Fun fact #2 - you can turn on "lossless" on your iPhone, and it'll chew through ten times the bandwidth, but you'll not get lossless via your Bluetooth headphones, so there's little point.
But I *do*, I think, hear the difference via the DAC in my Focusrite Scarlett and my wired headphones on the Mac. It's around 800-900kbps apparently, rather than the 256kbps AAC.
