Qobuz vs Airplay

Yeah. Arcam tells me I have to control it and through Chromecast or UNDP To gain above 44 on Qobuz or Tidal.   I can check back on what they say about Apple Music   My impression was Apple Music was limited to 44 but I see someone said otherwise

Apple Music is high res, but like Tidal and I think Qobuz, their library ranges from 16/44 to 24/192.

Honestly I have to really try hard to hear the difference between 16/44 and anything higher, and 16/44 is certainly sufficient.  I grew my audiophile ears on CDs, so that's my baseline.  I can hear the difference between 16/44 and many Spotify 320kbps tracks.  Unacceptable for anything but background music.  If Spotify ever gets off its fat ass and releases its high res tier, I'll probably switch to that because I already have a Spotify family account for my wife and kids, and I think it's "radio" functionality is better than Tidal's.

Prior system had Simaudio 390 NP with ARC VS115, ARC LS17, and Revel F32. Used Qobuz 95% to stream over other streaming apps. IMO, Qobuz sounded so much better than Apple Music/ITunes via AirPlay especially with Simaudio 390 NP.

Alpiner.  Thanks for that Apple support link    I can’t see how from the link one can listen to 192 lossless on Apple Music to other than an Apple device and even if I’m reading it correctly, an Apple TV won’t support lossless

1. Select or unselect Lossless. Apple TV 4K currently doesn’t support Hi-Res Lossless (sample rates greater than 48 kHz).

so for Apple Music, how does one listen to greater than 48 kHz on other than an Apple device?

I don’t use Apple Music, and (edit) HEOS does NOT support it at full resolution.  Yeah I came to the same conclusion about the Apple TV box, which I have.  It’s a shame because I otherwise like the Apple ecosystem.

If you’re not into HEOS, I can recommend Cambridge Audio streamers like the MX10 I had before HEOS supported Tidal and Qobuz.  It has a fabulous DAC and a fabulous app for playing Qobuz or whatever.
