Connecting USB streamer server to I2s RJ45 input of DAC?

What are your problems with streamer to DAC?

FWIW, I use USB with all of my DAC's/streamers and have never had issues that made me tear out my hair.

Perhaps if you listed your equipment, or PM'd me, I/we could help. Streaming is pretty new, so things can get messed up easily.

Thanks for your offer and I may surely take you up on it. The system is listed and my streamer is a Teac NT505. At this point I am quite put out by the thing to the point that i find it hard to even want to deal with it. Thus I was considering a whole new direction with the aurender ans Sonnet. However I did talk to a vendor today about a server. He said I need to run a n Ethernet wire to the Teac from, the router and discard the WiFi extender. And that may be the problem I’ve been considering that along with connecting a laptop directly to the rear USB port and trying it. But as I say, I’m kinda burnt out on this thing. But I need to do these things and see what happens. It should be a very good machine according to specs, etc. Sounds good when it has played. Its also Roon ready but I don't like renting things.

But anyway The Teac is wired Ethernet to the extender which is nearby. Computer with library is in my office. 200mbps internet speed and a top tier Linksys router WRT1900 acs which is a gigabit router.

FWIW I have been computing since 1991 and setting up audio gear since late 60’s. I am not that strong on netwoeks though and have never had the issues I’ve had with this.

Have you updated the firmware?

Sorry to hear about your problems. You have such a great system. I am a big advocate of Aurender. I highly recommend you switch. With Aurender I just plugged my two Aurenders into my wall wart extenders… logged on to it with my iPad. No glitches, hiccups or difficulty at all. This is why you buy a separate streamer. Just like a preamp or Phonostage.

PM me if you want to talk offline. This kind of frustration should be left to the computer world. I just turn on my streamer… choose an album and listen… like my vinyl, or a CD. With the same fidelity.

+1 Aurender, it never skips a beat. I use mine with the USB/12s converter box.
