    Streaming is not apple music. Apple music is just one of many streaming platforms.

    Without knowing it, I believe what you found is that this device is actually a very poor CD transport. That record does not exceed 16-bit dynamic range and playing it on a very good CD transport or via a good lossless streaming source (like Qobuz) into the same very high-quality DAC the sound will be indistinguishable between one source or the other if everything is set up correctly.

      i feel like the difference here was bigger than i thought. My dad and I tried listening to Diana Krall “Let’s Face the Music and Dance” before from his sony cd player onto speakers and than compared it to apple music using a topping d90se, we still both preferred the apple music too, but difference was less obvious. But than again he is more familiar with diana krall as it’s his music and cd. But this test isn’t as consistent as we compared two different sources from a sony player to a topping dac

      @ryanhostudio you are mistaken from the pdf, it says, recordings done at higher bitrate and then downsampled seemed to lose their fidelity.
      There is this whole trend of NOS dacs that pretty much deal with bits similar to how CDs stored.
      16bit depth and 44.1khz is generally more than sufficient.
      So what matters is how the source content which is in higher bitrate is converted to the 16bit 44.1 khz format.
      If you just downsample the audio by dropping samples it's going to sound pathetic obviously.
      Because you maybe dropping bits that was essential, which would have better averaged out if the analogue copy of the audio was directly converted to 16bit 44.1 khz signal.

    can you use it as cd transport and hook it up to external dac/preamp?

    • @DNSWRLD
      @DNSWRLD 3 месяца назад

      Yes you can, in fact it is the preferred way of extraction of data. The preamplifier will need to have a Dac.

    • @or1on89
      @or1on89 5 дней назад

      Yeah, it has coaxial and SPDIF out...but honestly the DAC on-board is the flagship AKM, unless you have some very boutique DAC it's among the best you can get.

    If you use earphones, you can hear noise when the player goes to the next track on the CD. This is very annoying and not acceptable. If it didn't have this issue, I would have kept it.

    Spotify often sounds more musical than hi-res. Vinyl is very poor technically but can sound sublime. Musicality is something that can't be measured.

    • @ryanhostudio
      @ryanhostudio  2 месяца назад

      you can’t measure musicality because it’s a very subjective term, like you mentioned spotify is more musical than high res, but clearly high res has more information and data and it’s more resolving

    • @or1on89

      Spotify sounds really bad...I wonder what's the interpretation of musical when certain sentences get written because I struggle to understand what's musical about clipping sounds and artifacts...
