Streaming resolution

I have an extremely revealing dedicated streaming only audio system, and like anything else, CD, vinyl, etc., some recordings, regardless of stated res, just sound better, or were better recorded than others.  Streamed music is no exception to the rule.  Happy listening.          

For me 24/48 is ideal as well. Wonder why?

I agree with @soix on this. The actual recording is so important. My system is very revealing to good recordings but bad recordings can sound terrible on my system. Not long ago my son and his friend were at my house and he chose to listen to a rap sound. It sounded absolutely terrible and this was on Tidal. I was actually shocked at how bad it was and they even commented on that. They shrugged it off that maybe my system wasn't designed for that type of music.

I  listen to Tidal, at MAX resolution is way higher then what you claim is better sounding at a lower rez output, I think If your not hearing the better sounding rez than maybe its time to look at your digital streamer or DAC or music player, because what i'm experiencing using a decent DAC (Oppo 105D) with a outstanding streamer (Aurender X100) is nothing short of digital bliss, it blows me away at how much better digital music (done right) sounds soooo much better now then 10-20 years ago.
