Youtube audiophile hi res sounds MUCH better than my Eversolo streamer

Here's another one.  

No it's from my Sony tv's Youtube app.  I have it going through an Anthem AVM70 via HDMI ARC into the Parasound JC5 amp and to speakers.  I use HT bypass so my 2ch is similar except it uses the Anthem STR preamp..

So, from my tv youtube app, when I play these "audiophile hi res" recordings/videos, they sound significantly better and more "alive".. I'm not talking about a minor difference.

Well yes, I guess. I just played the album version. But I've never heard such a vast difference.  It's like every recording on Youtube is extremely high res or something.  Go search Audiophile audio system test or something like that. You'll find several 2+ hour long "videos"... All of them sound amazing compared to most all streaming I've done..  Youtube just sounds extra clean, crispy, and dynamic especially with percussion. I kills me to use this term but the streaming sounds very vailed.. This is NOT a small difference.  Again, I'm just wondering if youtube "HDRs" it's music or something.  

More info - my system:

Kef Reference 5 / Anthem STR pre / Parasound JC5 amp / Lumin T2 / Eversolo A6 master and A8.

It has to be something other than simple bitrate. If you're a photographer, the difference is like taking a raw straight out of camera image and applying HDR to it but in a good controlled way.

I found this as I was demo'ing my speakers and didn't have 2ch set up.. i had to find something fast on Youtube and found all these audiophile recordings with really cool imagery.. Sounded great.. so I played similar tracks through Tidal on my 2ch set up and sounded just whatever.

Find me any percussion on Tidal or Qobuz or anywhere that sounds this good.

Those are just a few.  If nothing else, the playlists are better than anything I've found on Tidal.  I just play them in the background and discover alot of new music, but when I go to Tidal to play it, it's disappointing.

Ok Soix thanks for looking. I'll try to do the same when I get home.  I do need more cross referencing obviously.  I've never heard a notable sound quality difference in Tidal vs Qobuz. 

Also, i'm not sure how much difference this makes but I do pay for Youtube Red.

Thanks @mattw73.  I do think one difference is those tracks on YT are cherry picked to be the best sounding/recorded versions of each song. I've had a really hard time finding those exact recordings in Tidal (and I tried some other platforms too). They seem to be specially made recordings originally designed for superior audio quality.

Bitrates aside, I'll be using this to demo my speakers I sell from now on if possible.
