IIRC the Apple TV will still resample everything to 48kHz PCM but using both the Gen 2 and Gen 1 ATV4K as a 'streamer' has been a bit more successful for me than the aging Airport Express Gen2's I have that drop signal like crazy in my place.

Maybe Android or desktop apps are better.Ĭlick to expand.I do think you can actually do something more like the latter solution with use of the Apple TV for Apple Music, either as the direct player with it's remote or using your phone to control it. But good god the app is garbage on my iPhone. Qobuz does seem to have the biggest collection of 24/192 tracks.

If I had to rank the apps based on the app itself, user interface, search, discovering new music, etc, I’d rank them this way, best to worst:

But I do really enjoy the full hi-res Apple Music when my iPhone is connected directly to my portable DAC, and over headphones can absolutely hear an enjoyable difference between the hi-res services and Spotify. On the AirPort Express, I can’t really tell much of a difference between Apple Music and Spotify. The only drawback for me is that Airplay2 can’t take advantage of Apple Music’s full hi-res, which seems like an odd choice. And a good and growing collection of multichannel audio, which I like using on my Apple TV connected to my Sonos surround system.īut I listen to stereo music on my proper stereo, streaming via AirPort Express. App about as good as Spotify’s, and sound quality as good as the others. TIDAL Connect will be available for Edge NQ, CXN (V2), CXN (V1), CXR120/200, 851N and StreamMagic 6 V2.I think Apple Music is the best of all worlds.

APPLE TV TIDAL CONNECT UPDATE

We are currently working on a soon-to-be-available firmware update that will enable users to stream their favourite tracks at the touch of a button within the TIDAL app. UPDATE from Cambridge Audio: “TIDAL’s new Connect feature is coming to Cambridge Audio’s range of network players.

UPDATE from Naim: “We’ll be introducing TIDAL Connect support in 2021 via a free firmware upgrade to our latest generation of streaming products (Mu-so and Mu-so Qb 2nd Generation Uniti Atom, Star and Nova ND 5 XS2, NDX 2, ND 555).” We await further advice from these manufacturers and more. Hoping for an admin error on Tidal’s part, I updated my Cambridge CXN (V2) and Naim Uniti Atom to their latest respective firmwares…but no dice: neither appear inside the Tidal app as an available Tidal Connect device. However, in addition to KEF, Bluesound, NAD, Monitor Audio and DALI, Tidal’s list of supported devices, filtered by Tidal Connect, includes Naim and Cambridge whilst simultaneously pointing us at each manufacturer’s own streaming app: Cambridge’s Stream Magic and Naim’s Naim. Hello DALI active loudspeakers, wassup NAD M33 and M10 super-integrateds and how’s it going Monitor Audio IMS-4? I’ve confirmed with my own eyes and ears that Tidal Connect works with the KEF LS50 Wireless II and the Bluesound Node 2i, the latter suggesting that any BluOS-controllable device running up-to-date firmware should be Tidal Connectable. Which streaming devices currently support Tidal Connect?

MacOS and Windows users are also invited to the Tidal Connect party.

“One of”? Oh – does it work with Tidal’s desktop apps? No more manufacturer-coded streaming apps, no more Roon, no more Plex and no more Audirvana.

It gives us something that Spotify Connect currently does not: the ability to stream CD-quality and hi-res content – in addition to its less-often discussed lossy tier – from the comfort of our couch and without relying on third-party integrations. Neither is supported by Google’s Chromecast. Two reasons: 1) Gapless playback 2) MQA Masters. Why would I use Tidal Connect instead of Chromecast?
