With Apple ditching it 3.5 mm jack, Apple snobs across the world, including myself, are wondering how to salvage our beloved headphones? What will be the fate of our music? Will I have to complete a 40-minute New York City commute in utter silence? Well, no because Apple is now selling a Lightning jack 3.5 mm adapter.

So, there you have it. The answer to your iPhone 7 and music woes. But for those of you still pondering whether a complete conversion to a Lightning jack was necessary by Apple Inc. I’ve got a spiel for you.
This monumental switch may not be necessary, but it does have a world of benefits. The Lightning jack is more than a port to play your music, it acts as a digital-to-analog converter. The iPhone is in fact already built with an internal DAC and amp in place (Cirrus Logic DAC, 24-bit/96kHz). However, the small housing is limiting, handling 24-bit/48kHz. The addition of the Lightning jack will change that and supply you with better sounding audio, arguably hi-res!
I guess I’m sold. How about you? Let us know your thoughts in the comments section below. You can also snag your own Lightning jack 3.5 mm adapter here.
