Default Anyone in an escalade or cadillac, how do you listen to music?

I'd like to know how you listen, or what format you use to listen to music.
Lately, when I hop in my Escalade, my iphone plays my old itunes library music through the bluetooth connection. I don't really tell it too, it just does it on accident all the time.
The sound quality of old itunes tracks are roughly 128-256 MP3 sized songs. They sound a lot better than satellite radio, but the low res eventually fatigues me, and all songs start to sound the same. Heavy MP3 compression played over a Bose stereo.

My itunes library is from music I liked about a decade ago, so it's a little weird, but since Sirius XM is way too compressed I listen anyway.

I tried plugging my AK DAP in, but my CUE/infotainment will only reconize CD size flacs 16/44. Most of my stuff is higher res from online stores.

Sounds like all you need to do is re-rip your music to a higher resolution (like ALAC which is Apple lossless), save it to your phone and then play it in your truck.

2017 Escalade ESV Platinum

Something is goofy with the interface, CUE.

Sometimes I plug in my iPhone to get audible texts, then when I unplug it seems to auto connect the music which Tidal is an option, but I don’t like the auto sync - perhaps it can be turned off, just have put zero time in it as I’m on the phone more then I listen to music.

I’m not sure of audio size restrictions and honestly don’t pay attention.
