Aspects of streaming that you should consider before investing in high-end audio
- The quality of the audio files: High-end audio streaming usually offers lossless or near-lossless formats, such as FLAC, ALAC, WAV, or AIFF. These formats preserve all the details and nuances of the original recording, unlike compressed formats like MP3 or AAC that discard some data to reduce file size. However, lossless formats also require more storage space and bandwidth than compressed formats. You should check the bitrate and sample rate of the audio files you want to stream, as well as the compatibility of your devices and platforms. A higher bitrate and sample rate means more data and better sound quality, but also larger file size and longer streaming time.
- The type of speakers or headphones: High-end audio streaming can enhance your listening experience by providing a more spacious and realistic sound field with two-channel audio systems. These systems consist of two separate speakers or headphones that play music from different locations or angles. You should choose speakers or headphones that match your personal preference, budget, and room size. You should also consider the drivers (the components that produce sound), tweeters (the drivers that produce high-frequency sounds), woofers (the drivers that produce low-frequency sounds), crossovers (the components that divide frequencies into different drivers), ports (the openings where sound enters or exits), and materials (such as wood, metal, plastic) of your speakers or headphones.
- The availability of content: High-end audio streaming may not have as much content as other platforms, especially from independent artists and labels. You may need to subscribe to multiple services or buy physical albums to access a wide range of music genres and styles. You should also check the licensing agreements between the platforms and the rights holders to ensure that you can stream any music you want without any restrictions or interruptions.
