Tidal MQA and Phantoms - davidadamson - 07-Jan-2017

Tidal just released a Master series of MQA coded albums.
Does anyone know if these same MQA albums are streamed to the phantoms via Tidal/Spark?

The only way to get Tidal/MQA right now are through the Mac and Windows desktop apps. Eventually Masters will make its way to the Tidal mobile apps. The good thing is Tidal Masters works through either hardware or software, so if the kind developers at Devialet get on it, the Phantoms can get Tidal Masters through a software implementation.

Roon can also playback Tidal MQA streams. I'm listening now Roon->microRendu->Mytek Brooklyn. The Warner collection is wonderful! I'd give my left arm to listen to the same tracks on my Expert and Phantom systems.

So, I am going to bring my Imac to the room the phantom golds are in and do an evaluation. Can't resist.

FYI, here is a cheap way to connect the Imac using optical:

I never knew until today that the headphone jack on the Mac is analogue and optical.
