Available in 26 countries across Europe, the United States, Canada, Australia, New Zealand, Latin America, and Japan, Qobuz is aimed at all those seeking an authentic and fulfilling musical experience.
With more than 100 million tracks in lossless quality – CD, Hi-Res (24-bit/up to 192 kHz), DXD, and DSD – Qobuz offers the richest Hi-Res catalog on the market, recognized by the world’s leading hi-fi brands. It stands out for its commitment to preserving original recordings, in addition to its human touch with unique editorial content, expertly curated playlists, liner notes, and more.
