iPad vs Eversolo vs Mac mini for Apple Lossless Music
I tried an iPad, Eversolo DMP-A6 and a Mac mini to stream Apple Lossless Music to my Stereo and there was one clear winner for me.
I now have three ways to play Apple Music on my stereo:
iPad to DAC via USB (100% lossless, 44.1, 96 & 192 kHz) Cost = 'free' because I already had an unused iPad.
Apple AirPlay 1 from my iPhone to an Apple AirPort Express to DAC via Optical (Mostly lossless at 44.1kHz) Cost = $15 to buy AirPort Express model A1264 on eBay.
Apple Airplay 2 from my iPhone to Marantz CD50n (not lossless). Cost = Free.
You can tell if your iPhone is connecting using the AirPlay 1 or AirPlay 2 protocol by the check mark next to the connected device when you enable AirPlay on your phone. AirPlay 1 has a simple check mark, AirPlay 2 has a check mark with a circle around it.
