JPLAY ? Qobuz iPhone

Do I need the Jplay app to stream hi resolution from iPhone qobuz to a Hegel H190. The Qobuz app won’t do it by itself? A lot of confusing articles and posts.

I don’t want to purchase Jplay if it is not needed.

Hegel page about streaming mentions Qobuz only in its UPnP section and says to use Jplay.
Network, Streaming and Sound Formats (hegel.com)

I see wired solutions but I need to control the system from another room.  I could use the iphone to control a PC that is wired via USB but would prefer to just open an app on my phone and play music at hi resolution to the Hegel.

Jplay sounds better than mconnect in my system. It’s well worth the $49/year.

You’d think Qobuz would just put the protocol in their player.

JPLAY offers free trial….you should try it. $49 is a chump change when you experience the superb User Interface and SQ.

I currently use a Bricasti M1 SE Dac with network card for streaming, via qobus via Audirvana. This was suggested by the dealer that sold me the Bricasti. Been using it for months now, very happy with SQ thus far. Just curious about JPLAY interface etc.
