2i versus N130

Answered

Ok. First, I use the coaxial digital out to my NAD M-51 DAC. First question: Is there a factory difference in output (gain) when using the Nodes variable volume between the 2i and the N130? My integrated McIntosh has always been the master volume and it was set to 60% then I use the bluos app to control the volume. After getting the N130 I had to increase the McIntosh master volume from 60-70%. 2nd:The USB output- Is it not Capable of sending a 192khz signal? I only get 96khz on my dac and the only source that has allowed me to receive 192khz has been my PC computer.

    Correct, Tidal changed their offering last year and as yet their API is not ready to make the BluOS app playback 24/192 from Tidal. Other streaming services like Qobuz and Amazon Music you will find work perfectly.

    Tidal Connect was recently updated (in BluOS firmware) to allow the new higher streams with MQA via the BluOS App.

    Cannot comment on the gain between models. USB can send 24/192 without issue, what’s the source of the music?

    It worked using Tidal Connect, where the Bluos App is doing MQA
