I recently started listening to Apple Music after they announced that they were going to begin broadcasting much/most of their music Library in “Hi-Res” or “Lossless”, not to mention select titles in “Dolby Atmos”.
How are you listening to it?
After doing a bit of research, I learned that many of Apple’s own products were actually incapable of allowing the user to listen at these higher resolutions due to limitations of their technology. I ended up getting the latest AppleTV 4k+ HDR and hooking it up directly to my HT Receiver via HDMI as that was one of the best ways to listen at the higher resolutions. It is limited somewhat, but I am enjoying listening to Pink Floyd’s stuff that was released quietly this past week in “Hi-Res” quality.
If you are using some of their older gear or via AirPods, you aren’t listening it at the higher resolutions.
Hope Apple resolves this issue quickly with their newest hardware or (if possible) through Firmware updates.
