Original comment by Bluesound has now been deleted but there is now this below:
The deletion and this statement make sense to me. It remains to be seen whether the new updates allow 48kHz to be sent without downsampling to 44.1kHz.

I guess weâll wait for Airplay 3 for hi-res lossless support. Itâs only a matter of time.
The current rush by Apple is/was to get a head start on Spotify HiFiâŚ
The hardware will catchup.
Some people will inevitably get annoyed at possibly having to buy new hardware but such is life lol

Strange. My Mojo wonât have it unless I disable lossless. Will try on my other DAC and also with the Mojo connected to my Mac when home.
Thanks to everyone whoâs tried it for me 
Edit Gave it another listen and the Mojo only acts up when it hits the 0:29 mark. If I play from say 0:35 I have no issues whatsoever. Very strange.

Iâm not familiar with Mac or Apple settings, but check whether you can do exclusive audio with it. If not, make sure the output sample rate is manually set to the same sample rate as the music, and disable anything that seems to incur additional audio processing.
Also check whether you have audio software that interferes with it.
Currently play 16/44.1 music from Mac to my Lumin U1 Mini via AirPlay, and set upsample rate to 176.4 kHz in Luminâs app to feed my NOS DAC (352.8 will have pop and click noise). Sound much much better than connecting Mac to DAC via USB, and the Mac-USB-DAC approach doesnât support sample rate auto switching. Actually all I want to listen to is Apple Musicâs vast 90âs J-Pop library which Tidal and Qobuz lack, most of them are 16/44.1, so Iâm OK with the service at the moment.
Hope Roon will integrate Apple Music in the future, and I will cancel both Qobuz and Tidal subscriptions, because Apple Music subscription is very cheap in China, less than $2 / Mon, less than $1 / Mon when youâre in a family plan.

I tried a Beatles album listed at 24/192 and using a Hidisz USB dongle I was getting 24/96 or lower . I switched to the Onkyo app to play some downloaded 24/192 filed and they lit up the 192 khz light.
With iPhone/iPad and Apple lightning to USB3 adapter?
Tried other albums? How did they behave?
Ill try one with the apple camera adapter. I tried the lightning dongle that came with the Hidisz.

Tried Marvin Gayeâs Whatâs Going On album with camera connection adapter . Its listed at 24/192 and it is not playing at that level. Its playing at 24/96 or lower . Blue light will not light up on the Hidisz S8 .
So I downloaded the album and its still the same. Not playing at 192 khz.
I guess the question I have is, how does it sound?

Yes, fantastic album. Glad you like it. Towards the end of Liberty when the sax kicks in itâs sooo good!
Narrowed it down to my iphone X when playing through my dac or airplay to my streamer. Works fine when played from macbook to my two dacs and streamer.
Need a new phone anyways

Same on Qobuz UK. Only on Tidal and Apple but I think you can purchase the album from Bandcamp in FLAC.

Even if you download the album to your phone (via Apple Music app)?
Using official Apple lighting to USB adapter?
iPhone X shouldnât be a problem at all. Even my iPhone SE is doing ok lol
Is it just that track that acts weird for you? What about the next track?
And different album?
I havenât listened enough to make a judgement. I just got up and looked at my iPhone 11 Pro Max and it finally will let me choose all the proper settings. Iâll do some listening this morning.
Iâm confused hardware wise. Could someone help me understand?
I have HyperX Cloud II headphones because I work at home and needed headphones with a good microphone. I have the choice of two output devices. My Windows PC using iTunes and my iPhone 12.
Can I get the benefits of lossless and Dolby Spatial with that hardware? I know I canât with Windows iTunes, so at least with my iPhone as the source? I know I need a DAC for the Hi-Res Lossless, but would it be worth it to get a DAC for these headphones or are they not good enough?
If my hardware sucks, whatâs my next best option? $70 wired refurb Beats on Amazon? I know wireless Bluetooth headphones do not work with all of this.
