Apple Music Now with lossless high-res and spatial audio
So I just started using Apple Music. I’m finding that when I use iPhone and otg, my dac matches whatever output the song is. If I use Bluetooth I get 44.1. If I use android, tablet or old android phone and Apple Music , I get 192 on dac, bt or otg. Amazon music shows 192 no matter what I use...- tmb821

The Qudelix-5K thread
Funny thing is it did the same thing when using iPhone 12 with otg kit. I never use the 5k that way anyway, but I was just curious.- tmb821

The Qudelix-5K thread
So, when I hook my 5k up to be used as a dac with my phone, it automatically overrides to bt, ldac, but still. I have priority set to wired dac, but it always goes to bt. If I turn bt off on phone, then it works, but I can’t fiddle with the app that way…- tmb821

Amazon launches Music HD with lossless streaming
So I’m noticing that songs will stream on my iPhone 12 in 24/192, or 24/96, but will not stream on my android devices that way. They will play that way if downloaded. Am I missing something? Or is this just they way it is now, songs used to stream in 24/192-96 on android, but the highest they...- tmb821

Audio Technica ATH-M40x: The Little Brother that Could
Just picked up a pair of these. I was seriously underwhelmed with them in stock form. I changed the earpads to the brainwaves hm5 pads, then I converted them to balanced. I have them wired directly to the wires inside with a short cable that terminates in a male 2.5mm balanced plug. I run a Fiio...- tmb821
