If you don’t give a s** about such things – Spotify is a much better experience overall. So if you’re into vocals, classical, jazz, even some rap AND you do invest in your setup – Tidal is the way to go. Beats, noise and lots of instruments are way harder to guess, especially with current mastering practices and algorithms that make a compressed music somewhat more pleasing to the ear. It’s this kind of music you would hear most of the difference anyway. With wavs being Perahia & Vega – which makes sense. It’s using a PC interface so I did not expect wonders but I still hit 2 wavs and 2 320 kbps. But if you invest, then parts of the chain matter. 10$ earbuds or cheap soundcard will sound the same. Coupled with Audirvana it is a whole world of difference and don’t let anyone tell you otherwise. I can tell the difference, but I also have a mid-range setup with Sennheiser HD700 + Matrix Mini-I Pro 2s DAC + USB Matrix X-Hi CARD which effectively make it a chain separate from the PC.
