In Reply to: RE: I moved to Tidal today from Spotify posted by PaulN on December 18, 2014 at 19:09:40
I started looking at the Tidal website then got distracted.
What is their monthly subscription fee? You said $10 "extra" so it that more like $20/mo? Is there an option to pay for a full year?
I'm listening to Spotify almost daily in the background as I work. I like it a lot but wouldn't mind giving Tidal a try.
What is the Pure Music hijack? Is that something I need to download, or part of Pure Music? I'm using Audirvana Plus at the moment. Thanks!

It's a built in feature. Like Audio Hijack, it can take over a stream as a source and you can control it with the PM interface. I can't tell you more, because I am not yet operational here. I still need to route a firewire and a USB cable through a wall to the i/o interface and DAC for use with PureVinyl and my table. I read about the feature in the manual.A nice feature in PV is the ability to also switch different sources on the interface, so I can have a tape deck or a tuner running into the interface and can set each for gain, RIAA, etc. per source. This means my system will be all-digital and every source will be able to enjoy acourate room correction filters, including the analog ones by way of the Audio Units plugin. I just need an analog switch box to toggle between my tuner and my Nakamichi on inputs 3/4 on the impact twin. Nifty. I look forward to evaluating how vinyl sounds this way vs. through my former Classe Dr-6R with TKD stepped attenuator. I suspect that the advantage of the NAD's high-bit depth digital volume control, DSP RIAA and RC will trounce the old hot rod. Now I just need a new table and cartridge.

I do the same. If you go to Tidals webpage, click on Menu, there is a Try Now for free for 7 days. I have no association with them. Not real wild on going from Free all the time to $240 for the year.

Or a special bargain subscription rate of $375 per annum if you live in the UK. Woopee. I'm signing up right now. NOT.
