• I recently bought a zorloo Stella usb-c MQA DAC to use with tidal on my pixal 4a. $149 aud later and MQA doesn't decode out from tidal. Do research, poo, android doesn't pass "bit perfect" stream out of the USB. Buy 3rd party app with MQA plug-in, $20 later and several digs into the settings... Yay, I have tried MQA playback. Can't really tell the difference! I have a set of westone IEM that I use as the are very clean sounding and not bass boosted or anything and maybe there's a bit more seperation of sounds and touch more sense of silence between notes. But marginal and not worth the faff or the money.

  • I suspected as much but couldn't not try... The zorloo USB dongle DAC is pretty handy though. Noticeable improvement in sound when plugged into the phone. Happy with that part.
