Mconnect and Bricasti


Wanted to give Mconnect a try with my Bricasti M3.  Downloaded the app but the Bricasti doesn’t show up as a connected device.  Roon plays fine. 
Thanks for helping an old guy out!!

Mconnect showed up Today.  Just tried it again and it worked with no further software/configuration   Definitely sounds different than Roon.  Have to do some extended listening. 
Thanks for the tips

How do you like the M3?  I'm thinking of trying it.  I have a PS Audio DAC now.

I love my M3 even more so than my M1 (non-se version). Does everything I was looking for.

You definitely want the Network card installed. Sounds much better in my system than the USB with a few caveats:.  The network card has the added benefit of  Melco's ethernet filtering and an Uptone EtherRegen w/LPS upstream . SoTM cabling on the Ethernet side and  Final Touch Callisto on the USB.

I can run Melco's native app ( Mconnect) only thru USB. So Tidal, Quboz , and local storage( Melco) are played that way.

Running Roon  the Melco is acting like a Nas. So Tidal and Qobuz are running thru the Melco > EtherRegen>Bricasti. This setup sound much more transparent and open.  Lot of variables involved but my personal opinion is the Network card is the way to go.
