Title: Nuprime Stream-9 Questions
Post by: esiu on 21 Aug 2023, 11:30 pm

I'm a new Stream-9 owners & wondering if anyone occasionally hears a slight stuttering while streaming using Qobuz?

Also, I would appreciate it if you could share your experience with non-stock power cables and fuses.

I've had a Stream 9 for a couple of years, use it exclusively to stream Qobuz through the Omnia app, and have never had an issue.

Like most things, I think it benefits incrementally from connecting it with a decent power cord, without getting stupid for the price point. I haven't tried an aftermarket fuse.

Hope that helps.

Nuprime factory power code comes with a choke that suppresses high-frequency electronic noise. 
Instead of buying a high-end power cord, invest in Pure AC-4.

Thank you for your advice. I'm using Audioquest Niagara 1200, which significantly improved my entire system, including my old Volumio Primo streamer, and I hope it does a similar job as Pure AC-4.

Have you experienced the stuttering issue mentioned above with your Stream-9 while using Qobuz or Amazon Music? My old streamer does not have this problem in the same network.

Last year I had similar problems with Qobuz HiRes tracks.
After the last Firmware upgrade ( 4.6.439250.52 ) all problems are gone.

Yes, my Stream-9 runs the same firmware version you mentioned. Thank you.
