Jriver apple music6/21/2023 Maybe I notice the difference? Without back-to-back comparison, which I haven’t spent time doing, it’s hard to say. To be completely honest, the audio quality difference using standard lossless over AAC is negligible. So I ended up buying the latest model Apple TV 4K (32gb) with the new remote. Just wondering if getting an Apple TV just for the audio upgrade given Apple’s lack of lossless/spatial support on its TV/PC apps would be worthwhile. Like I said, I already have Apple Music, so I’m not considering getting another service for cost reasons. I know I’d also get spatial audio support, which would be fun to play around with, but my system is only 5.2 and I don’t have huge expectations on that.Īnyways, just curious what everyone’s thoughts are. the standard quality playback I’m currently getting through the TV app? I’m pretty picky and sensitive to these type of changes, but even I am questioning whether this is worth doing… My family and I are happy with the Netflix and YouTube apps on our TV, so I don’t really think I would be using the Apple TV for anything besides audio, though if I’m going to get one, I wouldn’t get anything lower than the 4K version. I have an iPhone, but I don’t want to have to find a way to plug it into my AVR and would rather have something more permanent.įWIW, my home theater setup includes an Onkyo RZ-810 AVR connected to a MiniDSP DDRC-88A-BM using Dirac Live, so I believe my system is limited to 24bit/48khz (limitations of the MiniDSP/Dirac).ĭo you think there would be a noticeable difference getting Apple lossless working for the ~$150 cost of an Apple TV vs. However, I have no easy way to get lossless playback to my home theater/speaker system currently from the Apple Music service.Īt the moment, I listen to music on the system using the Apple Music app on my Samsung TV, which doesn’t support lossless audio, nor does iTunes on my PC. I’m already an Apple Music subscriber, so I already have access to its lossless audio.
