I am looking to get hold of a music player which can transmit either aptx hd or LDAC (or both!). I have been looking at Astell & Kern players as well as FiiO. (Are there any other makes out there i should be considering?)

So far i have looked at FiiO M11 Pro, FiiO M15, and Astell & Kern SR25 A&Norma (which i believe is the only one in their lineup to support wireless headphones?)

I am open to other suggestions (including looking at mobile phones which potentially offer a better ux)

any and all suggestions welcome!

FiiO M6 also supports it like mine

I really don't see that there's any reason to get a DAP when you're just gonna be running Bluetooth. You're not gonna be using the actual components that make a DAP superior over a phone. Even cheap phones have LDAC and AptX HD these days and you're probably gonna have a snappier, more polished product in terms of UX
