@jzzmusician it sounds like you’re using the Spotify Connect feature on the Spotify app and AirPlay on Qobuz app. Or the AirPlay feature on both Spotify and Qobuz apps. If that’s the case, you need a streamer that is AirPlay ready. One example would be Auralic. If I understood you correctly. If you AirPlay to your streamer you’re using your iPad to cast data to Bluesound as opposed to streaming from the Spotify or Qobuz servers directly. This method is sonically inferior to streaming directly from streaming services.
You can still access your Qobuz playlists thru the BluOS or Auralic or Lumin proprietary UIs by the way if you’re worried about loosing playlists. You can test this out with your bluesound app - you will need to login to qobuz from BluOS.
Streamer question
I've looked and looked and can't find the answer to my question.
I use a Bluesound Node to stream both Spotify and Qobuz. The Bluesound lets me use the web app that I downloaded to my Ipad to play music.
I want to upgrade, but I'm not seeing whether or not that is possible. Most of the better streamers ($2000 or so) seem to have their own software which I would rather not use.
Anybody know the answer to this?
Thank you!

@jzzmusician try the bluesound native app on your iPad - that would be your remote. You’ll most likely appreciate the sound quality especially with the hi-rez albums available on Qobuz. Let us know |
