About 4 years ago when trying to decide which music service to go with, I did a comparison of a few songs I am very familiar with using, and this is key, the exact same album on both QoBuz and Tidal. Both in CD-quality, not Hi-Res. After closely listening, in my opinion QoBuz sounded a little more realistic and micro-detailed on all the songs than Tidal, so I went with QoBuz. I have not tried Tidal again since, and I have been really satisfied with QoBuz as well as their array of music. As others have stated, your personal tastes and experience will be the judge of which to use. Good luck choosing your music source...
Tidal FLAC vs. Qobuz
Does the recent change by Tidal, from MQA to FLAC make Tidal the better choice for streaming? Or, since Tidal only seems to offer FLAC on its own app and not the BluOS defeat the purpose since you need to transmit by Bluetooth instead of ethernet?
Currently, I stream from Tidal over direct ethernet cable to a Bluesound Vault streamer, to a McIntosh amp and Revel speakers. I have a trial membership to Qobuz but I find Tidal has a much better catalog. Since Tidal added Flac I thought it would be the obvious choice moving forward, but isn't the point of FLAC defeated since you need to send wirelessly from the Tidal app over Bluetooth?
