Tidal FLAC vs. Qobuz
@eagledriver_22  The Bluesound Vault has an ethernet port for connecting directly to the router.  But the only way to get the Tidal flac is through the Tida Connect App and not the BluOS app.  Theres no way to directly connect my android phone or... 
Tidal FLAC vs. Qobuz
@gkelly I admit I bought the Niagara without knowing the diff between the PC and a LPS.  Can you give me a simple explanation between the two?  
Tidal FLAC vs. Qobuz
Ive been emailing Tidal support and Bluesound support for clarification.  It seems like the BluOS app only streams Tidal as high as mqa and the only way to get flac from Tidal is through the Tidal CONNECT app and NOT the BluOS app.  So I can strea... 
Tidal FLAC vs. Qobuz
@gkelly I did demo the Rose 150, but I was in the middle of changing the entire system - amp, pre, speakers, t table etc, so maybe I didn't give the Rose a fair chance.  Since then I have done more research and it seems like much of the hype aroun... 
Tidal FLAC vs. Qobuz
@yage Honestly I'm not sure if its wifi or Bluetooth.  But its still wireless flac vs the mqa direct wired streaming when I use the ethernet to the Vault.  So I think wired mqa is still better than wireless flac.  But maybe we need an audio engine... 
Tidal FLAC vs. Qobuz
  @chocaholic Thanks for pointing out the original question.  I agree that it seems counter productive to use Bluetooth. I know that you can listen to Qobuz and Tidal through the BluOS app, but I think you can only stream mqa through the BleOS ap... 
Tidal FLAC vs. Qobuz
For example;  ELP - Qobuz has 9 HiRes and 21 cd options.  Tidal has 43 mqa, 23 flac, and 16 cd options  
Tidal FLAC vs. Qobuz
@lalitk  I  actually started looking for a new streamer but I really like the BluOS so now I'm looking for a DAC.  I test drove the Rose 150 streamer/dac but it didn't sound much different and I like the bluos better.  Many reviews on the Rose ta... 
Tidal FLAC vs. Qobuz
My hope was that Tidal would be the clear favorite now, since they started streaming flac as well, but my question is, is it comparable to Qobuz flac if you need to send Tidal flac wirelessly over Bluetooth from the Tidal app, instead of streaming... 
Tidal FLAC vs. Qobuz
Mclinnguy, Maybe it has something to do with genre.  I mostly listen to classic rock, and I ususally see many more mqa and flac options with Tidal, while Qobuz has more flac, but then a LOT of cd options in their catalog.  When offered a choice be... 
Aggrivated tinnitus from speakers?
I have a McIntosh 352 Hybrid integrated amp.  I bought some new speakers and wanted a new amp to push them and so I got the McIntosh MC462 and the C53 preamp.  There was some additional clarity but the high end really aggravated my ears, so I had ... 
Does Qobuz work
@buckycyo I use the BluOS and had to close my old account and resign in under the Music Service tab and then Manage.  I don't use the Qobuz app, but apparently Qobuz has 2 differnt web pages and only one of them lets you sign on and listen.  Its n... 
Does Qobuz work
@cycles2   I mentioned above that Qobuz did contact me, after several days of waiting.  They were able to resolve the login issue, even though it took over 90 minutes for them to figure out the issue, so it seems like Qobuz is not as intuitive as ... 
Does Qobuz work
Tidal has a much larger catalog.  Doesn't matter how much better Qobuz might sound if they don't have as many titles as Tidal.  Plus, several albums on Qobuz have just been cd quality  
Does Qobuz work
Update; Qubuz support finally got back to me after several days.  So far I've been on Chat for 90 minutes and we finally got it to work on my PC, even though the rep was using terms that were not actually on the website, so it took some time to fi...
