IMHO the weak link may still be the iphone and dock. However, TIDAL's highest quality Flac is 1411 kbps - Lossless (16/44.1 khz). Dynamic range at that rate is about 96db and it shouldn't be compromised when passing through it. If you have better music on the iphone like DSD or files with bitrates were higher say 24/192khz you could be losing with the combination. However I'd advise you to try out the schitt using their 15-Day Satisfaction Guarantee and let us know since your ears would be the only ones to tell us..
