I currently have Tidal and also had a Qobuz 30 day free trial at the same time. What I found was that SQ was VERY recording dependent. Sometimes a recording sounded better on Qobuz and another recording sounded better on Tidal. I found this to be true both with Hi-res (MQA vs. 24/96 FLAC) and standard redbook streaming. To me, the only reason not to get Qobuz is if your streamer/DAC allows for a full unfold of MQA. If, however, you can do full MQA, then the decision comes down to content.
Qobuz Users Update?
the service in the USA has been out a few months now. initial posters on this site commented on good sound quality in hi rez but a limited catalogue. I listen mostly to Jazz and Classical. Would anyone who has been a user from the get go please comment on your experience? I've been a Tidal guy for years and am fairly satisfied. Thanks to anyone taking the time to comment
