The big question is what sounds better. Tidal Hi-Fi subscription or Qobuz. Someone demonstrated Qobuz in a blind test and I picked Qobuz every time. Problem is I am not willing to give up the Tidal format. I was sold on the idea of hooking up my Node 2i to my ARCAM via digital cable. The guy from the Cable Company told me the DAC inside my ARCAM was better than the DAC inside the node 2i. However, don't I give up being able to reproduce hi-res up to 24/192? I believe Qobuz does not need to fold the music files 7 times like Tidal. Perhaps as a result Qobuz is able to unfold faster and image better.
