MaQobuz, the music lovers’ Hi-Res streaming and download provider, is now the first music service to deliver 24-bit Hi-Res audio streaming on Sonos. We will be launching a “Direct Control” feature by the beginning of 2018, which will let all of our users use our iOS or Android app as a remote control to play their music directly over Sonos speakers. The Qobuz logo also featured prominently at the various presentations of the brand’s new products! And now, it is continuing to expand access to higher-resolution streaming on Sonos by introducing 24-bit streaming, compatible with most products on the Sonos S2 platform, which supports up to 48 kHz/24-bit audio resolution. Qobuz and the US-based manufacturer began their partnership in 2012, then in 2013 started offering users a first-ever opportunity to stream an online music service’s entire catalogue, in CD-quality sound, over a hi-fi manufacturer’s speakers.Īt its October 4th launch, Sonos naturally cited Qobuz as one of its preferred partners. In 2013, Qobuz became the first music service to offer 16-bit FLAC streaming on Sonos.

When Sonos unveiled its latest products and features at a New York event a few days ago, its partnership with the Qobuz brand was shown to be stronger than ever.
