Presumably, you’re not interested in something with Airplay/Airplay2 (I think your Auralic will have at least one of those anyway). In which case I suspect that such a device doesn’t exist, particularly if it’s high res streaming you’re after without using hinky connectors. I suspect this is still true for most practical purposes:

That is exactly the Point. There is no way possible with Apple Music (except that heated discussion with @dabassgoesboomboom here).

Thank you both; that’s important to know.

So dabass managed to show that Airplay supports bit-perfect, hi-res playback between iOS and macOS Monterey. There’s not a great choice of streamers running macOS though unless you want to dedicate a Mac Mini to the task…

That is what he claims. I think, it does not work.
If we really want to know it, someone familliar with Wireshark has to analyze the network stream of AirPlay while playing 192/24 with Apple Music. Myself does not know Wireshark enough to do this.
I’ll not get sucked in, the test looked pretty objective and he seems to know what he’s talking about. Bit-perfect transfer within Apple’s eco system seems an obvious first step for them, they do like to keep things “cosy”. I’ve not got the gear or the interest to try it myself, I’m not really an Apple user, but that’s the acid test…

It would be so fantastic, if it really works. However please read my added remark about Wireshark
If you are going to claim wireshark is required then we’d expect you to back that up with knowledge of why and some evidence showing it proves your point.
So far only dabass has shown actual evidence with reasoning. If you believe it doesn’t work then do your own tests and prove otherwise. If you can’t, then don’t claim he’s wrong with zero evidence to back that claim.
No more idle talk, do some tests and show your results.

Waiting for his answer to my question which player he did use for his setup. He claims something, noone else did claim anywhere else.
He already detailed everything he used and did.
Go do some tests to back up your claim, otherwise let’s move on because he’s already shown evidence, you haven’t.

Ok, which player did he use? I could not find this sorry.
Go back and read his post if you want to understand what he used and how he did it.
If you didn’t read what he showed and haven’t done any tests why are you saying he’s wrong ?

Just did it again and again and again. „playing via Airplay“ no mentioning of used player there. He claims something. Something noone else on this little planet claims. It should not be too hard to tell, which player he used. Obviously it is

This is Kindergarten now. Obviously you are not imterested in proving his claim.

He proved it worked, you have claimed it doesn’t with literally zero evidence.
You are the one that needs to disprove it and your strongest argument so far is “You’re wrong”, you are the child.

he proved to far nothing, when he does not provide the details of his setup.
All the details, including pictures, are provided in this thread.
