Dennis thanks for joining this thread.
SO interesting results changing how I listen. For the past few months I had it in a simple setup on the end table next to the couch so I would be more comfortable while burning and I had one speak plug in and changed between left and right channel occasionally.
Tonight I tried the headphone port first, and nothing some response has with a speaker. Which reminded me I need to connect those by bluetooth as well. Battery in headphones was dead.
Then I tried HDMI and everything seems to be fine, all the tracks that didn't play before do now. So obviously since they also played on my computer over NAS, digitally everything is fine and this all makes since. How don't have a SPDIF cable right now but I would assume the results would be the same as HDMI and NAS. I'll be using HDMI anyhow.
And finally went back to couch mode and single speaker with same results as before, most tracks play just fine and others 2 quick little pops and then the web page resets and nothing.
So where does these leave us when it comes to playing through speakers directly connected to the B2. Some songs play but others don't, is it hardware or software? Both?
Thanks
Geoff
