No, sorry, I haven't. A couple of people whose opinions I respect are
making very favourable comments about the new IQaudio amp.

I had to laugh earlier. I noticed that a high-res version of the new
Iron Maiden album was available on Qobuz. (Cue the jokes about how there
could possibly be any benefit to listening to Iron Maiden on anything
other than a low-fi system....) Which I was considering buying until
upon closer inspection, I noticed that their idea of high-res for this
title was only 24/48 and that they wanted £15.99 for it! (I think they
define anything 24 bit as high-res regardless of sample rate.) So I
think I'll stick to the 16/44k1, CD "standard" streaming version which
I'm already paying for with my subscription. I still haven't pulled the
trigger on paying the £220 in one go for a Sublime subscription....
Still toying with that idea, while continuing to pay the £20 a monthly
sub......
