Qobuz + Computer + NDX 2

[Blacknote]

Thank you for your reply @ChrisSU.

I’ve never used Chromecast in my life to be honest, but I think I made it to work just now.
I set a 15 second buffer not to stress the NDX 2 as said in this old post.

NDX2 Qobuz via Naim app or Qobuz app + Chromecast?

HI @LJS, When using Chromecast the stream is bit perfect and native upto 192kHz/24bit. The downside of Chromecast + Qobuz is that it’s not really designed to run at such high sample rates. The buffer sizes are far too small (hence prone to drop outs) and the Chromecast stack is very inefficient so uses nearly all the CPU time in the streamer. Not only is this bad for unit response times, but not also great for sound quality as the electric noise floor of the product increases as everythin…

Should I take anything else into account in your opinion?

Strangenly enough Chromecast seem to work on my computer only if JRiver is running at the same time (maybe I’m just lacking some tech knowledge).
