Finally "HiFi" streaming - comments on Tidal???

Tidalhifi has entered the streaming market with what it is calling "lossless" playback. I believe it is certainly the highest quality streaming service. I just got it ($20/mo) and it clearly out-performs Beats and Pandora on my systems. It is way cool to look up songs that I love but not enough to buy the CD to get a lossless recording. It's not cheap for sure but it sure is nice.

My next step is to try to get Amarra sQ to work with it. Anyone able to do that?

The tidal playlists are sweet and the system actually suggests music modeled after what you have listened to. Im on a 60's kick, so put in 'mamas & papas" and you can quickly get compilations, covers, anything you want. Hours and hours of music at your fingertips. And not MP3s!

I agree with Cerrot's post above. Tidal Hi-Fi is an excellent source for music streaming at CD quality. I have been listening for a week now and love it. Yes, it takes a few seconds to start an album and a few seconds between album songs but this is not a problem. Who cares! The sound quality is excellent. Tidal Hi-Fi offers great sounds since it is uncompressed internet audio streaming.

I'm loving it too.
Streaming via iPhone wired to my Lexus Mark Levinson and it sounds great. BT not so much. Wired it uses the car's DAC I presume.

Enjoy the music.

Isn't TidaL good for hirez, meaning better than cd quality. Does streaming from spotify or deezer sound anywhere close to an actual cd from a $3,000 cdp?
