Apple Music vs Tidal for SQ

I compared Tidal to Apple music for the first time using speakers, not headphones. Apple seems bright and a bit less smooth the tidal on my system. I never tried the apple codec before but so far not a fan, it seems to have treble that is a bit fatiguing. What is your experience?

I’m currently using Amazon HD and am planning on checking out Tidal in the new year. Amazon isn’t shiny at all, but I want to check out Apple, Tidal And Qobuz. Now I’m thinking that Apple might soon be off my list.

All the best.

Neither.  Go with Qobuz.  MQA is a total farce, and Qobuz has a lot more real hi-res content not altered by some mystical algorithm.

They both blow from what I’ve heard. Doesn’t matter which one is less bad. Give me Qobuz or give me (take me back to) Spotify.
