> Plus the part about the lightning protocol makes no sense whatsoever. Yes it does, unless the port has an analog audio channel It's extra hardware that has to be on the dongle (at the expense of everything else) - for Audio I'm gessing it's USB https://www.chipworks.com/about-chipworks/overview/blog/syst... > Try blind testing 10 songs or so and see if you can figure out which one is played from the adapter Would be an interesting test, I would begin by checking the max volume allowed |

Then you'd have an internal DAC. Apple is extremely greedy with space, but a DAC/amp isn't large. The dongle has more available space. The sound is digital before being converted either way, the "lighting protocol" won't hurt the quality unless they lossily compress, which I doubt.
