Tried playing a YouTube video and it did not interrupt the Qobuz stream. But tell me, is ASIO exclusive? I want to be sure that the stream is not getting passed thru Windows. Once it stabilizes I am able to play 192kHz files thru the Rega. What happens is JRiver will launch and then Qobuz closes. Sending to the Rega with ASIO instead of Wasapi exclusive seems to work but what happens is it sometimes creates a conflict with JRiver even when that app is closed. I tried a bunch of different output settings. When I tried to play 192kHz audio on Qobuz though, it got all slowed down and garbled. So that's what I set it to, and Qobuz worked fine with 44 and 96kHz streaming audio on my Rega. I have been told that Wasapi exclusive is the preferred setting in Qobuz and I understand why, that I don't want the stream being modified thru Windows. ![]() The Rega plays up to 192kHz audio and shows the number on the front panel when it switches between 44, 96 and 192, playing all files at their native resolution. JRiver is configured with automatic zone switching so it all works very well. I also have an OPPO UDP-205 which I use for playing DSD files since the Rega won't support that format. This is the DAC I use with all PCM files on my hard drive when playing them with JRiver Media Center 24, sending exclusive ASIO to the Rega. Technical info: Windows 10 desktop PC, Qobuz app, and my primary DAC is a Rega DAC-R which is connected via USB. I have an Astell&Kern player for listening on the go. I am only going to use this for listening from my desktop PC to home stereo, no plans to try to take advantage of streaming on my Android phone since I am on a very limited data plan to save money. But I'm having some issues with finding the optimal audio output to set in Qobuz. This is my first use of a streaming service. ![]() I signed up for the free first month trial of Qobuz Studio since the price of $14.99 a month reeled me in. ![]()
