I’ll be the Philistine here. I use an Android tablet and Chromecast Apple Music to my Cambridge Audio streamer. It sounds pretty good to me. If I use my iPhone then it’s AirPlay, which is a slight tick below Redbook Quality
Apple Music streaming vs "direct" connection
With all the streaming options these days, Anyone play around with different configurations to stream Apple Music while staying in their ecosystem?
Iphone>Apple Music>Airplay>Airport Express> amp. (may not be true lossless per Darko article)
Ipad>Apple Music> Apple headphone adaptor>amp (Ipad outputs 24/48, headphone adaptor dac does 24/48 - or so they say)
Any other configurations?
