Upgraded to Premium-not hearing sound quality difference

Solved!

Upgraded to Premium-not hearing sound quality difference

Hi,

 I upgraded to the Spotify Premium Account in large part for the improved audio quality. When I go to the preferences panel and toggle the "High quality streaming" button on and off, I can't hear any difference at all in the sound quality.

 Should there be an immediate change in the streaming quality, or do I have to wait for a minute or restart the program to effect the change?

 I am listening on a custom built PC, less than one year old, with a nice soundcard, running Windows 7, and listening thru some Sennheiser HD 202 headphones.

Thanks in advance!

Dave

With these headphones and via a normal pc / gaming soundcard you will hardly be able to hear a difference.
