If you wish to keep your iPhone but want to listen to the music in far better quality than what Apple’s Headphone output gives then the pair of headphones reviewed here may be exactly what you’ve been after, even I’m tempted to get a pair though I don’t use the iPhone for much these days but there’s no doubt about the convenience these cans would offer.
The cans use the Lightning connector of your iPhone/iPad/iPod so the music is digitally transferred to DAC’S in the cans themselves. According to the review Philips have brought us the first set of headphones with a Lightning connector and more will follow I’m sure. http://www.techradar.com/au/reviews/audio-visual/hi-fi-and-audio/headphones/philips-fidelio-m2l-1292276/review ********** Those of a positive and enquiring frame of mind will leave the rest of the halfwits in this world behind.
