US-based MSB Technology is pleased to announce that Qobuz Connect is now officially available for all V2 Network Renderers. This important feature update is free and available immediately. According to the manufacturer, all renderers will be automatically updated and enable the service, giving users immediate access to this new functionality.

To meet the MSB standard for sound quality, a complete overhaul of the rendering software platform was necessary. By completely rebuilding the interface, the designers have created a powerful new foundation that, in their own words, allows them to take development further than ever before. This thorough approach ensures that the V2 Renderer is not just an update, but a platform that continues to evolve, with plans to add even more functionalities in the coming months, according to the press release from MSB Technology.

The most remarkable aspect of this implementation is the sound quality, which can now rival leading transport and server sources. For the first time, a direct streaming service delivers a listening experience that, according to MSB Technology, offers truly uncompromising sound. For those who wish to simplify their systems without compromising on quality, the V2 Network Renderer has become a definitive total solution.

For current owners, the installation is hassle-free. Download and install the latest Qobuz app on the device of your choice. Then log in with an active Qobuz subscription. Select Output, open the “Audio Output Device” menu, and select the “Qobuz Connect MSB DAC” option. It is that simple.
