In Apple store, a link to an expensive, but maybe good sounding Audeze EL-8 Titanium headphones with both lightning/dac in the cable. Also have standard 3.5mm jack. http://www.apple.com/shop/product/HJLS2VC/A/audeze-el-8-titanium-closed-back-headphones
Take care 18. jan. 2016 kl. 14:58 skrev Christopher-Mark Gilland <clgillan...@gmail.com>: Ray, You! are also failing to see something though. You're point is valid and well taken, don't get me wrong here, but what about those who don't have headphones with a lightning connecter. Or what about those like myself who use both Apple, and! Android products? Are we gonna be left in the cold having to buy two different pares of headphones, and lug both them around with us? Surely that seems absurd. Before you say, there are adapters probably being made, take it from a guy who's a certified engineer. If you take an 8th inch plug, and pop a lightning adapter on it, the bottom line is the signal is traveling down the line from the lightning, to the 3.5M plug, down the headphone cord, and to your earpieces. The point being, that signal might have started as digital, giving you the new to come high resolution, but ultimately by the time it hits your ears, it will have been carried down the line to your stereo 3.5M jack in the adapter, and at that point, your headphones won't know what to do with that signal. It would most likely be converted to an annalog signal. Therefore, the only way you'd truly get that benefit is no adapter. Plug directly in, which means new headphones for us, which means more marketting by Apple, and more money for Apple. I'm just sayin'.

You are overlooking an obvious benefit; and it's not just more money for Apple: rather it's this. The plain fact is that it's better to lose the headphone jack because you can get much better audio out of the lightning connecter than you can out of the 3.5MM jack. With the use of the lightning connecter, you can take advantage of the high resolution audio format which Apple is said to be roling out soon. Also, there are other advantages besides. Don't fall for this emotional knee-jerk nonsense. !
