Is it true that subscribing to Tidal’s more expensive stream is a waste of money because my Sonos Port at S2 cannot handle 24 bit or MQA streams?
 

thanks

Tidal HiFi delivers 16/44 FLAC to Sonos. It’s worth it if you want lossless.

MQA isn’t supported by Sonos and, in the opinion of many in the industry, is very much not worth it.

Is it true that Subscribing to Todal’s more expensive stream is a waste of money because my Sonos Port cannot handle 24 bit let alone MQA?
