Opinion: of the Hi-Res streaming services out there, which do you use and why?


I use Amazon Music for cost and useful feature of identifying the quality of the stream and what your listening device is delivering.  I will admit catalog could be better but value is there.  I’m curious about other opinions that have tried other hi-res services

It all depends on your system and the synergy of the music services as rendered by your streamer. I have tried Tidal, Qobuz and Amazon HD and preferred Tidal over others. I have a MQA capable DAC and it sounds great to me. And cost wise BestBuy has Tidal subscription deals which makes it really cost effective. $49. For first year and $120 for renewals for their top tier. While Tidal ‘promotes’ certain genre of music, I had found they had pretty much the same releases as Qobuz, and if you have Roon it pretty much recommends the music for you based on your listening history.

Try out the free trials of each of the services and compare for yourself. Each person’s experience will be different.
