most of my song collection are in 384KHz and i love the detail or the song playing on my laptop compare to lower KHz.
but things is most phone out there only support 24-bit/192kHz unless option for flagship model which is more expensive.

now the things is how will my song(384KHz) played in my phone that only support 192KHz?
anyone audiophile expert know or you all prefer dedicated audio player?

Drillz

ur song will downscale to watever ur phone can support, if wan audio quality go dap and quality iem or headphone

make no mistake, any phone can process 384khz but the speaker cannot output 384khz only….

So get a good headset that can output 384khz

get LG V series

Isn't human hearing range only 20Hz to 20kHz?
You mean kbps?

This solves my problem: Fiio BTR5
Don't have to worry if the phone doesn't have 3.5mm plug. This unit even supports balanced out with 2.5mm TRRS.

Unless you get Bluetooth earbuds, then that's another story altogether.

Then CD is pointless since they are 44.1kHz ?

thanks, now i know that audio spec is for phone speaker actually.


Yes, should kbps actually

thanks, thats is like rm500+ for a portable amp
any other option like mp3 player?

fiio m3 pro, fiio m6, hidizs ap80

does it really make a big difference between 128 and 384?

it really huge difference between 128kbps compare to 320kbps especially some detail instrument background that cannot be heard from 128kbps

320kbps? mp3?

I didn't suggest MP3 player because it's a standalone device. If you are comfortable with another device, perhaps there are some cheaper alternatives which I may not really surveyed. Nevertheless, you may want to test it out first to hear if you like the particular sound. I tried the Shanling Bluetooth receiver and didn't like the sound much. Fiio suits my preference in that price bracket, and it's a Dac-Amp combo with bluetooth capability so it fits my requirement.

thanks, really good stuff with additional function like recording and calculator

yes. i know other format better than .mp3
prefer mp3 format as it widely compatible.

Just buy more expensive phone then. No need to carry extra device.

AFAIK, 44.1kHz is already x2. Meaning if you divide by 2 = 22.05kHz which is slightly beyond the human hearing range. Anything above cannot be heard unless you are a dog or something.

There is no such thing as 384kHz music

I use PowerAmp app on my phone. It plays 1000+ kbps music.



I doubt buying all those fancy gadgets will make it sound any better.
Why not try this blind test before buying?

If you cannot tell the difference, then just skip it.

128kbps and 320kbps can tell if you use a good headphone.
If you use crap, you get crap anyway.

Anything beyond 320kbps is likely just placebo unless you have really good ears or a musician.
I have a music that's 24 bit, 48kHZ 1747 kbps flac. There's probably a very very small difference but I doubt the difference is worth the larger music file.

Video of a blind test if you're interested.

then why not use lossless compression like flac?

most song collection is on 384khz?
i guess ts only listening to mastered classic music as most hires source out there is 24bit 48khz/96/192khz.

also those hi-res certification is kinda bullshit.

my meizu phone audio quality is miles ahead better than my poco f2 which had hi-res certification, reality is you still need decent amp to produced good audio, doesnt matter how clean your dac shown in the computer reading.
also i will take sony s-master with 80db dynamic range anyday vs most phone with >96db dynamic range reading.
