I never had great sound from my Synology. The best I had and it was very good was when the MinimServer app was running on it. This was before I had the Aurender or Devialet. It may be my network but sound quality from the Synology through my Aurender isn't as good as directly from the Aurender. I have an Ethernet isolator on order and will see it that helps.

Do you have a linear psu for your synology?

I find the network is quite sensitive - linear power supply for the switch. Power cable can change the sound etc. May be easier yo just use Melco or aurender.

I am not sure however what the correct / best settings for JRiver are now to play DSD. Are there tips and the like out there for the best settings of both Jriver and Devialet?
Also, i am playing mostly SACD ISO files, wich is working fine within JRiver, however, i am not able to tag those so they will fit nicely within the rest of the collection. Is there a way tot do that, propably by converting them to DSF files, without loosing information?
SACD via ISO? I wasn't aware that this is possible. Can you give me a couple of additional details as to how you have set this up?
I would also be curious as to the best settings for DSD ...
Gents, did you ever get an answer to those questions? I had to de-and-re-install Jriver MC 21 after the recent MS-Win 10 upgrade on my lenovo laptop (a desaster - many apps had to be re-installed or stopped working at all).
What I forgot to note down were the setting for DSD in Jriver. It works with if I set the output format to DSD over DoP, but I am not sure if this was correct because then my Dev200 alsways shows DSD64 - even if I play flacs. Would appreciate a hint here.
Thanks
