Can't get ipad to control Tidal on Mini
@jond LOL. When I responded I thought he meant Mac Mini. Lesson learned.I think your question should have been the first question.T. 
Can't get ipad to control Tidal on Mini
Um, no, I haven't heard of that feature. Tidal on the iPad plays on the iPad. Tidal on the Mini plays on the Mini.You can use a remote virtual desktop software like Real VNC to remotely view and operate the Mini from the iPad. You'll need the app ... 
There goes Tidal?
@2psyop That link took me nowhere. Apple buying Tidal?  Hmmm. Maybe the price tag makes it a bargain for Apple and a rescue for Jay Z and other investors.Apple Music now has over 15 million subscribers. Tidal has what? 3 million? How much overlap ... 
Why am I just now discovering Gregory Porter?
Hello @tooblue When I hear about an artist that I'm not familiar with, I check with a couple of music websites. One of my favorites is AllMusic.com. Here is the Gregory Porter discography from there:http://www.allmusic.com/artist/gregory-porter-mn... 
Why am I just now discovering Gregory Porter?
Happy you found him. When I first heard him I thought it was Brook Benton. Great songs, great voice and wonderful arrangements. There’s nothing quite like the feeling when one "discovers" an artist.And Melody Gardot? Don't get me started... There'... 
Rotel RSX-1058 Won't Respond to Remote Commands
I had a similar problem with a remote a few years ago. The bluetooth xmitter on my phone interfered with it.Another time, a new light bulb in the same room interfered with the signal. The up-volume command would issue but not stop when my finger r... 
"Stairway To Heaven" Plagarism court case
If it doesn't fit, you must acquit. Still, reading about Led Zep in the headlines for other than trashing hotel rooms and violating our daughters is awesome and welcome. I read every news update I could on this. Trial should have been longer, with... 
I've got the Feeva.. and the prescription ain't more cowbell!
Or it could be the Zika. Just saying...Grooving to LCD Soundsystem (Get Innocuous from Sound of Silver) and it made me forget everything I want to change about my system.  
Tidal music to analog preamp
@erik_squires Sweet solution right there.  
Who has tried "TIDAL" vs other streaming applications?
@devilboy If I understand your question correctly, you will control Tidal's volume using the volume controls of the iPad. However, it you're using bluetooth to transmit Tidal music to a bluetooth device, it depends on whether the device allows vol... 
Tidal music to analog preamp
The cheapest fastest way to get the sound from the MacBook Air (MBA) to the preamp is to get a stereo plug mini to RCA cable of a length that will allow you to put the MBA at a location where you can use it but still reach the preamp. (Assuming yo... 
"5 Records You Should Own" article
Hey thanks for sharing this. Always open to someone else's opinion on music.Very nice website. I bet the store is terrific.  Wish I lived nearby.  
"Stairway To Heaven" Plagarism court case
I was hoping someone would bring this up. Very interesting case, mainly due to the precedents in the Robin Thicke/Marvin Gaye case.The Stairway guitar intro sure sounds similar to parts of the Spirit song. And, apparently there's a connection betw... 
Redbook Keeps Surprising
@davt I agree. A good Redbook cd can sound like it couldnt be improved upon. I find myself buying new or used from Amazon and saving $$. For my old ears, it takes a special artist and recording to get me to go for the hi-res version.
