I have PWD Mk II and Bridge II. I know that everything works well using a PC, e.g. using foobar2000 (a wonderful “gapless Player” I used for Bridge I), but my goal is to use Bridge II without a PC. My main applications are TIDAL, internet radio and my music files, stored on a NAS. Bridge II (current Update) in combination with PWD (Update 3.03) sounds beautiful but still has some issues:
-MQA/Tidal with mconnectControl works BUT has some problems with gapless (some clicks between the tracks). By the way it’s a pity that Bridge II doesn’t support vtuner.
-BubbleUPnP/MinimServer (my favorite controller/server) works without an issue for TIDAL and my music files, BUT Internet Radio (Shoutcast) seems not to be supported by Bridge II (playing stops after a few minutes or sometimes seconds). Ok, I guess Minim Streamer on the NAS will work to stream Internet Radio, but I didn’t try it yet because BubbleUPnP and google chromecast work perfectly for Internet Radio
After trying a lot of different applications my conclusions are as follows: As mentioned, sound of Bridge/PWD is beautiful (congrats to PS Audio for that), but as long as not a specific PS Audio (iOS or Android) controller app is available (as it is available for other products / manufacturers) I hope that PS Audio will do an effort to improve compatibility whit common apps.
PS: Please apologize my English…
