Hi,

I have a moment with BL20s.and Beogram 9000

I purchased a line in cable to connect the iPad direct to the moment.

When I play from the Deezer app it shows HQ in the album artwork, not flac as has been reported elsewhere.

I haven’t seen any change in the B&O app.

I prefer to use the line in for my Beogram.

The line in sensitivity adjustment on the moment seemed to make no difference to the volume setting. Beogram 9000 is fine, iPad connection from the headphone socket is very low.

Has anyone else seen this?

I haven’t heard a massive difference between HQ from Deezer and playing through the B&O app, but with the messing around with connectors, and input sensitivity settings , I have not given it a proper test. However, when I get the opportunity to have a good listen , if I don’t get a difference I will downgrade my Deezer subscription,

Still waiting for firmware 2.2 🎶

B&O fan since 77.

When you have DeezerHiFi then on the iPad or iPhone you will not get FLAC but only the HQ.

As far as I know HiFi is only supported on selected Audio equipment. Luckily B&O is among those since a few days. Lets have a Party !!!

So if you use your iPad as source then you will get HQ not FLAC.

Not that I’m aware of. I have tried to search for ECM and a couple of playlist came up but not very helpful.

I guess we will have to rely on knowledgeable users to build some playlists and it is a suggestion I’ll make to Deezer, i.e. label search capability

I guess you have to pick record by record. 

Maybe this link can help.

I’ve got a Beosound Moment, and there still isn’t an official update to allow Deezer Hifi (flac) to be played.

Does anyone know when this update will be available?

Thanks.

The B&O website says that the moment is compatible with Deezer Hifi. Guess we just need the 2.2 software to make this happen, lets hope it is not too long away

Do i need to play music on Deezer on the Bang Olufsen app, Beolink 2 app to play with HIFI quality? Or does it work to play it on the Deezer app, and cast/airplay it to a speaker/system.. ?

I am going around in circles.

Switched the Deezer account to Hifi. But how would I know if I am actually playin Flac on the moment?

The screenshots of the app in this thread seem to be different (old version?) as the screenshot notes.

I asked the Deezer support as I expected my account was wrong but their reply was even more confusing;

Quote:

For the B&O speakers, you need to play via the B&O app and set the quality to enhanced on your Deezer. That would automatically give you FLAC.

I tried the deezer windows beta app and that seem to play flac

Any tips how I can confirm flac on the Moment?

For now, only the 2.2 beta version can handle Deezer HiFi.

When playing hifi, the FLAC word follows the Deezer logo on in the JukeBox interface

It should be easy to confirm if it is playing in higher quality. You should HEAR the difference.

I can't hear the difference on my speakers.

I can't hear the difference between Tidal HiFi and Tidal studio using H6 mk1 and mk2 with a headphone DAC.

So I just started to enjoy actually listening to music again instead of fiddling around with audio equipment and on-paper quality.

 

Not saying others can't hear the difference.
