OH MY, MEA CULPA. My previous post should have read, "AURENDER TECHNICAL SUPPORT WAS AWESOME!" It was Aurender tech support that kept at it until my Tidal downloads played perfectly. I guess I was so engrossed in beautiful music that I erred.
I bought the Aurender A-10 after noticing that the rooms at the Rocky Mountain Audio Fest that sounded the best usually used Aurender as their digital source, no matter what speakers or amps they where showcasing. The sound of Tidal through the Aurender constantly amazes me in the happiest way. Although I own 500 records, and many CDs, and a superb stereo system, I find that I spend most of my listening time using the Aurender to explore the wide world of music. In between, I love the sound of my own digital content stored on the Aurender. I can't say enough good about the Aurender company.
