i am playing with my Rose150B network streamer; i know, it's a piece of junk and no one likes them, but for now as i build toward my reference system (i will replace the Rose with a Studio Player by WADAX) my simple Rose does not have any problems as noted previously....and the DAC in the Rose somewhat sucks, but does the job ok.
Quboz cuts off beginning of songs
Here's my current setup:
Fiber Ethernet 300m>Innuos Pulse>Bryston BDA3>Preamp
and my previous setup:
Fiber Ethernet>Bluesound Node 2i w LPS>Schiit Bifrost 2/64>preamp
In both configurations, when the resolution changes, the beginning half second or so is either cut off, or there's a brief stutter. If I hit "Back" it plays normally. If I go back to the previous song and make it change the resolution, the same happens. It appears to me that Quboz starts the song before the DAC has changed resolution. So, new streamer, new DAC, same issue.
I've been working with Innuos support to determine if there's a solution using their logs as a view into what's happening. That's still ongoing. But I don't see anyone else with this issue posting about it so I thought I would see if anyone else is experiencing this, or whether anyone has thoughts about what I'm experiencing.
Is it possible that both DACs have an issue with not switching quickly enough? But I've also experienced this using a Chromecast to stream Quboz, so that points to Quboz as the issue. But again, nobody has posted about this.
Any ideas?
