| Aurender N100H or Auralic Aries? dlcockrum, lalitk's Audiogon above post states he "streams Aurender Tidal MQA masters at 24/96" and my Ayre Codex DAC displays 24/48. My Tidal settings are correct (I think but will verify this later today) so I emailed Aurender customer support... | |

| Any comments on DAC going direct to power amplifier or to pre-ampliifer? Okay. I changed my mind about having my DAC going direct to my power amp. The volume control in most DAC's (including my DAC) is indeed implemented in the digital domain and, therefore, when adjusted down, bits are lost AND so is the sound qualit... | |
