Hi

Could someone confirm all the exact settings to achieve max resolution with the Arcam SA20? I am streaming Tidal Master, with a coax connection from the Node to the amp but only ever see max 96Khz.

  Hi Richard

  According to your third party DAC specifications, output on optical is maxed out at 96khz. I don't see any confirmation that this DAC is MQA certified which means it is likely not, MQA content, even through COAX, will be unfolded twice to a maximum output of 24/96.

  If you wish to hear a full MQA experience, I would suggest using the NODE's full MQA certified 24/192 onboard DAC and connecting it to one of the three analogue inputs of your amplifier.
