AIFF Files into Apple Music on my iPhone 11 Pro Max

I ripped a ton of CD's into AIFF format into Apple Music on my Mac. (they're stored in an external drive).


Want to put a bunch of them on my phone as I have plenty of storage, and will be riding the subways in NYC before too long. Using a Dragonfly Cobalt, so high-quality files will be good!


How do I get the AAC files off my phone, and the AIFF files onto it?


Thank you.

Delete the AAC songs from your iPhone:

Delete music, movies, and TV shows from your device - Apple Support

Then sync the AIFF files from your Mac to your iPhone:

Sync your iPhone, iPad, or iPod using your computer - Apple Support

You may want to to this with only one or two songs first to make sure it works before deleting the entire library off your iPhone.
