Possible to use Apt-X audio codec on Nexus S? - Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I am wondering if there is a custom rom or app that will let me use the high quality bluetooth audio streaming codec Apt-X? Want to use it with a new Samsung HS3000 bluetooth I just bought...

[Q] Audio streaming App?

I want my Eris to stream audio (out). Is there an audio streaming App that anyone has developed or is being developed? I saw one in the market that does video and audio but I only need audio.

[Q] Bluetooth with AAC encoding?

So I just found out (disappointingly) that the N5 does not support apt-X for A2DP, but I was wondering if any knew if it supported AAC? If I have a bluetooth receiver that supports AAC (Kinivo BTC450), will I be able to stream an AAC-encoded file directly to the device without encoding it to SBC? And if so, what kind of app would I use for that?
My apologies if any of my terminology is wrong, I'm pretty new to wireless audio.

Shield and HD Audio

I've been trying to find out what the DAC is in the Shield Tablet and if it will support high resolution audio but there is nothing on Nvidia's site and any audio related search just goes on about the speakers.
I'm going to load up some 192KHz/24bit FLAC files and see how it goes. Looks like it supports most formats but there is no mention anywhere of high resolution audio support. I hope if does not down sample.
Anyone have any experience?

In same position, not much info to find about the DAC. My main usage plan is as car dashboard tablet, so i don't want to go all audiophile and guess i have to see how it will play out. Else i will probably just end up investing in a proper HDMI de-embedder.
It would however be nice to know just a little about the DAC.
It won't support high-res audio because Android doesn't, it'll resample everything to 48Khz, regardless of the capability of the DAC. The only exceptions are devices where the manufacturer has added support for it, from memory only LG and Samsung to date. If you want HD audio get a USB DAC and use USB Audio Player PRO (UAPP). I use my Dragonfly 1.2 with my Note 4 and Shield Tablet, it'll do high-res via UAPP (or Hiby or Onkyo music players, I prefer UAPP). Personally I have no need for HD audio, but the external DAC and amp runs rings around the audio quality and amplifier grunt in tablets and phones.
