Eric Bibb “Global Griot” removed from Tidal due to streaming
I am happy to report this excellent album has returned to Tidal.  Some form of agreement or monetary exchange with the record label would be my guess for the return.

Change the preamp.  JPL is like chocolate syrup. 
Streaming Question....
Wireless works great.  The Bluetooth apt x hd is superior to regular Bluetooth.I have streamed some audio from you tube and was pleasantly surprisedity by the sound quality. I think you would be pleased with the Node 2i. 
Eric Bibb “Global Griot” removed from Tidal due to streaming
The entire album was removed because the record label for this album does not permit streaming.  So, I suspect Tidal received a cease and desist order to remove it.Even worse, the only source I found for this album was a 24/96 flac file at Acousti... 
Streaming Question....
Bluesound Node 2i lets you stream wirelessly from the internet.  The BluOS app has Tune In with many hundreds of stations and Radio Paradise.  Add Tidal and you’re set.  You can also stream Bluetooth to the Node via apt x hd from your iPad.  All t... 
B&W Concept 90 CM2 bass module needs new crossover or replacement - thoughts?
Have you contacted B&W?  I have a pair of the same speakers.  Fortunately mine are working fine.  These speakers are hi tech even by today’s standards.  IMO definitely worth repairing.

It is not accessible through the BluOS app.  You need to go to the actual Tidal app.  Yes it does carry over.  The Tidal app is your subscription to their service.  Whether you access that subscription through BluOS or another app from a different...

Uberwaltz, click the heart shaped “my collection “ bottom right in the Tidal app, then click the “gear wheel” icon top right.  You will then open the page to see the slide button to disable normalization loudness compensation.For my listening, I l... 
Since my sabbatical
Bluesound Node 2i new is 499.00.  You can likely find the previous model for 300.00 or so.  You need a tablet or phone to run the BluOS app for control.Tidal Hi Fi is 19.99 per month.  Less than the price of just one new cd. 
Advice Needed: Bluesound Node vs Vault
Here’s my thoughts to try: 1st disconnect all cables other than power and attempt reboot.  2nd see if you can download the update again.  I have the update installed and no problems.Hopefully you’ll get lucky. 
Since my sabbatical
The most amazing thing to experience is a streamer plus a Tidal Hi Fi subscription.  Having an almost unlimited music library is mind boggling.  Imagine being able to listen to virtually any artist or piece of music that you want to.  Then decide ...
