Business people will always tell you it's their character that makes them, don't worry. This is an mqa thread.

I find Tidal's player sounds less bad than Amazon's, so it sounds better even with the same track only at 44.1. On top of that, it works in Audirvana, which, like their name suggests, makes them the best right now. Qobuz works in it too, though, and is coming here next month for less than mqa...

Ok, I may have missed the part where he says he used to be a loser because of that. I'm staying on topic, Al ears.

That's what what you quoted is saying. No change there. I only mention Jay-z because it's his company, and I suspect that we should not be surprised about getting more of that treatment, because, since he says he's a drug dealer, and that's what they're know for getting into.

Further, this is a hifi site, which means people are shopping for or already have their hifi gear. So, regardless of which point you decide you could try higher octane fuel, the thread is about paying for higher octane, and not getting it.

The owner of troll-audio is scientifically debunking that getting digital actually gets chicks. Sorry, should have waited until a guy tried to correct me with them here, too.

You could turn it off, so that that's exactly how it's supposed to sound. Some people would still complain there's noise. If it was a 96, they say it's upfolding a downfolded track, with the data, (which normally all just plain plays uncompressed, nice and straight forward), of the extra...

It won't matter what gear you are using, you will never have fun switching from your own files to the same files streamed to you, even in Audirvana. Spotify streams 320kbps mp3. Don't worry, the lower you go, you'll always be getting the perfect part.

Next, a streaming service will come out with software that sneaks in making every other source sound worse than it actually is. Hey, Windows already does that, they just haven't figured out why yet. They don't think they have to be audio people, they're being the make it all work people...

Oh, now we're talking about a fallback mode and MQA cd's I've never heard of here? Where was that? If you still think MQA works at all, why don't they just make an .mqa file format with a codec to convert all your tracks to? If your bottom line is that "16bit 44.1kHz becomes 13/14bit 44.1Khz...

If a 44.1khz track plays using MQA, there is no way you can prove you're getting an original copy of the file at that rate, either, then. If MQA worked, they could be streaming 44.1 at 22. And they said the 192's still came at 44.1 rate, so why couldn't they send 44.1 at 11? MQA means for you...

You must misunderstand. MQA does not play back an original stream. They have been faking it, all along. If mqa was really better compression, it would be a file format we all could use. There is no way to prove Tidal has ANY tracks on it higher than 44.1khz. Further, if a technology ever...

Any recommendation on the best site to start an MQA class-action thread?

Some other guy said he's sure snakeoil exists, but it's far from reality. You guys should try smoking some of this. I promise I wont do anything to it. Aw c'mon, give a guy a bandwidth break if you love him. I shouldn't have had to be saying any of this. Before the offers start coming in, I'd...

That means they have to have been sitting there thinking, damn, it's not going to work with people saying that stuff. Yeah, but who had the best 'damn, they won't go for it stuff'? Let the internet records show... First, I'd like to thank the guy with the video and the measurement device, after...
