StreamFidelitys QSound Playlists

[StreamFidelity]

QSound is a surround sound system from the Canadian company Q-Sound Labs. The process was developed in the 1980s. This creates a 3D sound effect for stereo recordings. The listener has the impression that the music extends far beyond the base width of the loudspeakers and also plays above or behind the head.

With the playlists it is uncertain whether the tracks were actually created with QSound algorithms. However, for me the instrument separation and stage are absolutely great.

For Qobuz listeners: Click on "Listen to Qobuz" and play.

For Roon listeners with a Qobuz account: Click on "Listen to Qobuz" and then click on the heart (add favorites). Then the playlist also appears in Roon.

Have fun

Thanks for providing the playlist. I found some really great material that expands the soundstage!

Thanks for sharing! If anyone else has a Qobuz playlist they'd like to share, please do...especially jazz-related. @StreamFidelity Hope I'm not hijacking the thread? Or perhaps others have shared playlists elsewhere?

I think sharing is a good idea. The forum lives from this. To stay in context, I suggest present QSound albums here.

My two favorites are Madonna, Immaculate Collection and Roger Waters, Amused to death

I also have Vogue , one of the songs from Immaculate Collection, on DSD 256 and the beginning of the song is a very good example of Q sound
