Speaking of getting back on topic , are you still running smooth with your streaming so far ?

Qobuz HiRez streaming has finally hit the U.S. and it’s really really good
- Thread starter Audiofreak71
- Start date

Yup, and I've already said that both CD quality streams to me sound identical. At least I'm one of the few on this thread commenting that has access to both services simultaneously.
What is not appropriate is for me to tolerate a comment like the one below when nothing could be further from the truth:
Here we go again, MQA victims crying about their petty injustices on a Qobuz thread. You could start your own thread if so inclined!

Yeah I hear you , but we’re all grown ups here and the problem in allot of cases is we’re not standing in front of each other talking therefore sometimes typing gets perceived differently. It’s all good though and I’m glad you can bring to the table both sides of the house , a Tidal and Qobuz perspective, that gives people that are interested insight for potential subscribing to one both or all .Yup, and I've already said that both CD quality streams to me sound identical.

I've mostly been using qobuz for auditioning rather than just streaming but it is working fine here on 24/96 and have found several new albums to DL including this one from last night that I like quite a bit already.

Casandra Wilson is is an incredible artist imo and very good quality recodings , I have here stuff on vinyl, cd, and streaming . I’ve compared her albums on both Qobuz, Tidal , vinyl and cds and in some cases the cd trumped her hi-res stuff on Qobuz and the vinyl trumped the 16/44 on tidal but it was all fun to experiment.

Check out the Traveling Miles album also if you get a chance it’s a tribute to Miles Davis and is done really good imo , one of my favorites from her .

Yes, that was the second C.W. album I bought last night, both of them have the Qobuz Ideal discography . That is what the big Q is in the pic.. I haven't played too much Traveling Miles yet other than last night streaming. I have to say however that New Moon Daughter is already proving one of the best sounding Hi Rez albums I have! The tiniest detail is just crisp!!
I agree her recordings are top notch , glad to hear your having fun and enjoying the albums . I’m still learning myself and learning from you guys findings as well , so it’s all a great experience so far .

After two weekends, this for sure!^^^ This

Just ran across an amazing album. If you have a system/DAC with great detail retrieval checkout Houston Person / Ron Carter - Remember Love album.
So eery hearing Houstons breathe while playing the sax. Very good recording all around.
Speaking of Qobuz lack of discovery... With Roon you can turn on Radio, after the album/track that you played, it will start radio and play similar style songs. have discovered some good stuff this way (outside of apps like Pandora, Apple Music, etc. )

Spooky realism right there , sounds like him and his band are in my room , thanks for the recommendation.

Haha ikr it’s impossible, I gotta be hearing things .What are you smoking

Lol

Here goes some good quality albums/tracks to test a system . On the last two track , Rocket Man by HER you can hear the guitar amp buzzing so don’t worry it shouldn’t be your system . You can also compare the 16/44 vs 24 bit version of you want .

Here’s a few more quality recordings to put your system to the test, the Dominic Miller songs will put your low end to the test so warning if your speakers can’t handle deep bass.
P.S. these are all off Qobuz obviously but just for full disclosure wanted you all to know .
One more for good measure
