    If the DP-S1 is a Japanese sourced model, Tidal was never available on it. (search this thread for discussion about it). That also goes for the Pioneer version.

    Ok, we can agree to disagree, but I still think they would be shooting themselves in the foot by only having the benefit of dual DAC's for Balanced operation. There is no indication on the Data sheet http://www.pioneer-audiovisual.eu/sites/default/files/datasheets/english/XDP-30R.pdf either...
