I'd like to add that I compared Tidal, streamed from my ipad and sent via optical cable on an Airport express, to Tidal directly integrated into the Dialog.
The Dialog direct Tidal had much better instrument focus and a slightly wider soundstage. The depth of the soundstage also seemed clearer. Instruments as a result were far more precise, particularly with plucked strings.
I was quite surprised at the difference, actually.
Deezer sounds awful to me. Spotify via ipad streaming sounds much better for low res music.
