PRO TIP: Use wired headphones for the best experience.
What is Hi-Fi Audio and Why Does it Matter for EDM?
Standard MP3 files cut out the "invisible" frequencies to save space. For EDM, this means losing the texture of the sub-bass and the crispness of the high-hats. High-Fidelity (Hi-Fi) audio provides a Lossless experience, meaning you hear exactly what the producer heard in the studio.
- 320kbps vs Lossless: While 320kbps is the "gold standard" for MP3, Hi-Fi pushes beyond 1411kbps for unmatched depth.
- The Soundstage: Hi-Fi allows you to "place" every synth in a 3D space, recreating a festival environment at home.
