If you cant hear the difference between tidal and spotify premium there is something going on.
Yes, Tidal Masters do sound very different. Maybe it's the Firestick 4K.

Chess, that woke me up.  I was being facetious, Mojo style. Didn't actually expect a response. I couldn't be sure so, Mojo style, I wanted to provide a very clear answer. ,

So I got Tidal, listened to a few tracks and then the same through my apple tv/music. The Tidal sounds better, not miles better, but you can hear a difference. More detail, not louder, but more detail for sure. Doing a/b comparisons you can tell. Will be my new goto place to listen to music for sure!

I've never heard of Tidal, do they have family plans like Spotify and Google? Tidal's web page doesn't seem to give pricing just a free trial. For me the family plan value at Spotify is a great deal, six accounts for $15 Cndn. per month. The wife and the four kids all get their own account on my tab. Do any receivers or equipment have Tidal software built in?

Thanks for the link, Trevor. Glad I don't have that problem.

Listening to more Tidal today. So not the best interface, actually the interface sucks, but the sound quality on the mastered tracks rock. Perhaps i'm doing this wrong. I'm using music cast on my iPhone which goes right to my Tidal playlist. I have to setup the playlist on the Tidal first though. Does this seem like SOP, or a newb error.
