Sorry if this is a silly question.
I currently use a pioneer dap with USB audio player pro which allows hi res streaming from tidal.
It shows a bitrate ranging from 800kbs to 1300kbs usually with CD quality albums. It shows Upton 2200kbps streaming MQA tracks. I can also use my Samsung S9 to do the exact same thing feeding an external fiio dac. So is there any sonic advantage using a dap for this.?
