My Universal Player, an OPPO-205, gets me all the quality that can be delivered from disc, download, or streaming service from its 2 eight channel ESS Sabre DACs. And, here's the bottom-line, I mostly listen to Apple Music from this player these days, since comparison and contrast with AAC downloads I've purchased from Apple Music to the same music downloaded from HDtracks at 24/192 in AIFF, ALAC, or from stereo hybrid SACDs confirms I cannot discern any divergence in the sound quality, in any manner sound quality could be distinguished. Now, having experimented with it all, I no longer buy hi-res stereo downloads. I still occasionally buy multi-channel downloads for the breadth and depth they deliver not found from stereo; but, that's only when I can not get the music on multi-channel SACD. This is because playing multi-channel downloads requires about sixteen actions to get gapless sound from speakers. At any rate, I'm totally satisfied with Apple Music for literally a multitude of reasons: sound quality, music selection, device integration, mobility, low subscription cost, remote control, and so much more. BTW, I can also enjoy Apple Music via Airport Express, which delivers 16/44.1 via optical S/PDIF to my 20 year old Pre-Pro. This means to the music does not quite have the fidelity I perceive I'm getting from my OPPO-205's DAC process.
