| Need streaming App that “connects to Qobuz” & plays using my DLNA/UPnP device? For the most part I use mconnect HD (iPad Mini) as well and haven't found better. Although it works well I don't love the UI either. As an alternative I use the Shairport mode (AirPlay emulator) on my microRendu in conjunction with the official Qo... | |
| Hi-res streaming on Qobuz I have my suspicions about the genuineness of the Qubuz hi res tracks. I have bought quite a few and they do not sound right compared with those native tracks upsampled by my DCS Vivaldi upsampler/streamer. If all they are doing is selling "proces... | |
| Thinking about getting a R2R DAC @adam8179 .. congrats! As others have mentioned, give it some time to settle in. I ran mine with the stock tube for quite some time before changing it out with a WE396A (D getter, JW military version). To be honest, I was somewhat skeptical and h... | |

| spend on the streamer or on the DAC ? Thk u all for the useful insights. I am attracted to a single-box solution (streamer/DAC, and I'd like to keep my MOON amp,and MOON seems to make nice DAC/streamers BTW). In this regard there is the issue of obsolescence: where does technology mo... | |

| Hi-res streaming on Qobuz @rvpiano .. Chris Connaker wrote an article about DTS Play-Fi a few years ago which you might find interesting:https://audiophilestyle.com/ca/bits-and-bytes/dts-play-fi-has-major-design-flaws/ Basically, his issue is the stream goes through the de... | |
| Hi-res streaming on Qobuz Yeah, something is amiss there. I just hooked up my Bimby (coax) to my Bluesound Node 2 and had a listen to high-res Qobuz without issue. Yes, I can hear a difference as well. | |
| Hi-res streaming on Qobuz All Schiit DACs can handle 24/192 on all inputs, including coax. Qobuz (flac) streaming via rPlay shouldn't be a problem at all .. there's no format conflict. Maybe check your app for some errant setting? | |

| Thinking about getting a R2R DAC @adam8179 My path to satisfying digital began when I purchased a dB Audio Labs Tranquility DAC which uses the old-school TDA1543. It was the first time I can honestly say I was happy with digital. After several years using this fine DAC the high-r... | |
| Streamers, servers, players - woefully overpriced?? @mahler123 .. hahaha! | |
| Streamers, servers, players - woefully overpriced?? A shame about the lack of proper support for your mRendu. Fortunately, I've had the opposite experience from Sonore. In fact, Jesus went out of his way to help me with a control/library app (Rigelian) when the developer of the app offered little. | |
| Streamers, servers, players - woefully overpriced?? The soon to be released Sonore microRendu is $399 (sans power supply), but you already know this. Hardly overpriced. If the sound quality is even close (I expect it will be) to their previous generation it will be outstanding and not questionable ... | |
