Like every single other high fidelity streaming service out there, the music does get altered in some way shape or form for the most part it's still in flag quality and the alteration isn't always a bad thing it's just a matter of preference.

For example I don't like using Amazon HD because Jesus Christ they make all the files more bright.

But I do like the reply down below talking about how they make the files sound more smooth Jazzy on tidle.

With that being said currently I ultimately don't use any streaming services because I like to EQ on the Fly and roon is just so amazing.

I think your friends are blowing it out of proportion with title being garbage but I can understand the frustrations. For example I don't like any streaming service to claims to give me High Fidelity music and yet I can't check things like the metadata or see what kind of file it is is it 16 or 24?. It's a flac file but tell me what is the kbps?

Tidle withholds all that information.

Roon for life!

Yes I have, if your about to refer to that website, I am going to jist say rite now, that website is not the best enviroment for doing a a.b test.

Your windows is getting ahold of the data before it makes to the dac. Makes doing a/b tests harder and more exhausting.

But yes, I have done real a/b tests in controlled enviroments where its just the audio, not being altered/filtered though anything but my equipment.

Wasapi for life.

0 years into hifi, my hearing is regularly checked and it's perfect, I have (and had) tons of hifi equipment, and everybody saying that he can hear a difference, is basically lying. That because I do (on specific songs or songs part), and the difference is so tiny is laughable. Also I'm sure actually nobody can't do this test, and I have never seen someone doing so. Me neither of course. So everytime I see this kind of post I j

Try not to get offended on what I am about to say, but you lack the experience.

This comment will come off as a butt hurt elitist, but down the road, if you really do give a danm, you will have reached a point where you will think "danm I was so wrong".

I know I sound like a silly person, You will know what I mean when you get there....or not.

If you know, you know.

erence between mp3 320kbps and lossless, but everybody can hear good equipment vs bad equipment on either format. Just because people aren't going endgame extracting everything the human senses can catch from sound waves doesn't mean they're dumb or wasting mone

Anyone can tell the difference, you just have to train your ears for it my guy. It's a big misconception that "not everyone can hear it". If you don't train your ears to hear the difference then you wont notice.

That being said, do you love your current set up? Then fuck what I and everyone else thinks. As long as you enjoy your set up, then that's all that matters.

Also, not everybody can hear the difference between mp3 3

Somebody give this man a cookie, because you know your shit. It did not know about usb audio player pro until about 1 year ago. Now I am trully listening to lossless on my android phone (I use IEM or my btr7 for headphones).

The L-Dac codec sony has going on sounds smooth~ I will settle for L-Dac any day vs 320 kbps.

This hobby is subjective, but sometimes I get bamboozled when I see someone doing a review with a high tier equipment and use spotify.

Spotify is pretty trash from what I hear on my end. I am suprised you even mention youtube music. spotify blows youtube music out the water, that said, spotify still trash.

I use tidal, but for the past 2 years, I just purchase the flac files on bandcamp. Once I got into using roon, I never wanted to go back to using any other music listening software
