Has anybody tried Qobuz Streaming service?


Hi and thanks for reading!

Has anybody tried Qobuz and compared it to TIDAL? I read that Qobuz streams 24/196 files which may be higher than even TIDAL Master quality?? If you have made the switch to Qobuz, was it easy to integrate into your streaming system?

I look forward to hearing from people who have tried Qobuz and either loved it or disliked it compared to TIDAL.

Just got Qobuz on trial.  Far better fidelity IMO than Tidal, and I actually find the interface easier to manage. 

My problem is this -- More often than I'd like, transmission tends to cut off before a track ends.  Usually, I can get it working again by moving the blue line a bit further to the right, but this doesn't always work.  Longer selections, such symphonic movements, can be frustrating as hell to listen to.
I'm in regular email contact with Qobuz, and they suggest I try clearing my cache, but there doesn't seem to be any way to access the cache.  A video they have shows an easily accessible cache button, but the button is nowhere in evidence on my particular Qobuz.  Plus, would that even work?  I haven't listened to much stuff on them yet.
Anyway, experts please chime in!
I did a trial on both.  Wound up settling on Qobuz.
Did not find one thing on Tidal I could not find on Qobuz for my listening.

At first , I found Tidal very clunky compared to Qobuz but once I finally got my Roon hub that helped but with searching but  I settled on Qobuz moving forward.

I find the sound quality very good thru my Ayre DAC and Roon via USB.
edcyn, sorry to hear you are having problems, but you said nothing about the hardware/software you are using. Tough to help with a question like this without those details, along with your ISP info. Have you had any problems with video streaming from Netflix or another video provider?
The main problem with Amazon is that unlike Tidal, Qobuz and others, they will not share their interface requirements (API) with third parties. That means many of us cannot play Amazon music, lossless or not, through our systems without changing equipment.
