Upsamplers, DACs, jitter, shakes and analogue withdrawals, this is it.

RE: Best way to set up Tidal & Dragonfly Black on a Mac?

You generally want the settings in Audio Midi Setup to match the resolution / sample rate of the music you are playing. In the case of Tidal I will assume that to be 16/44.1 2ch.

Since Audio Midi Setup does not automatically set the sample to the music that is being played, there are many software players available on Mac that will (in addition to offering many other features). I'm not sure how they interact with Tidal/MQA.

Unless the various music being played from Tidal is at various sample rates for different tunes, just set Audio Midi Setup as described above.

Sorry, but I can't help you with Tidal & MQA. Not sure how to best accommodate it as I'm not a Tidal subscriber.
