Expected Behavior vs Actual Behavior

I expected spotDL to download from Soundcloud in the highest quality with stereo audio possible (the song plays in that way on Soundcloud), but instead I received a low-quality mono MP3.

Steps to reproduce - Ensure to include actual links!

  1. Run python -m spotdl download "https://soundcloud.com/vyletpony/narcissus|https://open.spotify.com/track/2ffKR2aAHqefl2hWLf3b6A" --user-auth --config --lyrics synced --cookie-file ./../cookies.txt
  2. SpotDL dumps a low quality MP3 with no errors

Traceback

Other details

I will look into this, in the meantime can you try downloading the soundcloud track with yt-dlp?
