QBZ is a native Linux desktop client for Qobuz™, designed for high-fidelity playback.
Unlike browser-based players or web wrappers, QBZ uses a native audio pipeline with direct ALSA and PipeWire integration, allowing bit-perfect playback, exclusive device access, and proper per-track sample-rate switching for external DACs.
Browsers are limited by system mixers and WebAudio, often resampling audio to 48 kHz. QBZ bypasses these limitations to deliver true high-resolution audio up to 24-bit / 192 kHz on Linux.
Features:
QBZ is built for Linux users and audiophiles who care about how audio actually reaches their hardware.
Legal: QBZ uses the Qobuz™ API but is not affiliated with, endorsed by, or certified by Qobuz.
