Have you done any blind listening tests? I'm having a hard time believing this, though it depends on the bitrate of the AAC.

I do blind tests multiple times a day.

On cellular on my iPad/iPhone I stream at AAC and then high-res lossless on WiFi.

When the stream switches the improvement in clarity and sound stage is very apparent.

That's doesn't sound blind, if you don't have a very fancy setup that can switch to the lossless stream without any interruptions.

I simply have to press stop and start (which you can do many different ways) and the stream will switch.

Pretty fancy I know.

That's not blind.
