I added a Node2i to my secondary system (Bifrost, NAD 326, B&W CM-1), and it was terrific for Qobuz. But it could not keep up when I added it into my primary system in my signature.

Peter, with a good streamer, the difference between Qobuz and locally stored files becomes inaudible (when they are the same resolution of course).
I have a couple of files on my SSD in my streamer, and when I compare to the 24/192 files of Qobuz, I hear no discernible difference.
