I have come to accept, "sounds good enough to be enjoyable" as my end point. I cannot reliably determine a difference between my ripped CDs that are stored in my server's SSD and the same tunes played through Tidal (non MQA). I get more of a noticeable change from a cable swap. Once I reached the current level of digital playback equipment that I have, the convenience of having no physical media outweighed any small sonic differences. I do plan to try Qobuz soon and look forward to hearing if there are significant sonic differences between that and Tidal.
