I used to have itunes radio delivered by appletv straight into my dac, and it sounded great fo what it was, not to mention free. Since an imbecile removed the service, i stream spotify through roku and my tv dac, and it does not sound near as good. It's comparable to pandora....great for discovering music, but frustrating audio-quality wise.
Spotify sounds compressed
So now that I have more time to mess around with things like this, I started using Spotify and went premium right away. But it sounds compressed. I looked in the settings and the high quality streaming switch is on. When I switch it off, there is no change in sound.
I have my Samsung tablet hooked up to the preamp using it as the source while using my Asus notebook to manage things. The settings on the tablet are set to receive extreme quality signals. When I listen to Radio Tunes the signal sounds much better with extended highs and very deep lows. It just seems to me that the Spotify highs are compressed, not very extended. Is this the norm? I think Spotify is excellent for finding new music, but it doesn't sound the best.

As Spotify free users, I'm used to downloading and converting Spotify music to MP3, WAV, M4A, etc with Spotify Music MP3 Downloader. It is for all Spotify free users to get premium rights in easy steps. You can catch more info about Spotify to mp3 converter. |
