With the new Updated app it works good for me a little less control for the individual as the 1st but all around it’s good a little tighter simplified.1 thing I do miss is Updates where you had the choice to do it whenever you wanted to do that’s me .Not knowing when the newest update is done .even a notice someway when update was done would satisfy me πŸ˜πŸ‘

Sorry to be the bearer of bad news, but the Boost was ceased as a product several months ago and can no longer be purchased (I guess other than old stock that might be hanging about).

Hate to be the bearer of more bad (although it’s good really)Β news, but TidalΒ removed MQA and Sonos didn’t support MQA anyway as far as I know. The Amp can downmix 5.1 but the maximum speakers it will run is 4.1 if you add Sonos wireless surrounds.

A 5.1 audio stream may sound better if the Amp hasΒ 4.1 setup so it is only mixing the centre channel toΒ L+R, but in a 2.0 setup the pre-mastered stereo track can often be better than down-mixing a 5.1 track.
