I could trigger the problem with a gigabit connection just by setting Roon to upsample everything to 192/24 but I didn't get the problem with the one album I have at 176.4/24 if I streamed it at native resolution and I didn't get it with any other resolution lower than 192/24. I tried several different ethernet switches over a period and the problem was the same with all switches. If I streamed 192/24 content the problem would always occur but sometimes it would occur in minutes, sometimes it would occur after an hour or two of streaming. If I streamed at lower resolutions I never noticed the problem In January I got an Uptone Audio ETHERRegen and connected my 140 to the B side, the "clean" side, which is a 100 Mbit connection. I don't normally upsample, I stream everything at native resolution and let my 140 do the upsampling, but I set Roon to upsample everything to 192/24 and streamed everything at 192/24 for several hours and never got the problem so the 100 Mbit connection does seem to solve the problem in my experience. After trying the experiment I went back to streaming everything at native resolution and haven't had the problem in the 4 months since starting to use the ETHERRegen but that's not surprising since I didn't get the problem when streaming at native resolution with a gigabit connection. So, in my case 192/24 plus gigabit connection triggers the problem, 192/24 with a 100 Mbit connection does not trigger the problem. I got the Nucleus+ in April 2019, about 2 months after we got the RAAT firmware update. Prior to that I was using an Antipodes server with a Celeron processor. I never noticed the problem while using it but I never had Roon upscale anything to 192/24 before getting the Nucleus+. |
