Roon & mqa give problems

[Eric_Besemer]

Good afternoon,
This album (to the bone- steve wildon and more from this artist causes interference in the sound.
Is it just me or do you also suffer from this?

Hi @Eric_Besemer

Welcome to the Roon Community.

I’m a fellow Roon user.

Could you fill in all the sections in the support template, without this Roon Support and other users may struggle to help you.

Also, a screenshot of the signal path might help.

Hi @Eric_Besemer

I appreciate this, however if you are able to advise on your audio/network equipment make, models. Roon core specs, screenshot of your signal path etc, it’ll help you significantly.

Both albums you share shows as MQA but when played are normal FLAC 16/44.1

Problem solved! 

I de-powered the whole house for 5 minutes.
Strange thing, but it helped.
Well electronics and 2023

This does play as MQA
