Hello Bluesound Support,

My Bluesound Node 2i does not output sound when streaming Qobuz Hi-Res files greater than 96KHz.

Using Node 2i Dig Coax output connected to an Oppo BDP-105D Dig Coax input.

Have not tried using the Node 2i DAC and running analog outputs to my preamp (Linn Kairn).  Preference is to use the BPD-105D DAC though I’ll change if this does the trick.

Bluesound Node 2i is setup for 24bit/192KHz (photo below).

BluOS 4.2.10

iOS App 4.2.2

Using iPad as controller.  Tried 2 iPads and iPhone with the same result.

iPad A1893 (6th Gen)

iPad A2696 (10th Gen)

iPhone 12 Mini

Did not have any issue when streaming Qobuz (24bit/192KHz) via a laptop USB connected to the Oppo BDP-105D USB Dig input.

Thanks,

FAL

  Copy/Paste from the Oppo user manual:

  The BDP-105 supports up to 2ch/192kHz PCM signal through its USB audio input, and up to

  2ch/96kHz PCM, Dolby Digital, DTS and AAC signal through its Optical and Coaxial audio inputs.

  Hello Bjørn,

  Thanks!  You are correct....my bad....

  Will switch to using analog outputs.

  May sell the Node 2i and purchase a Node (N130) or Node X (N131) when USB Dig Out is supported.
