No, I have Windows and no phone, Right, I couldn't find any settings in Qobuz on their website to connect to the R26. Thanks for the help.

Some of you were helping me in earlier posts. Thanks! I have taken your advice and tried a few things. I can stream Free Spotify from my computer to the R26 using a USB connection. That works fine. I am trying the LAN connection now. I couldn't get it to work at 1st. But I installed the...

Thanks LucianoBadoe and BShaw. Sounds really good. I'll take a look.

Thanks mickey. I'll take a look.

I looked at BubbleUPnP and it can't be used on Windows, unfortunately. I don't own a smartphone and I have a very old Android tablet which I could try but I was hoping there was something to use on my desktop which I am always using.

Thanks Deleeh. Yes I realize Spotify is not that great and especially the free version. Low quality. Right now I am just trying out streaming for the 1st time. I like it to explore something I have never heard before. Hearing it through my stereo is a step up from hearing through my...

Thanks BShaw. I appreciate the help. I am not necessarily committed to streaming from my laptop or desktop. I thought that was necessary to use the streamer in the R26. Is there another way to stream Spotify to the R26? Maybe this is the mod you refer to. I am at work but will definitely...

I have the R26 mostly used with my Jay’s CDT3 MK3 CD transport. I wanted to give streaming a try. Right now I only have the free version of Spotify. I connected my laptop computer to the R26 via the included USB-A to USB-B 2.0 cable. It works. I can play from Spotify and it is coming through my...

Thanks for everyone's ideas. I received the Jay's transport today. Have it hooked up via I2S with a cheap HDMI, and there are no dropouts. I have on order a quality HDMI but it isn't here yet. Transport sounding great and it is just going to get better with burn in. So it seems the...

Thanks for the help. I checked all the connections and they are fine. The CD player doesn't have coax. One thing I noticed, however, is that even though the CD is new there are some missing spots looking in the light. I made a copy of the CD and it plays without the dropouts. It is still...

Hi, I have a new Gustard R26 DAC. I am breaking it in and it seems to be working well except when I play a CD there are dropouts of the sound. Not a lot of them but they occur at the same place on the CD each time. For example, at 4 mins and 47 seconds on one CD. The CD is new and the dropouts...

Hi, I have owned various stereos since I was a teenager. Decent ones but nothing great. I am a retired classical musician so quality audio has always been important to me. I recently inherited my dad’s stereo along with several hundred jazz LP’s. Many of them are rare 45...
