Hi Pippin, No wired LAN.
MANY moons ago I set up a CMP(2) PC which I used to play my digital files. With that, mainly NAIM, system I heard NO difference between WAV and FLAC. About ten years ago a bought a Naim NS01. this was before they produced 'streamers'. This worked well for me, but WAV was now better than FLAC. A few months ago my NS01 died and I decided to try the Sonore microRendu. In some ways a big step forward. But, a few weeks ago I found myself becoming unsatisfied. A few days ago I realised that in solving one problem I had changed my config and now the WAV files were being streamed as FLAC. The effect was to introduce a general feel of edge ....and cymbals lost the sound of sheen and metal but became edgy splash. Changing the config restored order .....but, it made me hope that I could listen to Qobuz streamed as PCM and hear whether this gave me a similar lift. Depending on the recording Qobuz can still sound very good, but I suspect that in my system I might be able to get a bit better - if there is a way to transcode the FLAC. I have started an email exchange with Phillipe. That bridge looks like a significant amount of work. Reading the support page I suspect the bridge won't solve this for me. I have read as many threads on this subject as I can find, for most this problem is a tangent. Not come across anything yet.
