I am not sure I am really getting what I will be paying for. I would like the highest possible sound quality to pump through my system. I am considering Sonus or Bose Soundtouch Link as the hardware and either Tidal or Deezer as the provider.
I have an Essence HDACC DAC which has inputs for optical, coax, HDMI and line level inputs. It is supposed to up the sample rate and bit depth. I use the balanced outputs to feed my preamp.
Although I hear that these services are "high quality" I don't see any real specifications on all that technical mumbo-jumbo where you could put them side by side for comparison. I have tried google and gone to the websites for the hardware and services but I can't find anything except "trust us, we are providing the highest quality..."
Of course I will use the optical or coax outputs from the hardware. Can anyone show me in definitive terms just how good this equipment/services is?
