Help me out with streaming...

Wow thanks guys!!!

Budget?  Optical Rendu would be a big improvement if in budget.  Also, dump Tidal and get Qobuz if you can.  It’s just better if they meet your musical preferences, and no need to deal with their ridiculous MQA bullsh*t. 

I am still lost.  I'm using the network input of the H190.  Am I supposed to just use Apple Airplay with Qobuz or is there another, better way

Also, when using Apple Airplay with Qubuz, everytime a new song comes on, the volume on the H190 resets (I hear a click from the H190)

I'm getting frustrated here.  I just want to stream Hi-Res music from the internet to my amp.

I looked over the H190 literature… I found it hard to follow… it is not a streamer but accepts streamed inputs like from Airplay… which means it is only “streamed” stuff that it will play… so you use an iPad or something. This is not a streamer… but cleverly worded marketing. You are not going to get good sound quality this way.

I use Airplay in my kitchen for my Tivioli counter top system. Streaming Qobuz seldom works reliably… it isn’t Qobuz it is Airplay. You need a streamer… to plug in to the DAC on your H190.

A streamer will also have a control mechanism… typically an app on your iPhone or iPad… and Qobuz will connect with your streamer. I like Aurender… might check and see if they have any budget ones. Many people use Blue Node 2… they are very inexpensive, but still should be way better than what you have.
