I don't know why you think it would lower the quality of the player. The quality of the player is in his hands, not his ears. Some people are born able to play by sound and find it on the fretboard, some are not. Either way, you are getting to the same end; being able to play the song. And over time you will develop your ear to where you don't need to go find the tab because you'll recognize it soon as you hear it.
