Glare with Qobuz…

Noticed glare and slight edginess especially in the midrange and lower treble with Qobuz lately. Going on for about 6 days now. 

No such issues with Tidal or my analog front end. No changes in the system or network. 
 

Anyone noticed this or is it just me?

Using bluos to get Qobuz so my experience is worthless to the op's problems. Once again the os proves to be of major importance in streaming.

I do not find any glare what so ever on Qobuz. No changes what so ever. I listen to Qobuz about three hours a day. I listen to about one vinyl album a day… so, I constantly have that ruler.

I recently read where the said a 16 bit sounded better than streaming.  I played one of my CD’s about 2 months ago and I didn’t want to admit it sounded better than Tidal.  For me streaming is convenient,

Just started my 30 day with Qobuz on Monday and so far so good.
We had a power outage as well. A bird in a transformer and BOOM, out went the power for a few hours. Haven’t noticed any change in the sound.

@yoyoyaya you got it right. But unfortunately my router is on another floor in the house. I use mesh. And an access point is what the Bricasti is wired too. To hardwire to router I need to drill holes, run wires etc.

Rebooting the eero access points remediated the issues. Qobuz is back to sounding good! Thanks again everyone!!!
