Deezer HiFi vs Tidal Audio Quality. Tidal vs Deezer sound quality has a lot in the dock. Deezer has a HiFi setting, which plays lossless FLAC files at 16-bit/44.1kHz, so long as you pay for Deezer HiFi. Deezer Free’s audio quality tops out at 128kbps via MP3 files, and Deezer.
Deezer has an annual for their non-hifi tier that saves you money ($89.91 vs $119.88). There is no equivalent plan on Qobuz. I was able to immediately find missing content on Qobuz that is present on Deezer by searching for the more obscure artists in my library. For example, the Russian band Bird Bone is missing my favorite releases. For Deezer's HiFi format with FLAC at 16bit bit depth, 44.1khz sample rate and max 1411kbps bit rate it means that it would have to be transcoded over a Bluetooth connection somewhere, and I doubt that this is possible with no losses. AirPlay is able to do this, because they use ALAC for any input source.
