    ifi iDSD nano BL - firmware/MQA issues

    Thanks for the good advice. I have not tried using the DAC with my iphone yet, I normally just use PC. I will keep that in mind if I do. I am from Calgary myself, you stay safe as well during this unprecedented time in our lives, same to all of the people on this forum and your families. God bless.

    ifi iDSD nano BL - firmware/MQA issues

    Thanks for the reply. Interestingly enough I literally just watched a video from Zreviews on you tube late last night. . Needless to say he was pretty blown away at the price point. If you were to order the unit from Amazon Prime, if it did not work out for you, then you can always return it...

    ifi iDSD nano BL - firmware/MQA issues

    I wish I could give more feedback on your issues, but I am running windows. I am using Tidal with the 5.3c update for my nano black and it works great. Based on what you have said, it seems more of an issue with Tidal on MacOS than with the nano itself. I have not researched the Zen much, it is...

    ifi iDSD nano BL - firmware/MQA issues

    I hope Ifi steps up to the plate here. Because although the unit has been good for me, I would feel the same way if I was in your place.

    Ditto on the streaming convert. All I use is Tidal, either at work from the PC, or using my phone connected to the car via car play... love it.

    ifi iDSD nano BL - firmware/MQA issues

    Hey Womaz My personal experience with the unit has been great. I used to have a fiio kunlun, and upgraded to this unit. Nice upgrade, I don't regret it one bit. I can't speak to the portability as I just use the Tidal app on my Windows PC, but in this configuration it works great. I do agree...

    ifi iDSD nano BL - firmware/MQA issues

    I am using a Windows machine so I can't comment on MAC. I also had to upgrade the firmware, and change the settings on Tidal. Just make sure that the settings on more settings are as follows. You don't want to pass through the MQA. Any of the MQA tracks work flawlessly, and I don't have hiccups...

    ifi iDSD nano BL - firmware/MQA issues

    Wow, I was just looking up this question. Thanks for the response. I just updated the firmware on the ifi nano bl. Seriously, this thing is awesome. I used to have a Fiio Kunlun, this was a nice upgrade to say the least.

    REVIEW: Ray Samuels Audio “Apache” balanced headphone amp/preamp

    I joined this forum not that long ago, and I am really really enjoying it thus far. One of the nicest parts are the reviews. Skylab, I sure hope that you do not grow tired of reviewing equipment because myself, and I know many others find them to be very informative. I am very interested to see...

    [pics]REVIEW: Audio-Technica ATH-AD2000 vs. Denon AH-D5000[/pics]

    I know we are discussing the ATH-2000 and the AH-D5000, but has anyone also compared the ATH-W5000? I am wondering since the W5000 seems more like the D5000 in design. I have read Skylab's report on the D5000, and it got me really interested in these cans. I would however like to get some more...
