    Re: Qubuz in the USA is just around the corner.

    I use my Auralic Aries G2.

    As for Roon: https://community.roonlabs.com/t/is-tidal-in-trouble/34968/510?u=drtone

    Pricing won't be a straight currency conversion from pounds.

    Re: Qubuz in the USA is just around the corner.

    We feature over 130,000 albums (about 2 million tracks) in high resolution available for streaming and download. This is on top of the 40 million 16-bit/44-kHz full resolution cuts.

    What is that full decode experience on a 16bit source? There can be very little folded high res data after data for authentication and the upsampling filter data? So in this scenario it's always...

    Issue? Qobuz purchasing price for HD content when on Sublime+ will be closer to MP3 prices not the rather expensive HDTracks pricing.

    DSD64 PCM equivalent is 88.2 so...

    Re: Analog and Vinyl: no longer the benchmark

    It's in the presentation and feel of the music that vinyl ruled and many probably feel it still does.

    Digital has been closing the gap in that regard. Personally I could never get over the...

    Re: Went 4K in the Studio

    Dan too bad your room wouldn't let you go larger with a 4K TV. I sit 10' from my 65" LG E6 and wish I could afford larger.

    Personally, I love HDR more than the extra resolution.

    Re: DAC Opinions

    I'll try and talk you down. :)

    From all I've read DSD128 -> DSD256 is the bigger jump in sound quality in comparison to DSD256 -> DSD512.

    Re: DAC Opinions

    PS Audio isn’t the right choice if you want to continue with HQPlayer, from all reviews it’s best fed original content.

    IMO, stick with what you have.
