IFi Zen Stream with Qobuz

Leaning towards the Supra Excalibur currently. Thanks again for all of your input :))

Going to try and setup my Zen Stream for Qobuz use and in another mode other than AIO. Is there a good place online to find info on how to set that up? This will be controlled via my iPhone.

There are two year plus running threads on Head-Fi on the Zen Stream.  Many knowledgeable people on there with a lot experience with the unit.  iFi people even participate.  If you are going to use Qobuz via Ios you will need to download mConnect HD for $5.99.  Easier to just leave it on AIO setting. 

I heard that it does not sound as good in AIO mode so was trying to see if there was another way. 

I "heard" that too but didn't find it to be true. So try it yourself and see. 

Hello

great to find this thread as I’m continually working on maximizing what my Ifi Zen Stream can provide.

I’m currently using the Ifi Zen Stream powered by a 12V LHY linear supply purchased from Beatechnik.

ZS output is USB via a Curious Cable Evolved 200mm “regen link” into a Denafrips Iris DDC 

Iris output is a glass fiber cable from Lifatec into a Denafrips Ares II.

I’ve been exclusively using Tidal Connect over Wifi.  My plan is to eventually hardwire the unit into my router using some sort of Ethernet regenerator or an audiophile switch but truth be told, Wifi operation on my unit, in my house, has been pretty flawless.  Very very infrequently is there a dropout.  And ever since adding the Iris, they’ve essentially stopped.  Could be the FPGA and buffering ?

I’m not in love with the Tidal interface but it’s what I have now and it sounds good.

I can’t remember if I have it set on Tidal exclusive or AiO as they sound the same. 
Im slowly convincing myself to jump into the Roon pool.
