Ok I think I found the clunky solution: Lightning to HDMI to de-embedder with optical out. Gross.

while you guys are sucking each other's ding-dongs, could one of you be bothered to tell me if I'm on the right track with the HDMI > de-embedder solution?

Just get that. I would say the less connections and adaptions the better. That is made for it so plug in and connect and get after it.

Trag, how are you playing your HD music files? Are they your own or are you streaming from an HD service?

Do you have a smart tv where you can download amazon music?

That might be the best bet?

I'm assuming your receiver doesn't have an HDMI port.

Got a pair of FiiO FD1 earbuds to pair with the M7 and holy moly, have I been listening to music like a caveman for the last few years or what. For $60 they sound incredible.
