I use Tidal, Apple Music and Deezer - I enjoy the difference experience I get everytime I swap from one to the other.

No easy to diagnose the issue - too many variables. Network settings, distance to router, ports being used, any other apps using the same ports, type of router, I recall at one point I had Nero using wifi and messing up other apps that were using it every time it connects or pings the...

Hisense has software issues from time to time. I have a Hisense TV. It's fiddly with google TV, everytime I turn the system on, i have to go to HDMI setting to swap Enhanced with Auto to get 4K, otherwise it defaults to Full HD.

Nice playlist - it seems to be working with no glitches. The Yamaha has a 100Mb ethernet port, so I always use wifi 5GHz to connect it to network - which is faster than the ethernet port. Newer gadgets like Eversolo have Gigabit ethernet port so best to connect them via a cable where ever possible.

I tested with Houston Person - Houston Express. I did not experience any issues. I will check again to confirm.

Hi All No more DAC needed for full Tidal resolution if you have a Yamaha. As those with Yamaha recall - all Tidal FLAC high res files would play as AAC when using the Yamaha app. MQA plays as 16/44.1 Now all FLAC files play at their full resolution (as in the picture). I would think this...

A10 looks the part. Screen on the knob is a nice touch, I don't think I have seen it elsewhere. I wrote to Zidoo about the android (A6 is android 11). It doesn't look like they are planning to push android 12 or later. I think this is my only concern with these players. It is also hard to...

Yamaha says they will be releasing an update for newer AVRs to include Tidal Max. The list of supported devices for Tidal Connect is here Some of these devices (e.g. Eversolo) will buy you 5 AppleTVs per device - they don't come cheap. But they overcome AppleTV's 48kHz limitation - the...

The YouTube posted by @Crafty is Goldensound and it is spot on. @inMotionMedia , the low Atmos volume is quite jarring and hard to ignore. Boney James releases in both stereo high res and Atmos. I can tell you now that his album Solid is available in Atmos on Tidal but try to find it, it'll...

Spotify is very much different to Apple Cd Lossless by quite a margin. Spotify 320 is actually similar in quality to the Apple Music 256aac.

Not having a Pre-amp myself I was not able to compare but it didn't look well put together for the price - I think the Eversolo is better put together than this one and a lot cheaper.

And he files off the marking on capacitors !! I was surprised by this. At the whole thing ended up being a single capacitor - 6000GBP for that. But this happens in many fields. Recently I wanted to wire a pool pump and gate motor to the DB and need 130m of cable. I was quote R9000 for the...

I am not as weird as it may appear - but I kinda enjoyed this and also found it odd what some people do to prevent DIY.

This is apparently only available outside RSA (as in here on Qobuz) and it's not the only one like this. This would be potentially a justification for some to get on their VPNs

I saw a thread on here that raise an eyebrow. Hope he turns the corner. I am so glad I found it. I bought the Asus Space Edition about a year or two ago and spilled milk on it which screwed up the battery charging chip. I imported a replacement chip and fiddled with it and a solder and ended...

Eventually I managed to get it from Aliexpress.

The master is everything. I posted the different masters of "The Way I Feel" by Jimmy Smith - same streaming service - they are so different sounding. This is my problem when I import playlists (I go to Spotify, get playlists, import to Tidal - Spotify maybe lossy but the algorithm is...

Qobuz sounds exactly the same as Tidal - it is not possible to tell the difference because it doesn't exist.

Very odd problem. Is it possible the two subs have different sensitivity settings? Not knowing all your other settings I would methodically go through it this way: 1. Check sub settings on the Denon (Sub vs Sub+mains) 2. Test it at a higher volume - maybe it is working but too soft to hear...

Interesting that when this post was made, Atmos at home was a luxury not many can afford - how life has changed.
