Thanks for feedback so far, guys!
Erik- I have Vandy 2ceSig 2s and have tried to discern a difference between battery and AC from the wall with my Mac. I have a dedicated power line and Porter Port outlets and can’t tell a difference. Thanks for info on the Stockholm too!
MZ- I’ve wondered about that. There seems to be a lot of hype about hi-Rez, but I’ve not compared it with regular CD quality personally. I do believe Tidal is just as good as CD downloads I’ve done in iTunes. I’ve A/B’d tracks head to head and could tell no difference. I can seem to discern better quality on MQA albums on Tidal versus the same non-master album on Tidal, however. And I have some room treatments for first reflecting points on side walls and behind the speakers.
I know now some people run JRiver, Roon, etc... is there an advantage sonically?
Since I stream Tidal via WiFi it seems to really slow things down for me. Do I need to upgrade my internet speed?
Any other tips are most welcome.
Thanks again.
