[QUOTE="Agaton Sax, post: 1108499, member: 2475"] The answer to that, I'm afraid, is not simple. So I'll have to settle for 42. But seriously, in my situation, the only reason to use Tidal is Roon. Tidal as a medium does not reach beyond 44.1 and 16 without resorting to some trickery. Its native app, I find, to be inferior to Apple's and there is music on Apple, that is not on Tidal. Although low in price, it is still double that of Apple. As my family and I are already in the Apple equipment trap, Tidal without Roon is not an option. I do Tidal because of Roon, not the other way around. If Qobuz was here, Tidal would not feature in my options. Hopefully, I can try a Roon endpoint that will elevate Tidal beyond Apple High Res in sound quality as Cammissa suggests. I have no idea why I do not simply plug in my Macbook and listen to good sound for cheap minus all the add-on paraphernalia. The horror of that is that I may have become the hated Audiophile snob and do not want to do away with all the black boxes. [/QUOTE]
