I’ve recently installed Audirvāna Studio on my iMac, with an Ethernet connection to a Marantz NA6006 music player connected to my stereo system. It works fine on the iMac but when I play music on the NA6006, I just get a lot of static, none of the music. This happens both with streamed music and with albums stored on the iMac . This worked fine with the previous version of Audirvania. I’ve tried rebooting the NA6006, to no effect.
Any suggestions welcome
Please post your debug. What are the Marantz playback capabilities?
here is a link for Studio 2.2.2 if you wanna go back and try again if it works like before…
How do I get debug information?
Found it!

Good day @RichardADC , it will be helpful if you could choose the Marantz as selected device and run the debug again. Sorry not to have mentioned that. I’m seeing that you have an audio buffer set larger than necessary, let’s start by moving it down to 4000mb. You can massage it up a bit more if needed. Have you enabled the RAW PCM switch while you’re trying to play UPNP to Marantz yet?
I’m betting that you get asked about your musical career a lot, I don’t think that you’re the fellow that I know from Southern California 
Hi, thanks for your reply. Debug info below.
I’ve set the audio buffer down to 4gb. The RAW PCM switch is enabled.
Since my previous post I’ve tried again and found that the Marantz does play albums recorded in HD, the static noise only comes with other albums (including almost all of my CDs).

Is this how you have set your raw pcm switch? Do you have volume set to 100% in Audirvāna?
Not exactly, but I’ve set it to Do Not Use RAW PCM, that has worked! It’s playing fine now. Many thanks for your help
Good deal, enjoy your Marantz
