| Synergistic Red Fuse ... I have eight Black fuses in my system. I had one that was rated at the stock size blow upon power up. I got a free replacement, but went up to the next higher rating and have had absolutely no problems. Since then I have modestly up-rated the Blac... | |
| Quick How to Stream MQA via Tidal to Bluesound I agree with mcroth. I don't think the Oppo can access the higher res Tidal MQA info. MQA argue that their un-decoded files in the standard FLAC wrapper will sound better than Redbook 16/44, but I have not been able to discern that by listening. | |
| Quick How to Stream MQA via Tidal to Bluesound Kalali said: "You may want to try bypassing the Bel Canto and see/hear if those same contents sound better."The fully decoded analog output of the Bluesound Node 2 is quite pleasant and a screaming deal for a $500 streamer-DAC, but it is not up t... | |
| Quick How to Stream MQA via Tidal to Bluesound I'm using a Bluesound Node 2 into a Bel Canto DAC 3.7 via SPDIF and I'm getting either 88.2 or 96 kHz on most Tidal MQA material. | |
| Synergistic Red Fuse ... I have Herbie's products throughout my system. Outstanding and very reasonably priced for the performance improvement they deliver. Customer service is amazing too! | |
| Synergistic Red Fuse ... Wow. We did what couldn't otherwise be done.Killed the thread.... | |
| Synergistic Red Fuse ... +1 on Hampton Hawes! | |
| Synergistic Red Fuse ... Bumpfest!!!Right now I'm digging Rosanne Cash's 10 Song Demo with full SR regalia sans any SR cables (only one powering my REL). Read 'em and weep--Black fuses, outlets, Atmosphere, FEQ, dozens of HFTs and a Tranquility Base for my BDP-2 and its U... | |
| Synergistic Red Fuse ... I recently acquired another ten-pack of HFTs via AG and used most of them on my very modest speakers and a few more on USB cable ends, pushing me to a stage five install or beyond (sounds a bit like Scientology, don't it?).I am so enjoying Patrici... | |

| Who has tried "TIDAL" vs other streaming applications? For the last few days I've been streaming Tidal HiFi through my Bryston BDP-2 (using the Bryston beta software) and compared to the same songs ripped to AIFF and played off a SSD, Tidal sounds a bit more two dimensional, but otherwise very compara... | |
| Synergistic Red Fuse ... Also, too, way off topic, but Tidal sounds very good though my setup--if a bit more two dimensional than playing CDs ripped to AIFF via iTunes. Tidal uses FLAC. Background is totally silent. Reminds me of hearing familiar music rendered at the mov... | |
| Synergistic Red Fuse ... geoffkaitI see what you did there!!! | |
| Synergistic Red Fuse ... David:"The enhanced spacial information, the blacker background, and overall more relaxed sound makes streaming a much more satisfying experience than before I installed the Black fuses and Black outlets. "A great concise summary of the SR Black p... | |
| Synergistic Red Fuse ... Way off topic (though the goodness of the SR Black fuses and outlets shine on through everything in the chain), but this afternoon I got Tidal working through my Bryston BDP-2 music player and it sounds extraordinarily good using multimode duplex ... |
