Then, they should stop MQA'ing rock and pop music, since the MQA encoder is not configured to deal with that content.

I just saw this on reddit. It appears TIDAL has had enough.

 

 

 

Apparently, this guy gets his MQA via an iPhone 5 with an AudioQuest DragonFly Cobalt.  A discerning audio setup for sure. /s

 

In any case, you can tell him what you think , here:  https://www.facebook.com/groups/253761938407310

No matter how a person "doesn't believe" or distrust scientific facts (or pray, for that matter), if that person jumps from a building, that person will fall to the ground... because, you know... gravity...

 

I don't think this conveys what you think it does. "Gravity" is both an observable phenomena and a scientific theory and the two are distinct (i.e. the latter explains the former).  In your sentence above, it is a phenomena experienced by humankind from the beginning of their existence, obviously long, long, long before science was even an idea.

Did you see yesterdays debacle where he said Sennheiser HD600 and HD650 sounded the same?  Possibly the most measured and subjectively reviewed cans on the planet and he is the only person ever who thinks they measure and sound the same.  When taken to task he just went into attack mode and banned people who disagreed, even after they pointed out loads of evidence to contradict him.  Followed by thread closure.

 

Very sad.  I liked the work Amir was doing and this kind of thing just takes away from it.  😞
