Are you taking any cables for treatment?

With only your "supplies" to sustain you ...

Quoted from elsewhere " Apparently Tidal are streaming a handful of tracks with MQA coding, it seems largely ancient 1970s pop songs which could be adequately coded with 13 bits at 32kHz sampling.The HitchHikers Guide to Meridian is humming with rapturous reviews. It's worth looking at for a laugh.http://www.meridianunplugged.com/ubbthre...740&page=6I especially like this bit:"MQA is completely different. Leaving aside the technological machinations, those old albums now have a life and an energy that instantly dragged me back to the first moment the stylus hit the vinyl and some new band exploded into my teenaged bedroom. So I've been working my way through the (limited) back catalogue on Tidal and the effect is the same, no matter how much of a muddy mess the original album was"So MQA has magic powers - it can bring back your youth.

Drove back home to round out our week long So/Cal road trip. Left an overcast Santa Barbara in the morning but managed to catch some sun and lunch in SLO. Now glad to be home and putting my feet up. Add another 1000 to get the total. Happy New Year, Head-Case!
