Bluesound Node 24/192 Streaming - hk6230 - 12-Mar-2015 After many unsuccessful attempts and several emails back and forth with Devialet support, I'd finally give up on Air playing 24-bits music. Air just keeps dropping. So, I go back to my Bluesound Node. Though Node can output 24/192 via toslink, but D200 can only support up to 24/96 bitrates on its optical input. I decided to just use the RCA out from Node and add iFi iTube (Class A tube buffer) in between Node and D200. I had been listening with iTube with my last system. When I upgraded to D200, and hearing and reading so much about D200 will convert all analog signals to its digital domain, I thought I will not be able to listen to 'tubed' music with D200. To my surprise, the end result is exciting. For the past week after installing D200, I just find something is missing. Today, the music returns. I'm not sure if this is a placebo effect, but at least, I'm enjoying my hifi again. RE: Bluesound Node 24/192 Streaming - Jnan_devi - 16-Mar-2015 Hello - Interesting setup you have here . How dd you figure D does not support beyond 24/96 by playing 24/192 and it failed to ready or part of spec defined somewhere ? because this limits the products in search for streamers. USB could be good option for streamer search or digital Coaxial (any limitations here too?) RE: Bluesound Node 24/192 Streaming - Will - 16-Mar-2015 For similar reasons, I decided to use Bluesound Node as a streamer for the Devialet. However, I decided to go back to wireless streaming for the following reasons: I found the sound to be "harsh" compared with wireless streaming - I use the Bluesound on a secondary system and do not find this problem there. Bluesound Node has an upper limit of around 80 000 tracks. My music library is around 110 000 tracks Frankly, I could not hear the difference between the CD quality version and the high resolution version of the same track RE: Bluesound Node 24/192 Streaming - DelaneyB - 17-Mar-2015 Very happy with my Moon MiND and Teddy Pardo 12v linear PSU. Try that? RE: Bluesound Node 24/192 Streaming - hk6230 - 17-Mar-2015 (16-Mar-2015, 06:09)Jnan_devi Wrote: Hello - Interesting setup you have here . Devialet toslink max bitrate support is 24/96. It is confirmed by Devialet support. Digital coax can support up to 24/196.

There is now a SPDIF coax modification available for the Bluesound Node: http://magnahifi.com/index.php/en/webshopuk/product/bluesound-node-vault-coax-spdif. It is really silly of Bluesound not to include SPDIF coax so this had do come. Even BNC output is possible for the same price.

Well, I ordered an optical (toslink) to coax converter that support up to 24/192. The cost is only RMB75 incl freight (~12 Euro). I will keep you guys updated on the result.

RE: Bluesound Node 24/192 Streaming - hk6230 - 20-Mar-2015 Today, my Toslink -> Coaxial digital audio converter arrived. Just in time for a nice weekend listening. I played Norah Jones' Not Too Late 24/192 album using my Bluesound Node output via Toslink to this new converter and coaxial to D200. It works flawlessly. Now all my HD music streaming without the need of a PC/Mac is no longer an issue. I believe this is the most cost-effective solution to stream 24/192 music to a Devialet (except DSD which Devialet currently still doesn't support). RE: Bluesound Node 24/192 Streaming - Jnan_devi - 21-Mar-2015 HK - this is wonderful So you now dont need ifi iTube too correct? |
