New to streaming question

Hi - I'm an analog front end guy but recently decided to start streaming in our family room.  I have a Naim Uniti Atom HE and have been using Quboz to stream but have a simple question.  The Hi-Res files on Quboz albums are available in 24bit-192 however the maximum I can play is at 24bit-92.  I have a CAT8 wired from my router directly to the Naim and am using my phone with Quboz to stream to the Naim via Chromecast.  What do I need to do connection-wise to listen to the files in 192?  Apologies for the basic question, I'm new to the streaming world.  Thanks very much

I'm using the built-in DAC of the Naim Uniti and my settings in Qobuz are all enabled to play 24/192.  I use the Qobuz app to play tracks that get sent to the Naim via Chromecast so might this be the issue?  If there's a better connectivity scenario for playing Qobuz to the Naim I'd love to find that out.

I was thinking it was Chromecast.  I've been using the Quboz app on my phone and streaming via Chromecast because Quboz native through the Naim app won't let you search any artists, it only lets you search through your favorites which is really clunky.

Disregard, there is a search function almost hidden away in the Naim app where you can search artists through Quboz or Tidal.  I'm an idiot.  Thanks everyone for the help!
