Hi all,
I have Phantom 1 108db in stereo. I stream Tidal music via airplay 2.
In my experience the hifi quality music numbers sounds better than the master quality music. (Master should be the higher quality)
Is anyone else experiencing the same? Or any thoughts about this?
Thanks!
Harmen

Wow, i'm startled. Thanks for your replies. At first I thought maybe it was me that I could'nt hear the details of the MQA but now it makes sense.
I'm definitely going to reconsider my subscription.

Also my respect Harmen to be ableto notice the difference between Hifi and Master!
If you want to listen to higher than 16/44.1 music , than have a look at the Wiim Mini Streaming player.
For less then 100 bucks you get 24/192 via Amazon Music HD or Qobuz. Additionally Alexa functionality with your Phantoms.
From what I know the Phantoms communicate in 24/48 in Stereo mode and probably everything higher than 24/48 gets downsampled as well in single mode.
But with your MQA proven ears you should notice the difference from 16bit to 24bit. The wiim mini will distribute it bit perfect to your speakers.

So, just to clarify, by using this, I will be able to directly stream Tidal, including MQA, directly to my Phantoms?
Will it use the highest quality available (24/96) direct to the Phantoms instead of having to go through my phone?
TIA
