Thanks brehs, will I notice a difference via Spotify and tidal if I stream on high? Will only notice if I have downloaded music via x amount of kps or whatever the fukk that shyt is?

I listen to all my music on hifi/masters so I haven’t had experience with anything below that for years. Unless we talking mixtape songs or YouTube, but I only play those through my speakers and not my headphones. And when I downloaded music it was typically m4a but I did have a lot of 320kbs quality songs. the quality is supposed higher, but you don’t notice much of a difference b/w m4a and 320kbs but I still used m4a format since I saved all my music on iTunes. So if you can make sure all your music is the highest quality you can get. Don’t be out here listening to 128kbs quality songs bro.
As for noticing the difference b/w hi-if and high you should, but that isn’t always the case, some people will say, “omg it sounds way better, and all I use are $50 headphones”. While someone will say, “I have top of the line equipment, and I still barely hear the difference”

Just like anything else you have to experice it for yourself. Try the tidal hi-fi free trial and see how you feel.

Those Sennheisers I mentioned above, cost $1000. The Grados are $750 and the oppo amp was $400.

Damn.....

Theirs low, high, and HiFi. Thank you

Low is 128-192kbs. high is 320kbs and hi-fi is lossless. Always go high. The difference from low to high is much more apperant to the average listener than the difference from high to Hi-Fi.
Think of it like TV’s. 480p to 1080p is huge and you don’t need the highest quality television to see the difference. While someone with a below average-average 4K tv will say the difference is there, but probably not that big of a jump while someone with a 4K lg OLED tv with HDR will tell you the jump is tremendous.

If you are primarily listening to hip-hop and R&B then no it is not worth it. The only time I definitely noticed a difference is when I listened to Hector Lavoe, Tidal would pick up certain layers of sound that wasn't nearly apparent on Spotify. I did not notice a change when I listened to hip-hop and R&B though.

And I'm using a ATH M50's with FiiO E7 DAC Amplifier. You don't have to spend mad bread to get high quality sound.

You might think you can tell a difference with cheap headphones, try doing some blind tests and see how you do. You probably won't be able to tell the difference, just stick with Spotify unless you can really take advantage of it.

I’ve had Spotify, apple, tidal, and currently rocking with pandora. I still remember how good the quality was on regular tidal so I can only imagine how good the Hi Fi is. It’s exoensive but if you wan the best quality sound from a mobile phone then that’s going to be it.

So hip hop is too "simple" to be appreciated by the HiFi quality sounds?

fukk outta here cac

HiFi Tidal with Iphone USB connection to car is the ONLY way you should be listening to music in the car. Any other way is uncivilized!

When I younger I spent hours every night downloading music. I don't have time for that shyt anymore. I love streaming.

Only people I know still pirating music are DJ's, but even they use streaming to decide what's worth doing downloading

I still download everything for free cause I wanna actually own it not just hope it's still on Tidal when I wanna hear it. I've already favorited some stuff on Tidal then when I've gone back to it a couple months later it's greyed out so yeah. I download everything but I still have Tidal to support Jay

Hi-Fi is definitely worth it's by far better sound quality than the other streaming services plus they got concerts and good podcasts

Indeed. Dude needs to chill.

At least I go out and actually buy my favorite artists music, while that loser (and the other losers dapping his posts calling me a “cheap fukk” and calling others cacs) spend time crying at others who don’t agree with investing in Tidal...one of the many streaming services where you’re still not actually owning the music.

Ath M50x is like $100-120 a nice starter headphone

Get some replacement earpads and you're good to go on quality for non audiophile needs
