Nice MQA discussion


Im really starting to not like MQA. I rarely listen to TIDAL in favor of Qobuz

@jond,

May I know what app you’re using to browse albums on Tidal? My Aurender app clearly identify albums with MQA logo. 

And about loud static, I wonder why is that? I do not own MQA compatible DAC either but able to play most MQA albums in 24bit/48khz resolution. 
I use the Auralic Lightning DS app great app other than that but I don't see that designation on the Tidal app either. It does identify MQA and the sampling rate after I hit play just not before. The static I've been told is the DAC going back and and forth between sampling rates, it's older and just does 48 and 44.1, and unable to lock. It doesn't happen with every MQA title just most.

You may wanna check time delay settings in your app to allow DAC to adjust to new sampling rate. 

My app app show time delay settings of 1, 2, 3, 4, 5 and 10 sec. 

Hope this helps with the annoying static.
