Qobuz Connect

In response to boxcarman's question, I noticed his particular problem with QC and Aurender in the showroom of a high end dealer using their very best equipment.

The problem overall in intermittent, but serious enough to interfere with the listening experience.  

At home, I have a Simaudio 891.  So, the newest technology.  Qobuz works perfectly with Roon, but the problem persists with Qobuz connect.

It the problem of not being able to play tracks may depend on the streamer/dac.  If so, Qobuz needs to identify the problem, fix it, and do a better job of certifying companies and their products and working with Qobuz connect.

I posted recently about a similar problem with QC. I use an Innuos Pulse with a Bryston BDA3. The BDA-3 uses mechanical relays to switch resolution to preserve SQ but there is an inherent delay. With Sense, there is a setting to adjust for that, but with QC, that setting is bypassed. As a result, the beginning of songs gets cut off or stutters. 

I've worked with both Innuos and Bryston support about this. Innuos determined that QC bypasses the Pulse internal player and doesn't allow the built in settings to work. Bryston acknowledged the issue and is working on a fix. 

It seems that QC is more compatible with some setups than others. I've stopped using it. Hopefully future firmware updates will address the issues. 

I have never had any issues. My internet is 40 mps download capable, although slightly slower in real world use.  My connection is wired to a Cambridge streamer and wi-fi to my WiiM streamer.  Good luck 

I don't have Qobus, but I am a Tidal subscriber. I want to share that Tidal would also on some occasions stop mid-stream.  and yes, I know it's not my home network, but Tidal. 

FYI

It’s been solid with my Aurrender.
