Spotify is finally preparing to roll out lossless audio—a feature users have been waiting on for years.

🆕 What’s New:

Recent desktop app updates show “Lossless” appearing in audio settings, sitting alongside existing tiers like High and Very High. The new quality tier is labeled as:

• FLAC format
• Up to 1 GB/hour
• 24-bit / 44.1 kHz

📡 Spotify Connect Integration

Lossless audio also appears in the Spotify Connect device menu, hinting at playback support on compatible device

🎧 Headphone Enhancer Feature

Spotify is also testing a new “Enhance Your Headphones” tool. Internally dubbed “puffin,” it seems to boost audio quality for certain headphone models using what Spotify calls “innovative technology.” A compatibility checker is built in.

💰 Premium-Only?

Early signs suggest these features will be exclusive to Spotify Premium users.

🔊 Whether you can hear the difference between lossless and compressed audio is up for debate—but the tech is finally catching up to the promise.
