Hi everyone, Yesterday, I wrote about how my 2020 was in terms of audio gear. Today, I’ll be talking about my initial purchases and what’s to come over the next few days and weeks. I’m always looking to try new digital audio players and DACs mainly, followed by some headphones, usually from KZ. This year, I’m starting it with new products from Hiby, Hidizs, and Fiio. Let’s see the products below. Hiby R2 The Hiby R2 is Hiby’s newest ultra-portable…
Hi everyone, Last year was a great one when it came to acquiring new Audio Gear. In this post, I’ll talk about my acquisitions with a bit of overview for each product. Digital Audio Players In 2020, I got the FiiO M5, the Shanling Q1, the Hiby R3 Pro Saber, and the Hidizs AP80 Pro. These 4 companies do great products, so I went ahead and ordered their newest products. I had the Shanling Q1 already preordered on Kickstarter. FiiO…
Hi everyone, Today, I’ll show you the Avantree DG80 Bluetooth USB Audio Transmitter: This is a Bluetooth adapter that works as a PC audio card. It transmits audio via Bluetooth using the SBC, FastStream, aptX, or aptX Low Latency codec, depending on which codecc your headphone or adapter supports. Having the aptX codec provides us with a better audio experience. The aptX Low Latency codec allows us to watch movies and videos without any audio delay. Most Bluetooth receivers today…
Hi everyone, Today, I’ll be reviewing the TRN BT20 Bluetooth adapter for 2-pin In-Ear Monitors (IEM): The TRN BT20 is a Bluetooth 5.0 adapter that is available in 3 different versions: The version I purchased is the 2-pin 0.78mm for my KZ ZS7 IEM’s. The adapter syncs together to bring you stereo sound. It uses a Realtek Bluetooth 5.0 SoC that while it is not specified which specific chipset it’s being used, I suspect it may be using the Realtek…
Hi everyone, In this post, I’ll show you a video of me unboxing the PLUB, which is a Bluetooth Headphone Adapter. The Bluetooth adapter features Qualcomm aptX audio codec, so the audio quality is really good compared to the plain old SBC. The way you use this is simply by connecting a headphone/earphone to it. The adapter also features no buttons except for the Reset one and that’s it. No power up, volume, or multi-function buttons are there. So you…
Hi everyone, Today, I’ll talk about the new batch of the Avantree Clipper Pro: The Avantree Clipper Pro is an aptX Low Latency-enabled Bluetooth adapter that turns wired headphones into wireless bluetooth. As a tester of Avantree, I get products from the company to evaluate and give feedback, and this time, they kindly sent me this revision, 17F1. New to this batch is new voice notifications, replacing the power on, pairing, and power off beeps and the volume buttons no…
The Avantree Clipper Pro is a Bluetooth adapter where you connect your headphones to it to turn them into Bluetooth. It is an amazing adapter because there are still some really good headphones that are only available wired, or they also have Bluetooth connectivity but lacks the aptX audio codec which this Bluetooth adapter has. It has aptX and aptX Low Latency codecs, so when watching videos, as long as the device you’re using also supports the aptX Low Latency…
