is there a way to get bit prefect output from amazon music ?

You'll need a streamer like the Wiim or Bluesound node.

Do you mean phone will stream Amazon music to streamer ? Is the amazon music app outputs bit perfect music?

Maybe on Android 14

I don't use amazon music, but if you had the app on your mobile, wouldn't it be bit perfect via usb-c cable?

Just checked at linsoul. The MFi09S is the priciest of the 3 Nyx series lightning cables. I spent 79 at Aliexpress for 50cm MFi09S

The original Nyx MFi09S series used a 1st generation silver shielded wire which used a relatively complex structure of separate shielding for its power supply and data transmission. This greatly helped to reduce noise in devices whose power supplies were susceptible to interference.

The new version 2 Nyx 07 series uses the 2nd generation of silver shielded wire which distributes the power supply and data wires at equal intervals. It also uses imported insulation material with an adjusted-density shielding net with black and white spacing along with an outer insulation layer in accordance with impedance matching. Compared to the 1st gen, the newer 2.0 wire is smaller and more compact.

Android has a bit limit, not sure you can really here the difference though, I use UAPP and Qobuz which bypassed Andoid , it doesn't have Amazon

That's the point. Uapp bypasses the Android os which by default upsamples. So the only option if uapp has the Amazon login option in future.

I already use qobuz in uapp but Amazon has better selection of bollywood songs imo.

For Amazon it really depends on your source. Some android DAPs have the ability to bypass SRC over USB. Also, Apple devices work well with external DACs at proper bitrates.

Yeah tbh it's hard to tell the difference

No, Amazon will only output bit perfect when using a separate Amazon music compatible streamer like the 2 I mentioned earlier. If you’re looking to stream bit perfect from your phone, try Apple Music.

Chibs is correct. Output from an iOS device is (unfortunately not terribly successfully) upscaled by the AM app to the maximum your connected DAC can handle so will not be bit perfect. Best to use a WiiM device where it will be bit perfect and the music can either be controlled by the WiiM app or, somewhat preferably, by the AM app itself.

I want to listen my HD650 and Atrium portable. Is there a benefit to upgrade from Mojo2 to Hugo2? I looked into specs and they look almost the same:
Hugo2: 94 mW 300 ohms
Mojo2: 90 mW 300 ohms

I didn't find Hugo 2 a significant upgrade to Mojo 2. It has better detail, but it's not 4x better. Maybe 15% using it as a headphone dac/amp. Mojo 2 drives my DCA Stealth better than the Hugo 2. I'm about max volume on Hugo 2. Either go Hugo TT or wait for Hugo 3 would be my suggestion.

I'm OK wit SQ on Mojo2. I only worry about if Hugo2 has more power for HD650.
