I am no longer getting MQA?


I notice that with my Auralic Aries G2.1 streamer that I no longer get MQA. I now get flac 48KHZ 24 bit at the most where I used to get MQA. The sound is still good but it is not MQA. I know that there was a problem with Tidal and many streaming devices with regards to no more MQA. Does anyone know what the issue is and am I now only going to get flac 48KHZ 24 bit where I used to get MQA or at least Auralic’s version of MQA?

I should note that my Auralic app used to indicate MQA when being used but now indicates FLAC on albums which should be MQA.
It may be you are using the wrong filter setting? In my Brooklyn, if you change the filter to anything but apodizing MQA is disabled.
Hi Mitch -
Are you using the DS Lighting control app on an iPhone?
When looking at mine (Version 4.7, so not the most recent) and used to control an Aries Mini):

Select "Lightning setup" under Settings
From there, select "Lightning Device" (for me, it shows My Aries)
Scroll down just a little and find "Additional Operations"
Open "Additional Operations" and scroll down to near the bottom
Find "MQA Playback Setup" and also "Streaming Quality"
Under "MQA Playback Setup", is MQA Pass-through (to an MQA enabled device) selected?
Then, under "Streaming Quality" (for Tidal) is FLAC MQA showing or do you see FLAC Lossless?

Maybe somehow FLAC Lossless got selected instead of the FLAC MQA option.

Might be of use if you’ve not checked already.

Lucky man, that's like being re-tested for covid and getting negative after a false positive first test.

My PS Audio DirectStream DAC is the same way. It has the Bridge II card with an ethernet connection.  It used to play MQA with Tidal, but it doesn't anymore.   I called PS Audio. They didn't know why it changed.  They said I'm getting the same quality.  I haven't followed up with anyone.  I use MConnect.
