I’m currently using my iPhone 13 Pro Max as my music player, traditionally using Apple Music (lossless and HiRes Lossless). I have recently bought a Fiio Q3 amplifier and using a free trial of Qobuz. IEM’s are Dunu Titan S with 4.4mm Balanced cable.
I have noticed that playing the same album (even CD quality) on Qobuz the music sounds brighter, louder and more spacious. On AM the sounds seems veiled as though there is a cloth over my ears and I need to turn the volume up slightly.
I don’t understand the science of music technology, but is this normal? Surely Apple Hi Res Lossless should sound the same as CD quality on Qobuz. Is this just the normal benefit of moving over to a proper HIRes supplier?
Can anybody comment or advise?
