Regardless of who you look at (Kef / Marantz / NAIM / Primare / Cambridge Audio / Yamaha etc), Apple rather push them to use AirPlay 2 ... so no one even get's their HiRes lossless. I think Eversolo is one of the few that can? I've heard mixed results on Sonos / Amazon. So to me, it's fantastic they offer it - but I don't think many people can use it, even if they want use it. It's a bit cumbersome to get working and the sad thing is that these manufacturers listed above want to use it . I know you do get a few people that plug their phone into a DAC in the front of the room - but then they either put on a playlist or stand up between tracks to control the music. Others have a laptop sitting next to them for control. And then I've heard that iMacs etc can't switch resolution automiatcally ?And that sometimes AirPlay changes lossless to lossy?Is subscribe to Apple Music - but it doesn't seem the service that so many told me about when you look a bit further into it .</blockquote>
