Pål Bråtelund, strategic partnership manager HiFi at Tidal, said: "We are committed to making TIDAL the go-to music streaming service for those that care about quality."

Tidal's integration with the Roomplayer+ is not the only recent partnership for the service either, with Auralic confirming in the past week that its Aries Streamer Bridge now supporting Tidal too.

The Aries serves as a bridge between the Tidal service and your DAC, which Auralic says means you can stream high-res music at "virtually any sampling rate" without the need for a computer.
