[QUOTE="user 1447, post: 1073198, member: 1447"] to make use of the new technology sadly you will need a new DAC that is compatible with the new technology - aptX-HD is not this new tech - it still compresses down to 576kbps whereas actual lossless is up to 1411kbps Bad news : each time these guys introduce a new format/codec you need a new device to decode/encode (transcode? as a combination) it - this is why your DAC states each one of those aptX codecs independently (you can potentially also have aptX LL Low Latency too) - Good news : you might find a small cheap device similar to things like the Fiio BTR3 that will probably add the new codecs so you can take advantage of them cheaply by connecting that to "a"new phone that contains the new codec because if you want your phone to do the transmitting the phone will need to also be capable of that new lossless codec - which will mean a highish end Qualcomm based processor required in the phone (not gonna be cheap at all IMHO) or a compatible bluetooth chip added into the phones circuitry if its not using a qualcomm processor all of this means that now when you buy your next phone you are waiting for two technologies to mature ie 5G and also this new aptX lossless codec - so this is probably not going to help much in the short term [/QUOTE]
