Does the streamer down load my qobus account? Would I just access my streamer via an app from my phone for qobuz? One of the posts mentioned that Amazon HD isn't supported by any service, other than the Blue sound node which I had and didn't care for at one time. Second, Do I needs to have the computer hooked up any longer. If I were to get a streamer down the road, how does it hook up to my system,(from where to where) I have an outboard DAC that I love, so I would not look at a streamer that has a built in DAC. When over, I just pick another song, etc. Just a few novice questions, I currently use my laptop to stream qobuz, i pick a song on qobuz, and hit play.

Other than paying off previous audio purchases, you have my attention. I want to thank dbb, soix,and edcyn for their suggestions. However, as far as understanding Audio, etc. I have what I believe is a very nice system. To those trying to help, I really appreciate it. In any case there are differences but nothing bad so it often becomes a matter of cutting hairs to decide which is best, so I tend to not care much, as long as the music is playing loud and clear. Those generally also sound very good sometimes better sometimes not noticeably better than CD res…depends mostly on the source material playing more than merely the streaming resolution. The Evo can stream higher res than cd and I have found a couple internet radio stations that do that.

Fwiw it is airplay 2 that does cd resolution and my app indicates that is the case when playing either way. Have done some quick compares and no big differences jumped at me but will give it some more attention and see. I cast to Cambridge evo 150 via either google cast or airplay. There are some mp3s in there as well that I acquired and those sound ok but yes thinner and less dynamic overall. Use a iPhone running mainly Plexamp app to stream from my personal library which is mostly full res ripped CDs.
