Does Sonos now stream lossless from Apple Music?

Hi-res is also showing for me in Apple Music app via AirPlay (on this album I’ve got all options - lossless, hi-res and no badge at all on different tracks??)

Do we know if this is Lossless or Hi-Res Lossless if Available. I have Tried some Tracks from The Doors that on Apple Music in Hi-Res Lossless but only Show 

Lossless in Sonos App ?

Why do you want Hi Res on a Sonos System? I can’t even hear the difference between lossless and high res on my £3000 headphone and £7000 Dac. How on earth are you going to hear the difference?

Networks and hardware are getting faster: Content providers have to think of new innovative ways to use that increased bandwidth, so the network operators can sell more bandwidth, and the hardware manufacturers can sell more hardware, so the content providers can use more bandwidth…..

Is Apple Music Lossless limited to speaker age?  For example I have 2 Five’s in my office.  They play Lossless perfectly.  If I add in my stereo paired Play 1’s on the deck I lose lossless in both rooms.  Curious if the Play 1’s I have are just too old to run it.

Nobody can.  Hi-Res audio is pure snake oil.

I believe with apple, if you play within the sonos app it will be lossless, if that is what apple is providing. If you use airplay 2, it likely downsamples to 256 which is common for airplay 2. Sonos is now one of the few ways to actually easily play lossless with apple. Bluesound cannot. If you use wireless earbuds on your phone,  you cannot. If you use a DAC connected to your phone and wired headphones you can. 

Could you tell, if I would be able to stream lossless Apple Music via Sonos Port’s Digital output to my receiver? Thanks in advance. 

 You will not be able to hear the difference between 16/44 and 24/48 ( the Sonos limit ).  So if Apple is showing Lossless that’s all you need to see.  If there was a difference between 44 & 48 Sonos would not be able to resolve it.  You would need to spend considerably more to hear any difference if there was actually a difference.

 If you are concerned about “stair stepping” get a system that can play DSD.

Just switched over to Apple Music due to Google's price increase shenanigans. Very noticable difference in fidelity vs lossy sources if the speakers are up to it.

Ears picked it up immediately on a couple of my audio systems, including the Arc/Era300/sub group in my living room. Love how well Sonos handles music on their multimedia devices. A soundbar surround system just shouldn't do this well with music sources, but this one really does. It's so wrong but it's so right!
