So on my Linux box, I did some testing and removed the dmix layer. Tidal HiFi gets close to Clementine MP3 V0, but every song still has noticeably more depth with Clementine. Not sure what else I can do with the Mac.
Here's my setup if you're curious:
Mac: [Music] > USB Schiit Modi > Schiit Vali > Beyerdynamic T90
Linux: [Music] > Optical Schiit Modi > Mackie MR6mk3
Where [Music] is either Clementine playing FLAC/MP3V0, or Chrome playing Tidal HiFi.
I have no idea, I don't imagine Chrome has any sort of downsampling (afterall, Tidal HiFi only works on Chrome).
I have ripped CDs of the same track played through Foobar vs. Tidal HiFi and couldn't hear a difference.
