STREAMING - QOBUZ VS TIDAL AND ROON'S PREFERENCES
Thanks Sonic.  One quick question.  What is the highest resolution Qobuzz offers.  I know when I hooked up my BlueSound to my amp by way I gave up the potential of hearing up to 24/192.  If Qobuzz doesn’t limit their customers then I will give Qob... 
STREAMING - QOBUZ VS TIDAL AND ROON'S PREFERENCES
I was not aware QObuz had a larger library than Tidal.  I have a BluSound Node 2i and like the layout of Tidal.  I believe Qobuzz does not have MQA.  I wonder what the resolution is for Qobuzz?    
Why do hipsters prefer analog?
I thought this was a discussion forum designed for people to learn.  I can see why some have dropped out.    
Introducing Myself
I have always wondered how do you identify members who are manufacturers or dealers.  Maybe I missed something.

Why do hipsters prefer analog?
I have not listened to a tube amp.  I would think the highs and the details would not be as pronounced as a good digital amp.  There must be a reason why audio switched from tube to digital.  Is it the nostalgia and the looks of glowing tubes.  Is... 
cheapest cable upgrade ever
Could you provide a photo?  I have no idea of what you are talking about.  
Quick USB question
I have a Node 2i and I wonder if you can really hear a distinct difference in higher cost streamers.  When I first purchased my BlueSound, they sold me a ProJect DAC.  I found the DAC made it sound thinner. So I disconnected the ProJect and the so... 
Amp's that are better sounding than a nad 3020
Wait until you can afford a decent amplifier.  Never heard an amp could cost only $300.    
What cable companies make the best cables and sell them directly?
I upgrade my speaker wires, power cords for both my ARCAM and my Bluesound and also upgraded my digital cables.  I was fortunate to use The Cable Company.  I worked with Jason Ressler and he is by far the most knowledge people I have worked for.  ... 
WTH TAS?!
I would think your ears are most important to rely on.  
FInally I have a noise issue
Maybe it is the source?  
Should Audiogon forum dealers be held to a different standard?
It sounds like you have a way to identify dealers.  If so can you tell me how to identify them.  I have always felt dealers should be identified because this certainly could explain their bias.  The should identify themselves with the name of deal... 
33rpm vs 45rpm - which is better
I wonder what sounds better.   Vinyl or Cd's?  I have always thought the reason CD's came out was to eliminate the noise from vinyl.  Also, what sounds better, a CD or Streaming?  You can stream 24/192 and a CD is 16 bit.  You would think hi-res w... 
The vanishing stereo rack
I have all my components hidden away in an entrainment cabinet.  We have a beautiful living room and we don’t want to goober it up.  The systems I have seen are ugly.  My wife would kick me out our house. Since adding a BlueSound Node 2i I no lon...
