When connected to your Dacmagic Plus this adaptor allows the DacMagic Plus to receive

BluetoothAudio (known as Bluetooth Advanced Audio Distribution Prole or A2DP). Contact your

dealer for details.

The BT100 supports Bluetooth A2DP using either the original SBC encoded form or the latest higher

quality apt-X encoded form.

SBC and apt-X refer to the encoding used over the wireless Bluetooth interface only and not the

format your music may be in, which can be any type that your phone/laptop or other playing device

supports.

Your playing device plays your les then re-encodes the playback before streaming it to the BT100

in one of these two formats.

Many phones and laptops now feature Bluetooth with A2DP. SBC should be supported by all such

devices (it is the madatory format for A2DP).

apt-X is optional, so check if your sending device supports it, if you wish to achieve the highest quality

audio transfer.

Note: The BT100 declares that it can handle both SBC and apt-X to the sending device which will

then use whichever version it supports.

What is apt-X?

apt-X is a high quality CODEC (CODer/DECoder) i.e. a way of compressing audio data so it can be

sent over a link such as Bluetooth then decompressed on the other side (if both devices support it).

If your Bluetooth audio source does not support apt-X, the BT100 will fall back to using the standard

SBC CODEC that is supported by all Bluetooth audio devices.
