can UAPP stream in MQA format via Tidal on the Pioneer ?

No, the MQA decoder on the PIoneer is embedded in their own app and cannot be used by other apps.

Are people using UAPP with balanced headphones? Because I find it to be pretty bad with my HD audio files. 70's rock music has vocal tracks that sound muted and the sound stage is totally unfocused. To my ears, balanced headphones sound way better with the default player than UAPP.

Have been using balanced in ears with uapp, sounds great on my end, better than the built-in app But I listen to a lot of acoustic jazz ..

Am I right in assuming that the sound adjustments only affect the built-in player? What settings are you using for these:

• DSP function
• Lock Range Adjust
• Digital filter
  
• Upsampling Mode
• Club Sound Boost

Are you making any sound/quality adjustments to UAPP? What is the sampling rate of the files you are playing?

I actually found on HD files that certain settings could cause pops and skips while using balanced headphones. I guess the manual actually warns about this possibility...

 

[doctorjazz]

Guess I'm lucky, I listen to WAV (lots of great ECM recordings I've got in WAV), uncompressed FLAC (often ripped from my cd's), and various hi rez formats. Don't upsample, don't use DSP, haven't played with the filters, just a plug and play guy (too busy/lazy to spend a lot of time in settings unless I'm forced to).

I use balanced headphones and Uapp.

Lock Range Normal
Digital Filter Sharp
Club Sound Off
Upsample Off

Bit Perfect when possible

My 300R stuck in the boot loop after using kingroot, recovery can be entered, what should I do now

Does this have the same headphone jack issues that the Onkyo DP-X1 has had?

Also what are the other major differences? Thanks.

I haven't had any problems with the headphone jack. I try to be gentle with it, out of an abundance of caution. So far, so good.

Just to be clear, those settings only affect the included Pioneer player, right? And doesn't UAPP Bit Perfect just override all the other settings?

All modes of the default player and alternative players such as foobar2000 do not directly output the audio stream 44.1. The audio stream is always re-sampled to a different sampling frequency, a multiple of 48/96/192/384 kHz.

wow! what a detailed series of reports. makes your head spin.

i did figure out enough of it to see that my sennheiser 6xx's are good for using with the player in environments where noise bleed doesn't matter.

but then again, there's like 200 other headphones on that list which means their results were pretty scatter-gun. or thorough i guess, being charitable.

I didn't expect such a high output impedance especially in balanced mode. Can th is be a problem with 16 ohm iem 's?
