I'm keen to hear more on this as I'm still on the U.S. version too. Will eventually move over to the AU version then copy all my Tidal library over.

With my relatively budget gear I also like the sound better across the board. Been on the U.S. catalog for a week and am hoping the placebo effect has worn off!

For those having issues with Roon, a google search found this: https://community.roonlabs.com/t/qobuz-on-roon-only-playing-at-cd-quality-or-lower/103356. I'm currently using Qobuz U.S. and was contemplating downgrading to a Tidal premium family plan while keeping Qobuz Studio for myself. Hmm. So many hifi decisions

I don't know if it's placebo but I think the sound quality is better. I'd love to hear from the techs at Tidal and Qobuz about how they convert, store and transmit those files.

Let us know how it goes! I wasn't brave enough to meddle with the tweaks ?

Hey @Arthur K I have the same unit and love it but have the same gripe. This video has a tweak for the display that may help: .

This old post deserves a bump!

I've heard some people say that; but to me they are neutral and well-balanced from low to high frequencies.

My favourite road trip album ever. Traveling The Otways in Vic with this playing is just.. wow.

I don't think one can be too picky at this price range - so I realise I'm probably asking too much in terms of performance. The Sabaj DA3 I have is amazing for the $150 I spent on it; and now just want to try something else that punches above its weight in this class of DAC/amps I wonder how the Q1 sounds to me now... might take it out for a spin!

I'll check out the Schiit stuff again; last time I checked, it was above my price point (to get all in one DAC and amp; and the Fulla's reviews aren't flash). Will check out the JDS and Mayflow. Thank you! I had the Fiio Q1 MkII which was really underwhelming... will check out the E10K and see if I can commit to Fiio again

Hi folks, I hope this hasn't been discussed elsewhere; if it has I'll be happy to move this discussion to another thread. I'm currently looking for an affordable all-in-one headphone DAC/amp around $200. While I'm at it, it'd be great if this thread collects your recommendations in case others are seeking similar devices in future. I currently own the Sabaj DA3 that works really well with my Oppo PM3; I'd like to try something different to it. I've read mixed reviews about the Ifi Zen DAC and there are a bunch of Chinese brands that operate in this price ran

For this week, I'm loving everything from Martin Nonstatic. Downtempo electronica. Divine over headphones. Get stuck in https://ultimae.bandcamp.com/album/treeline-24bit
