positive difference in system performance.  The Node is really very good for what it costs, and the streamer/server functions are far better than the internal DAC in my opinion.

It sounds that it doesn’t make sense to you either, the RCA output I’m talking about is the “analog” one! OK, after a little more research I discovered that there is an option in the BS node where you let it know the bit rate you want to received from your provider, in my case Qobuz, so that modification allow me to receive 24/192 in the digital ports already; however, even though the MQA external DAC option is set on, I am receiving PCM , instead of bitstream format, Which to me doesn’t make sense either !  If I discovered anything else I will post it here. 

OK, Qobuz said that most of their distribution servers output their stream in PCM, even though some do bitstream. So, unfortunately it is a matter of luck, or location and not something that we can choose! ☹
