 🙏 omg, thank you ~so~ much.  the article perfectly explains what i was wondering about. 

For anyone else reading this:

the new apple pods are just over the threshold to be considered lossless.

“Lossless audio is always presented in the CD-quality resolution of 16-bit/44.1kHz or better and may go all the way up to 24-bit/192kHz.” 
 lol, oops…but i guess only when paired with the 1 million dollar goggles.

 Article is old 
 dear jacks,

let’s be clear.  as i know now from our sources on nostr and the internet at large, it seems that wireless lossless audio is pretty much still ~not possible~
apple waz dropping a meaningless teaser❗️😑 
 jaaaaack!  the world ~needs~ lossless on wireless.  please do something.

HIGH  p r i o r i t y ‼️

🥹🙏🧡 
 you are pathetic and disgusting. 
 i say this as a lifelong audiophile. 

( as opposed to a wannabe embarrassment like you ) 
 talking about sound quality in the context of apple earbuds is like talking about nutrition in the context of eating your own diarrhea ...

please just shut your dumbfuck mouth and never open it again. 
 lolololol 
 Actually they do support the Lossless Audio, except it’s limited for the Vision Pro only. https://image.nostr.build/b5b6adf5e122470930578a1380572c1410bc8968606fe8fceb335ded53399c24.jpg  
 ty🙏 & yeah 😔, i realized later after learning about the bits/kHz spec and reading that more carefully, but the goggles make the pods’ losslessness pointless to me, lol 🥲 
 so what happens if the audio is lossless? it just plays the standard version and you can't really tell either way, right? 
 i think something like that…

sound quality was ~significantly~ better with my old wired headphones when listening to high “resolution” audio files, cd’s…

now, my bluetooth headphones, even though it’s a comp in terms of price-point, just are not at all capable of delivering the quality of sound i heard before with wired. 
 lossless was a thing 20 years ago.  what are you a fucking boomer ? 
 I think they make a mistake with bluetooth here
