  1. Oh, I've experienced that several times with caps and tubes in the same circuit, though not as many as the burn-in improving things.
  2. The OSX App still has way too many drop outs and long pauses between tracks. On Chrome it's doing much better, but still has some problems. I think it works better when you're sleeping in the US during our morning. I guess they're aware of the problems and are working to fix them. We'll see
  3. Yup, I've been trying both, depending on performance I've switched to the other just to see if there was a better delivery. Today it seems to be working better. I've experienced no glitches on play back within the tracks, though the times between tracks are still on the long side of things, and in two occasions the next track wouldn't start playing. Looks like they know there's a problem and are trying to solve it. If things keep working like this I could renew the subscription when the trial expires.
  4. Thanks guys. It's been for your positive comments that I decided to try it and eventually subscribing, as soon as they started streaming in Spain. When it doesn't skip sound quality is clearly better than the lossy stream of Spotify or the own's Tidal "high". Hopefully they fix it, otherwise they're going to lose a lot of business. At 20 euros/month I want the lossless stream, to get lossy I stay with Spotify at 10/month.
  5. I know, but that's not the way I intend to use Tidal, I want it to work in my Mac to feed the office system. The Mac is connected to a W4S or Mytek DSD and this one feeds the YBA and the speakers, so not really interested on lossless playback on the phone, I use the iTouch for music on the go.
  6. I've tried both, Chrome and the Tidal App for OSX. I haven't installed it on the iPhone or iPad, I'm not planning on streaming lossless with my lean 2GB monthly 4G quota.
  7. Not really, I can watch Berliner Philharmoniker concerts in HD without a single glitch.
  8. I've been using Tidal for a few days, I got a 30 days trial, an offer they started to promote their business opening in Spain. When it sounds it sounds very good, but it skips a lot, and sometimes it won't play. So the app tells you to stop using HiFi and switch to high quality instead, since they're having problems, which sounds more or less like Spotify. Are you having this skipping problem in the US too? I wonder if they're getting more users than they expected.
  9. listening to this trough Tidal, which is experiencing troubles to use the lossless stream, so had to switch to "high" instead of HiFi. If it doesn't improve I'm not going to pay the subscription Awesome album, by the way
  10. Happy birthday, Nate!!!
  11. Happy birthday, Craig!!!!
  12. RIP Mr Nimoy.
  13. Happy Birthday, Naaman!!!! I hope you have a great one. The day, I mean, not doc's fingers or prostate.
  14. If they were made in the last 2-3 years, they should, but I'm just repeating what a manufacturer told me.
  15. Fernando suffered an accident at Montmelo circuit on Sunday and has been at the ICU of the General Hospital in Catalonia for 3 days. He seems to be fine, but docs won't let him go. McLaren says it was due to de wind. Fernando remembers nothing. It's all too confusing.
  16. Sorry for your bad luck, Ken. JJ had quality problems for some time by the late 2000's, but now they're doing very good and reliable tubes afaik. Better than most Russian and Chinese.
  17. It's a great work, and you know it
  18. Nils Landgren & Esbjorn Svensson - 2001 - Layers of Light In case someone wants a free listen it's available at Spotify
  19. Happy birthday, Dan!!!
  20. Sorry for the troubles with the Speedy, it's a nice watch. FWIW I also had understood that the speck had moved away on its own, but given I'm not very smart and that English isn't my mother language, it's almost a miracle I understand half of what you write.
  21. Happy birthday, Al!!
  22. I'm on OSX using Chrome and several blocking extensions, yet the boxes showed on the first visit. I guess those blocking codes work differently
  23. Happy birthday, Colin!!! Just in case once wasn't enough
  24. Happy birthday, Colin!!!
  25. I guess that guy can match the tubes as anyone else if he has the tester. The Tube Depot has the matching service, you just need to check the box above the add to cart button, but you're right there's no third party reference about their matching quality. I've got tubes from them previously and work great, but I don't have the equipment to check them
