No, the Byrston's input is not asynch, but the Oppo 105 (not 103 :( ) is. You could go USB to Oppo 105 to SPDIF
Please Help!! looking to get into computer audio.
I am looking into exploring the computer audio format, I am a long time audio enthusiast. My Digital front end currently consists of a Oppo bd103 and a Bryston Bda 1 , I currently have the capability to stream my itunes library from my computer via bluetooth to my oppo player , but the sound quality is not up to my standards. Any suggestions on how to increase the sound quality would be great. Please consider that i am a newbie to this and a little confused with the formats of computer audio. Any solution would be appreciated thanks. I have been looking at the w4s remedy and or Blink or recovery. I am also considering just getting a wadia 171 ipod transport and just using my ipod. confused and not sure which route to take for best sound qaulity.

mensch - The BDA-1 usb is not as much of an issue as you might since the unit upsamples everything using it own timing chip. I suggested trying usb as a start and then also considering a usb to S/PDIF converter.
My point was to try that first, rather than follow
the multiple suggesting to complete change the system. Small steps when getting starting is often a good course of action. |
ghosthouse - I am not a Apple guy, but I believe Chrome is the only browser supported for CD quality, according to their website. " Currently lossless streaming with our Web player is supported in Chrome only " https://support.tidal.com/hc/en-us/articles/202162111-System-Requirements-for-HiFi-using-the-Web-Player- I do not know the status of the stand-alone applications on either Windows and IOS. I use Bubble UPnP on an Android tablet sent to a DLNA renderer on my Windows PC. |
