I noticed slightly higher dynamics from several drum strikes and a few of Stevie's guitar riffs that gave the hi-res download the win. None the less, Tidal's streaming service through the N10 is impressive.
Thanks Dan. I too had a very similar reaction. Kinda makes you think twice about coughing up the moolah for the hi-res download.
