Hello!
Just purchased these having researched that they support AptX-HD, as does my Pixel 3a. Got three months free Tidal HiFi subscription as well.
When I connected the headphones via Bluetooth and played music, I checked the developer options in the phone and could see that it was using the LDAC Codec with 96kHz sample rate and 32 bits/sample. This was born out by the Sony Headphone app which said is was receiving LDAC.
Now I thought the LDAC codec was only supported by Sony mobiles, so I wondered if I was getting the full benefit of the headphones?
I can (and have) forced the Pixel into using AptX-HD (48 kHz and 24 bit), and this is now displayed in the headphone app.
Tidal Masters are 96/24, and anything up to 9216 Kbps.
So should I use LDAC settings as they are shown in settings on my phone?
