Glare with Qobuz…


Noticed glare and slight edginess especially in the midrange and lower treble with Qobuz lately. Going on for about 6 days now. 

No such issues with Tidal or my analog front end. No changes in the system or network. 
 

Anyone noticed this or is it just me?

Forgot to mention…this glare is mostly heard on high res albums. Redbook version sounds more or less fine. 
 

I’ll start troubleshooting. Rebooted roon core. No difference. 

Thanks for the album recommendation @jerryg123 will check it out. 
 

We had a power outage last week. I bounced my Bricasti DAC but didn’t bother rebooting network components. Something must’ve pooped and never recovered. We’ll see what it is. Rebooting all network components.

@lalitk I can’t really use native Qobuz with my Bricasti DAC. I don’t have a streamer. My options are just Roon or MConnect.
Just
rebooted all access points. The gateway and the one my Bricasti is hardwired to are really the most critical ones. It sounds better! So it looks like EERO pooped and never recovered. I’ll reboot the main router tomorrow and do another round of mesh restarts. I’ll see if it’s fully back to normal after that.

 

Thanks all!

 

@yoyoyaya you got it right. But unfortunately my router is on another floor in the house. I use mesh. And an access point is what the Bricasti is wired too. To hardwire to router I need to drill holes, run wires etc.

Rebooting the eero access points remediated the issues. Qobuz is back to sounding good! Thanks again everyone!!!
