CD v Streamed
Great topic georgehifi, im interested to see what comes out. Im not sure where you get your 10.6 megabits/min figure, but with Internet Providers offering 100mbps speeds, 10.6 mbpm is no problem. Please correct me if I am wrong, but here is my 2 c... 
Takedown of pricey servers, streamers OCD HiFi guy
Exactly audio2design.  What is so hard to understand?  If bitstream A is identical to bitstream B, they will sound identical.

I agree with him about Servers and Streamers. Just so the cpu can handle the load, the bit stream entering a DAC is identical regardless of cost. The feature I would be willing to pay extra for, and can be expensive, is the User Interface or Human...

Yes.  I have never tried the Windows version, but their website says PC or MAC. 
New to Qobuz and need help
When I was using my MacBook as a Tidal streamer, I used "Jump Desktop" software to access It from my iPhone/iPad.  It is secure and worked very well for me. 
Which speakers to be ''in'' the music?
+1 for Magnepans My 2 cents: Their SQ / $$ ratio seems very high.  Driving them with 220W per channel, the soundstage and imaging is impressive.    They sound OK anywhere in the room, but when you get in the sweet spot, the music transforms into 3... 
Why are digital streaming equipment manufacturers refusing to answer me?
Its incorrect because its wrong. Your whole premise is false................Not only wires, I can tell the difference between lots of things- wire on the floor vs elevated, wire going one way vs another, warmed up vs cold, on springs vs cones, on ... 
MoOde
Hi, I am also using the Moode image in a Raspberry Pi 4. I’m also using mconnect for the Qobuz UI. I use USB into my DAC and it sounds incredible. I can stream 24/192 from Qubuz with this setup. Not sure what is ment by "you get what you pay for".... 
Where are the cheap home streamers?
Hey Dan, here is the gist of it.https://www.sony.com/electronics/hi-res-audio-mp3-cd-sound-quality-comparison 
Where are the cheap home streamers?
Bits are bits, and the cheapest way I found to get them to my DAC is via USB from a RPI4 loaded with a Moode image. I use mconnect app on an iPad connected to Qobuz as my UI. I can stream 24 bit 192 kHz. The sound quality is as good as any streame... 
External DAC?
I believe page 62 in the manual talks about this. 
Cable comparison charts?
Why do people think they can measure everything,.....We don't even know what gravity is made,........I don't know why people think they can measure everything, but I am glad some do.   As to gravity,  we know exactly what it is.  It is the curvatu...
