TIDAL MQA iOS Apple set-up (Renderer) – (xDSD)
Channel: iFi audio
Date: 2019-03-20

This tutorial highlights how to set-up TIDAL to enable MQA playback on iOS mobile devices.

You'll need a TIDAL premium account to experience MASTER (MQA) quality. For the full MASTER experience, we recommend using an MQA DAC. TIDAL's software, just like the desktop version, unfolds the first stage, whilst allowing the MQA ready DAC to perform the 2nd and 3rd part of the MQA unfolding process.

We have used our xDSD for demonstration purposes - this video is purely to show how to correctly setup TIDAL for the 1st stage of the 'unfolding' MQA process. The iFi DAC will correctly unfold the 2nd and 3rd stage. 

This video is not specifically for the xDSD - it applies to all our current portable DACs.

Note:

Have an iFi DAC without MQA? No problem, just check here: https://ifi-audio.com/mqa-firmware/

It's FREE!

Please refer to our MQA upgrade guide or user manual for MQA colour as the MQA led on our original units dating back to 2013 will vary slightly.
