I am a new audiophile and not very clued up about streaming and set ups and the basics. But I am keen to learn and get more into this hobby.
I have just bought the Node 2i and the Ifi Micro iDSD Black Label
The cable I am connecting is the Audioquest Forest Mini Toslink 6.5mm to 3.5mm
This is connected from the optical output to the Optical SPDIF input in the IFi dac/amp.
I am streaming Qobuz
The ifi unit has a light that shines different colours to show the mode it is operating in:
Blue Light - DSD256
Cyan - DSD128
Yellow - 176/192 DXD
Green - 44/48/88/96 KHz
Magenta - MQA
I have got the ifi dac with a yellow light when connected to qobuz with my mobile phone as the source and streamer
But when I use the Bluos I can only get it operating with a green light
I have got in touch with Ifi and they are asking what firmware I am using Windows or Mac (But I am not using my PC)
I have got in touch with Bluos and they have not come back to me
I have got in touch with the cable manufacturer and they have advised me to and directed me to the set up menu of the Bluos unit where I have set up MQA Playback
But it is not now playing back in MQA - with a magenta light it is still emitting a green light on the Ifi Dac
Can anyone help please? AS I want to get the most out of this kit
