![]() And then there’s Tidal, which has historically targeted consumers who seek a higher-quality audio experience. I suggest giving even just Spotify direct in the Chrome webapp a try again if not Tidal and ensure you have the chain configured properly. But Spotify still hasn’t said when this product might become available. I'm very surprised you were not able to notice a difference with such a great stack as the HD800s + Mojo and suspect it was something else in the chain limiting the potential. The downsides are this only currently works in the US (IIRC) and navigation in the Chrome Browser app is very limited compared to the desktop app. ![]() There is an upside to streaming from the Spotify Chrome app for 1411kbps which doesn't incur extra cost but this is all functionality Spotify is not advertising. The Masters tracks still are noticeably better than the Spotify on Chrome app playing at 1411kbps. Spotify has been streaming 1411kbps for most tracks through their browser player in Chrome and only then I notice little difference between Spotify and Tidal HiFi.

Tidal is a music streaming service that was launched in 2014 by Norwegian company Aspiro. Im referring to their 'Hifi' content, not MQA. TIDAL previously held the edge over Spotify with a whopping 70 million songs, but the streaming giant has closed the gap. Currently, almost all tracks on Tidal at the HiFi tier are 1411kbps (non-Masters) and still the Spotify desktop app caps out at 320kbps. If you are listening on quality equipment, Tidal will sound noticeably better. Songs streaming with Tidal sounded fuller, with warmer tones that give bass a nice little oomph. ![]() Even non-Masters tracks on Tidal sound significantly better. Tidal has a large music library that has more than 60 million tracks in it. I've experienced a significant improvement listening to Tidal Masters tracks over Spotify. Tidal Vs Spotify, YOUR experience Alright guys I have started a few threads now describing that I'm new to Tidal and still in the comparison stage to Spotify which I'll always keep as here in New Zealand it's essentially free if you have a mobile phone and plan.
