Re: From aptX to AAC: What You Need to Know About Bluetooth Audio

friarminor — Wed, 23 Sep 2020 04:56:50 -0000

After months of listens, I found that BT receiver to DACS connected to the amp matter more than the one connected to the bluetooth transmitter. Even without using DAC on transmitter, stream seems just as good as having DACS on both ends using AptX HD BT. Thanks and keep safe!

Been looking to find a post about review of AptX HD but couldn't really find one. Anyway, here's my plan: Bought 2 AptX HD devices. Bypassed Macbook bluetooth, inserted Dragonfly Red and transmitted via AptX HD device. The other used as receiver with optical out, connect to a DAC (Topping E30) then Amp. Wondering which DAC though has more impact? Transmitter or Receiver?

Timeless. This is my last free article for this month as I can't afford a subscription. But articles such as this is what makes HBR valuable not just for managers but for college grads and regular employees who wish to help and contribute beyond what is required for the success of their organizations. Thanks.

Irony is that the perpetrators and cronies would fill the seats if ever this show gets staged here in the Philippines [and can actually still manage to smile and laugh]. Incumbent politicians would now entertain the idea that they might get a musical about them in the future, too. This would be a red-carpet event indeed. Red with the blood of the murdered innocents, patriots and the poor who slowly bleed while dancing to the beat of the 'palabas' that is the hallucinogen to their miserable lives.

We've always known that play brings out creativity in an individual. What we cannot understand is why it is not encouraged for groups and/or adults.

The simplest definition you can find, the better. Otherwise, it will all sound like vendor marketing hype or 'Skynet', if FUD (fear, uncertainty and doubt) is your thing.

The reason why Web/Enterprise 2.0 solutions work in the private sector is because there is a universal metric; Profit. - Brian

Cynical but just thinking about it, in government, the metric seems to be 'to remain in perpetuity'.

Hmmm, i find that Twitter gives out a signal to the world about your own presence in what really is quite a simple, frictionless way. Then everything else comes along with it like the power to contribute, connect, be informed and a kind of easily reviewable log of your own life as well - but with reference not just to time and event but to vis-a-vis set of people as well.

Great piece as always, Prof!

Ah, control. It's becoming cumbersome telling companies about it. But, I definitely have no problem lauding the efforts of those who try their darn best to rectify such error.

Auto-follow? And I thought it was their revenue model....

I'm not into social media for the numbers game but for the interesting banter and meaningful conversations. It also helps that there are people who are good-intentioned and well-meaning, too while I catch up on providing some form of value to the websphere, myself.

Oh and Great Post! [White Album and Revolver are great, too]

Well, I'd say it better than losing the water supply. Trust me because we're used to all kinds of outages you can think of. A mobile phone car charger can sure be valuable, too!
