What can I say… except that I am extremely disappointed that in 2025 this streamer - otherwise exceptionally built -, does not have Tidal Connect implemented…
It is very hard to imagine that nowadays, a STREAMER, does not have this application implemented.
There are 3 major apps in the streaming world - Spotify Connect, Tidal Connect and …maybe Qobuz
And look, one is missing… and the one that’s missing is the one that has enough songs in lossless format…
Instead, we have Spotify Connect, an app that has ALL the songs in lossy format…
Spotify is great for discovering new songs… but for listening… no
Excellent choice Rose…
When all music lovers are trying to listen at the highest possible quality… we see this bad choice by Rose…
I know you can use Tidal with Rose Connect… but there are various shortcomings and problems…
And I really can’t understand how other, much smaller companies, have managed to implement Tidal Connect without problems
A shame, because Rose builds exceptional devices, made with a lot of responsibility, and with a special look
The main role of a streamer is to connect you to as many streaming services as possible at the highest possible quality… this is when you ask a high price for that streamer.
Unfortunately Rose didn’t quite make it…and it’s strange, because there are many streamers, with a much lower price, that have implemented ALL of these streaming services correctly.
I’m sorry to see this, especially since I really appreciate Rose’s products.
Rose is a company that has managed to surpass big names in the audio industry in a very short time.
Congratulations on this Rose…but…there are still a few critical aspects that need to be worked on.
And who knows… 2025 may bring you good things…and we will have the best and most complete streamer in the world.

We don’t want to add Tidal Connect and Spotify Connect either.
We would like to add Tidal Connect and Spotify Connect but it is not possible at the moment.
We are trying to add them when we get the chance.
Thank you again for your advice.
Rose we need Tidal Connect what’s the problem? Could you please elaborate why we can’t have it? I would totally appreciate on my RS130.
There is also Deezer, best streaming service from all. No useless HiRes, everything is 44.1/16, so no interaction with myriads of new masterings and mixes for the same old stuff. It has integrated song recognition, very good Flow and user interface. Unfortunately Rose is one of rare streamers which do not support Deezer.
