I have a brand new Pro-Ject Stream Box S2 Ultra which is not performing as expected and looking to hear from others and share their experiences. This is my current setup: ROCK (Ethernet) NUC7i7BNH 16GB RAM Crucial (2X8GB) DDR4-2400 SODIMM Samsung 970 EVO 250GB - NVMe PCIe M.2 2280 SSD - RoonOS …

Exactly like my settings! Hey, @Rune . What is your setup? Would you mind sharing? Or is that something I should be able to see in your profile? Pardon me, although I know how to post stuff, I haven’t been on here long enough to know all the features of this Community. Thanks! Edit: BTW, than…

Hi @Marcus_Guerrero - I’m not sure if this will help at all, but I am also using a Streambox S2 Ultra / Pre Box S2 Digital, although my Roon core and library are running on a NAS. I just found a free DSD download (as I don’t have any) to try and it all seems to be working fine here. The only setti…

I am playing tracks that are MQA and the MQA indicator is not lighting up on the Pre Box. On the front of Stream Box I have my USB drive co…

@Andreas_Fruehwald - What is Volumio and who am I sending the logs to?

Try setting this to “None” and then clicking the “Save” button. When you are playing MQA content, what sample rate is the Pre Box S2 Digital showing on the d…

@John - Oh my effing God! Are you kidding me? It’s working!!! All MQA files playing from TIDAL and on USB drive including DSD files! Had 1 second of white noise when I started to play DSDs but they are all playing perfectly now. Pre Box is lighting up MQA indicator and the dots are changing colo…
