It’s the same deal with Qobuz, who’s offering a 24bit/192kHz streaming (when available) for €19.99 per month, or €14.99 if you commit annually with “Studio Premier”.

For example, with Tidal, you can pay $9.99 a month for 320kbps streaming or upgrade your subscription up to the Hi-Fi level and access FLAC/MQA streaming, for $19.99 a month or $24.99 if you want the family account and share with 5 people. Usually, streaming providers offer different service-tier, depending on the sound quality you want to access. Last but not least, we can’t review Amazon’s new service, without talking about the price. Max Richter sounded better on Apple Music, but like the last time 5 times out of 10, I could not spot which was which. In terms of details though, again, it was really hard for me to spot a difference on pop tracks, even with Mark Ronson’s album.

When using the iPhone, the volume difference becomes apparent, and I assume that Apple uses some software enhancement on the iPhone for that reason. And if I’m a big fan of Amazon Prime Video service, with shows like The Grand tour or Jeremy’s Farm, for my music, at the time of writing, I’ll always favor Apple Music. Both services come from behemoths who have billions available to spend so they can crush their opponents. So no real winner here, but Amazon already has access to millions of customers.Īpple Music VS Amazon Music: Finally, I had to compare Apple’s service to Amazon’s. On the bright side, Qobuz curator’s insights are really pleasant to read and Amazon Music is incredibly fast to load your tracks. But, both apps came with caveats: Qobuz search engine is bad, at best, while Amazon’s Music fonts give me headaches. The result? A tie on details, but a sensation that Qobuz was slightly clearer than Amazon Music, even if not by much. Thankfully, the two albums I spotted earlier were available in Hi-Res, on both platforms. First, because both don’t share the same catalog, Qobuz prefers to focus on Classical/Jazz, while Amazon Music seems to prefer “modern” genres like Hip-Hop, RNB, or Pop. Qobuz VS Amazon Music : the comparison became even harder with Qobuz. That said, the Tidal interface is keener to my eyes and if ergonomics is important to you, pick Tidal. This time, Amazon took the lead and UltraHD felt much more natural than MQA, with crisper details and more importantly, a wider dynamic range. On the other hand, as I did with Apple’s Music, I added Max Richter Four Seasons – Recomposed to the mix. On Late Night Feelings by Mark Ronson, it sounds absolutely the same to me. Tidal VS Amazon Music : head to head, on pop songs, the difference is hard to spot for me.
Once again, we’ll compare Amazon Music to its lad: Spotify, Qobuz, Tidal, and Apple Music.

Meaning that Amazon Music will take full control of your audio circuitry, to output the best possible sound, as Audirvana does for example.Īll in all, if you can go past the design, Amazon Music HD offers exactly what it promised: HD music.
Even though it seemed like Apple Music output was a little more dynamic range to my ear, but that may be iOS optimizations as I couldn’t hear this on my PC.įinally, If you’re an OSX user, you’ll be happy to know that the Amazon Music app supports exclusive mode. I only managed to spot which was which 3 out of 10, and I think that was mostly luck. And, once again, I asked my GF to switch between Amazon and Apple Music, without me knowing.Īnd, honestly, if the Spotify VS Amazon or Spotify VS Apple Music battle were an easy one, Amazon VS Apple Music was much more difficult. Like all Hi-Res available tracks, this one embedded the “Ultra HD” logo, ensuring that I’d be able to enjoy and High-End experience. Next, I did the same test with the TR-AMP and my mighty HD-800S and choose a track that was available in HD – Leave the Door Open from Silk Sonic. I’m sure that Apple did their best to make the best software/hardware combination for their AirPods, but the fact remains that Apple Music completely overthrew Spotify on that first listening and surpassed Amazon Music HD too.
Bass hit deeper, some effects appeared more vivid, and going back to Amazon felt like a small, but real drawback. At the same exact volume settings, switching from Amazon Music to Apple Music significantly improved the dynamic range. And, unsurprisingly, Apple Music came up as the clear winner here.
