Q: What is the bits/sample/quality for iPhone audio to Denon stereo receiver via AirPlay?

Hi

 

I have an iPhone 6s running Spotify, at the moment, and I'm streaming via AirPlay to a Denon AVR-S710w stereo receiver that support Airplay internally.  Spotify is sending data at 384Kbps, is all that detail going through or is Airplay downsampling or compressing it?  What about Tidal, which streams to your phone/desktop at 1.3Mbps?  I can't find any pages giving the Airplay spec.

 

Thanks.
