Neil Young calls out Tidal
Mr. Stuart didn’t roll out MQA out of charity or his love for the music :-)I never cared for MQA, they do sound ‘bright’ in upper frequencies. I dumped Tidal shortly after Qobuz entered US market.  
TIDAL on SALE!
@reubent Vault 2i is great if you want to rip your CD’s. I also own Vault 2 which is strictly used for ripping CD’s and backup to my Aurender N10. Spotify is great as far as user interface and content. Only quirk, low resolution streaming. I don’t... 
TIDAL on SALE!
@reubent Welcome to the world of unlimited music! There are plenty of threads here on devices to consider....for starters you can’t go wrong with Bluesound Node 2i.  
New to analog
@arafiq,Take the information with a grain of salt, especially when it comes from a Vinyl fanatics like millercarbon. He’s been ‘high’ on Vinyl for way too long and unfairly pooping on digital (streaming or CD) ever since he graced us with his pres...

They appear to be hurting for business. Over the holidays they ran $5 promo for five months. I dumped them a year ago....Qobuz is currently the best streaming service in US for a bargain price of $149.99 / 12 months.  
iPad Mini as control device for network player

Jerry Raskin’s ( AKA Needle Doctor ) passed away.
RIP Jerry.  
DAC module of a high-end integrated amplifier
“still hoping for someone with IQ above 80 to reply (who actually understood what i was asking)”If you had the IQ of 80 and above, you wouldn’t have come here to satisfy your curiosity for electronics you can’t afford to buy. It’s quite obvious th... 
looking for a Integrated amp $6,000 range
“I was looking at the Accupahse e480 but just cant justify the us mark up”Completely a valid concern, buy used if you can cause in the end it’s the Accuphase superlative sound and built that will keep you smiling for years. I own the E-650, truly ... 
FUSES, Finally!?
“I have had several audiophile friends tell me about their new fancy fuses and I have shown them, in their own system, that when they didn’t know what fuse was installed, they couldn’t tell the fancy fuse from a basic fuse.”Thanks for humoring us ... 
iPad Mini as control device for network player
@hickamoreIf you have not bought the mini yet, I would wait until March. Apple is going to launch new version of iPad mini. The new mini 6 is expected to have 8.4” screen without any increase to the physical dimensions of current iPad mini 5.https... 
Ethernet source
“I could poke thru the wall and install an outlet fairly easily.”@russellrcncom That would be the most effective way to get ‘wired’ and noise free signal to your ultrarendu. I would steer clear of ‘audiophile’ network switch or hubs. The multiple ... 
iPad Mini as control device for network player
I use iPad mini with my Aurender N10. No compromises vs regular iPad except smaller screen size. 
MSB select II vs all dacs ?
@jc51373 My experience with Bob - worldwidewholesales is very similar to yours. He reminds of used car salesman back in 90’s, just like them he would make up lies or say anything in order to close a deal to his advantage. 
Kimber Kable - Naked Cables
Go for them :-)
