ROON?
I also have both Qobuz and Tidal and for me Roon takes the music you “liked” from each and curates the two services in to one interface. What I love about it is that’s it’s like every album cover that I use to hold and read when I was a kid while ... 
Dynaudio Heritage + Gold Note IS-1000 Deluxe
From the specs, the Gold Note should work well. I ran a Pass Labs INT25 w my HS’s and it sounded great. Then I moved up to a PL X250.8 and it really opened things up. The speakers like good power. A Pass INT 60 that’s been certified may be a fanta...

I heard the amp and I would look at Sonus Faber Olympica Nova III or V's   
Different R2R DACs
Great point.  What are you using as a streamer?  Don’t know if I will hear a marketable improvement if my weakest link shutters any improvement.

Pass INT-25 better than Wilsenton R8?
I have both the R8 and a new  INT25 hooked up in the same space and getting a better soundstage than R8 but will keep going back n forth and spend time listening to the changes over the first 0-300 hours. Connected to a pair of Dynaudio HS’s and h...

MQA Stream into non MQA DAC
Just to be clear can I play myTidal MQA files on a DAC w no MQA processor? Will they be enjoyable?  Interested in an RME ADI or A Chord Qutest DAC pulling stream from a New Node.
