What do I need to ensure I’m getting the best experience with HiRes FLAC?

The exact sound quality that artists and producers hear when they record music can be recreated through your speakers when listening in HiRes FLAC. To get the full experience, we suggest you research if the digital-to-analog converter (DAC) on your listening device can fully support the format (lossless 24-bit, 192 kHz) as well as use a wired or WiFi connection.

What is the difference between HiRes FLAC, FLAC, and Immersive?

HiRes FLAC is the distinction we make for any Free Lossless Audio Codec (FLAC) file that is greater than 16-bit, 44.1 kHz, which is the standard CD quality. HiRes FLAC on TIDAL can deliver superior sound in files as large as 24-bit, 192 kHz.

FLAC is a two-channel, stereo format meaning music is mixed with a left and right speaker (or headphone) in mind. Immersive formats are multi-channel meaning music is mixed with a three-dimensional space in mind, meaning sound is placed to the left and right but also above, below, and all around you.

What file types are included in Max quality?

You’re getting the best quality version of any song on TIDAL by selecting Max quality. The source file you receive depends on the format(s) delivered to us by the artist, label, or distributor. The hierarchy of availability is HiRes FLAC, then FLAC, then AAC (compressed audio), meaning that, if we don’t have the file available in HiRes FLAC, the source file will be the FLAC version and so on.
