Playing DSD

[alice]

I currently use an Ultra Rendu connected to my Musical Paradise MP-D2 MK3 DAC

The Music is stored on my Synology NAS.

The App I use is Bubble UPnP, and use Lumin on my mobile to connect to the music.

 

I'am pretty sure its a setting on the Ultra Rendu that I need to update.

 

When I try playing DSD, its stuttering.

 

Appreciate your help.

Try directly connect the DAC to a Windows or Mac computer, and play the DSD file using a music player software.  This verifies the DAC is indeed capable of playing DSD.

I looked up your DAC and it's capable of DSD playback. Is your software playing the DSD as is, or converting it to PCM?

So either you need to change a software setting, your NAS is having difficulty, or you have a network issue.

The above post is correct. Try to play the DSD back directly from a computer, this will help you see where the problem is.

I should have explained, I used to use Roon previously and DSD was working via the DAC.

I don't believe the DAC is the issue.

Sorted, Unchecked "Enable Direct DSD support" in the SonicOrbiter App
