Hi, I just checked the Browse and Hear This sections in the beta desktop app and could not find a related HiFi playlist from Deezer where they recommend some tracks to listen to as examples for high quality sound. But maybe I have just overlooked it.
It would make sense for users who actually have access to the HiFi setting, but also for other interested people who are thinking about switching to a HiFi account. You should make sure that all of the included tracks are definitely streamed from FLAC files of course and are not just transcoded from MP3 files, as we cannot check this e.g. in the beta desktop app.
If you need suggestions, I'm sure there are lots of users who would contribute to such a playlist, also Spotify has related playlists with recommendations for headphone listening or with audiophile classical music for example (although they do not offer lossless streaming in FLAC format, only 320kbps Ogg Vorbis):

I am collecting some albums at the moment on my Kabeltest playlist which I have converted from Spotify to Deezer with Soundiiz.com for free. It mostly contains well-known older albums with excellent and/or "critical" sound that I had used in the past for listening tests at home testing cables or loudspeakers. The typical genres in my case would be great recordings of classical music e.g. by the Decca label and also "classic rock" like Alan Parsons or Tom Waits (album cover for Frank's Wild Years is still missing, by the way):

Thank you,@Rafael. This weekend I found the time and motivation for comparing Deezer's lower quality settings with HiFi in another related thread about Airplay:

Any update on that topic? I want to enjoy my hi fi account. Please, is there any hi fi playlist created?
Well, at least you can now check the currently used audio quality in Deezer, so the need for such a recommended playlist by Deezer is not as essential anymore as it was when I suggested this idea. Of course you could also check my short list in the mentioned related thread, or simply convert Spotify’s mentioned playlists e.g. with TuneMyMusic.com or Soundiiz.com or any other playlist converter tool, but watch out for differing tracks from other releases which may be found instead.
Also note that personal musical taste of course varies a lot between users, so what a typical audiophile classical music nerd would use to compare will naturally differ from a hip-hop or electro fan who needs as much low bass content as possible.
OK, looks like this has been implemented now and is called HiFi Room. Check out this link, it should work in the web player and on mobile devices. It is also available in the desktop app, see the screenshot:

Here are some more screenshots from the web player done with Opera which can capture the whole browser page from top to bottom, but also with a small bug when several frames are involved.
The HiFi Room consists of three sections:
The first screenshot shows an overview of these three sections in the HiFi Room, followed by examples of the different parts (sorry for the somewhat broken Opera images):
