Only audio files equivalent to CD quality are supported in the IOS 7 system

Apple is planning to add high-definition audio playback to the new iOS 8 operating system, and Apple may also release a new headset and redesigned lightning data cable to match the new technology.

The current iOS 7 system only supports playback equivalent to CD-quality audio files, such as Apple ALAC format with a higher sampling rate of audio files will require Third-party applications to play, but in iOS 8 this situation may change.

If you pay attention to the domestic smartphone market, you will find that to improve the quality of music play generally requires three aspects of support. The first is the hardware, which requires the HiFi chip to be implanted into the phone. Next is headphones, need to have a music to listen to the degree of delicacy or high noise reduction peripherals. Finally, the service requires a continuous stream of music libraries to provide lossless or high-definition playback files.

After the acquisition of Beats Electronics, Apple has been able to do it after two points. Even though the Beats headphones are not as professional as the brands of Bose, B&w and Shure, and there is some overlap between Beats Music and itunes, Apple's capital is already available for high-definition audio playback.

There are more than half a month WWDC 2014 will be held in San Francisco, when iOS 8 will be on the stage, may be on the same day we can download and experience this new set of high-definition audio playback capabilities.
