Came up with a better solution...I'll use the Bridge with my critical listening and the Bluesound with my morning, background listening. I'll keep them both in the Network... This way I can also utilize the MQA with the Bridge. I have not done a critical A/B as of yet. I think the Bridge will give me a deeper/ wider sound stage compared to the Bluesound...Also a blacker background...
Is anyone using a external music server with the PS Audio Directstream Dac???
I got fed up with Mconnect with the bridge on my PS Audio Directstream DAC. The App sucks! Terrible interface and within my network, many glitches...I don't like glitches! I had a Bluesound Node 2 just sitting around, it was used in my previous system. So I am now using the Node just as a streamer and using the Bluesound App. (I just use Tidal) Great interface, NO GLITCHES? I'm using the optical from the Node to the Dac. It will only unfold MQA to 48/24. To be honest, I don't know if I could distinguish 96/24 from 48/24! Is anyone else doing the same? I hate the fact that I have to use a external server with this expensive DSD. I'm rural,cannot use Roon because I'm on a satellite internet service. Plus don't really need it. I cannot hear a difference from the bridge. You would think PS Audio would have a proper App to correspond with the DSD. Any input will be appreciated
