My one tip is get a free Wifi analyzer for your phone or PC and use it to make sure you have a strong signal that is not occupied by multiple other routers in the neighborhood.
Help with Bricasti M3 -
I just bought a Bricasti M3 with MDX Board running v1.08. I will upgrade the firmware as soon as I can arrange it with Bricasti.
I am confused on the 2 different music paths... between NDSD PCM and DSD.
I have a large Digital Library on an external drive connected to my desktop PC, which is connected via Wi-Fi on our Fios 2GB fiber connection. I am using an Orbi WiFi extender to output a CAT8 cable to the connection on the M3.
While when I switch filters between Minimal and Linear - I hear a difference in presentation ( as I mostly listen to Jazz, I have found I like the minimal much more).
Switching between PCM and DSD does not seem to make any change at all. No momentary lapse when making this change ( I have the remote) leads me to ask, "is it working"?
I have a lot of DSD64 files, as well as every flavor of PCM from 192/24 down to 16/44
I have tried switching these "on the fly" with both types of files but cannot hear any difference at all... Is there something I am doing incorrectly? Any tips would be greatly appreciated!
I have a VAC Signature Mk2 SE Preamp, PassLabs X250.8 and B&W 803D4’s for 2 Channel Music with a Rythemik EHP15HP2 Sub. I am also considering to add a EtherRegen
Same system for HT- I have a Marantz SR8015 which serves as PrePro and a PassLabs X5 driving the center B&W HTM82D4, my old N805s for Surround and CDM5’s as Rear Surround and a Rythemik E15HP2 sub (connected to the Marantz for LFE in theater and Using stereo Line out XLRs from the VAC for music)

fuzztone- as with all Audio Equipment one wants to understand how to properly set it up to make sure they are getting the best SQ out of it. Not sure your comment " you worry too much" is appropriate here. Why wouldn't I try to make sure they are properly setting up and using their equipment? Isn't that the main goal of forums like this? As I did some research before buying the M3, and see much posted about the 2 different chips used to D/A the music, I would think one would be able to hear some difference... I cannot. I am enjoying the M3 very much, both with my Digital Library and Streaming Qobuz thru Roon
erik_squires I have a Fiber Connection coming directly into our house. No one else is on our Wifi, as I can see thru our Orbi Software what is connected.
