I believe Drop.com has a usb-c to 2 pin iem cable for 30 dollars. I can’t really comment on quality as I don’t own one.

I’ve tried it with the Windows 11 Android Subsystem but I found it uncomfortable to use and not the most efficient way to run it. I just use Cider on my desktop because I am usually playing games and listening to music. But if you wanted to listen to lossless on Windows, it’s a pretty good option. Miles better than iTunes or Web Apps/Cider. I just hope the native app comes out early next year because it is way better than emulating android app especially on laptops and lower end PCs

Good if you are using it from a phone. Windows will not have an app until next year (hopefully with lossless and not just a wrapper for the website) and Mac app so far has been hit or miss for me and no true exclusive mode. If you play music mainly on IPhone/iPad it’s plug and play with DACs and android seems to depend on phone manufacturers. I know my Samsung phone seems to do a good job at matching sample rate with Apple Music and DAC but I know some other phones are hard capped to 48kHz even though a DAC. My Fiio DAP also works with Apple Music really well.

Usually it doesn’t affect sound to a noticeable degree.
