I’m getting into audio and audio quality, and I’m wondering what is the best way to utilize the XM5s for accurate, lossless audio. I have the XM5s, the packaged 3.5mm wire, the Apple Lightning to Headphone Jack (as reccomended online for its built in DAC) and an Iphone with Apple Music.

Is it true that plugged in, using all of these, creates the most accurate mix, sound, and quality with hi-res lossless that is possible with all of these tools?
