Tidal HiFi Streaming?

Tidal is adding new content daily. Downloading the player is better than webplay. Crowded bandwith but still early. So far, pretty INCREDIBLE.

Carja, both Tidal and Deezer (another similar CD quality streaming service) are available on Sonos, so a relatively inexpensive Connect is all you need. It is improved by using the digital output into a nice dac, but to get started, just get the Connect and try them both. I use both, Deezer is less expensive, but Tidal has a slightly more compatible catalogue for me.
I also have them on my Iphone and computer.

Like Arh, I too subscribed to Tidal for a short time. I cancelled my subscription after one month because (1) not all albums are in 44.1/16 - my experience indicated that perhaps about 25% of the ones I wanted to stream were not cd quality (or HiFi quality as labeled by Tidal) (2) a remote control app is not available so all interaction and program communication must be done at the connected computer (3) the gaps between tracks were long at best and frequently unbearably long at over 15 seconds, and this was with a high speed connection and dedicated macbook pro (4) I would get a static-like clicking on occasion during the louder passages on some albums that to me sounded like some type of clipping.

I really like the idea of high quality streaming and wish that Tidal would have been it for me. But it wasn't. At least not yet.

Using a sonos I found tidal to sound no better than Spotify premium. Has any one else done a comparison

I have been very pleased with Tidal. I used to use spottily on my wireless living room system, but would be disappointed in my main system, ( verity audio, herron, MSB ). I now listen to Tidal on both and have spent a whole day doing some serious listening to the main system just on tidal. I get no drop outs, no pauses between tracks that are not part of the normal recording and have discovered some great new music. I do wish the catalog was bigger, I particularly would like the ECM albums, they have them listed but no content at this time.
