Qobuz have announced that they will preview their HiRes Audio music streaming and download service at CEDIA Expo in the San Diego Convention Center.
Qobuz offers an extensive catalogue of HiRes audio (24-bit, up to 192kbps) including hard-to-find jazz and classical albums and tracks. Qobuz works on Mac, iOS, Android, and Windows on both mobile and desktop and is integrated with a large range of high end HiFi equipment.
‘We are excited to give industry professionals the opportunity to experience first-hand the amazing quality across all genres that our extraordinary music service offers,’ said Dan Mackta, Managing Director of Qobuz USA. ‘Qobuz offers streaming to your phone or computer in standard FLAC files, so no special hardware is needed for the highest resolutions.’
In addition to 24-bit audio, Qobuz has editorial content containing hundreds of thousands of album reviews, interviews, biographical articles, digital booklets, photographs, artwork and a sophisticated recommendation and curation component.
‘We’ll be showing a sample of partner equipment in our booth, including Sonos, DCS and Naim. Other partners, such as Anthem and Paradigm will be playing Qobuz exclusively in their dedicated sound rooms, where the best sound quality is paramount,’ said David Solomon, Chief HiRes music evangelist.
