LDAC Sound Quality: Enables LDAC codec and the highest bit rate is used. Sound is sent in a higher quality; however, audio playback sometimes may become unstable

when the link quality is not good enough. If audio playback is unstable in this mode, select [LDAC Stable Connection (Auto)].

LDAC Stable Connection (Auto): Enables LDAC codec and the data transfer rate is automatically changed depending on the environment.

SBC Sound Quality: Enables SBC codec. A medium data rate is used. This provides a balance between sound quality and playback stability.

SBC Stable Connection (Auto): Enables SBC codec and the data transfer rate is automatically changed depending on the environment. This setting is recommended if the

connection is unstable.

Note

This function is only available when [Bluetooth Mode] is set to [Transmitter].

Hint

LDAC is an audio compression technology that enables transmission via BLUETOOTH of high-resolution audio sources, developed by Sony. Unlike the existing compression technology for

BLUETOOTH such as SBC, it processes high-resolution audio sources without down-converting them to low frequencies and low bit numbers (*1). In addition, by applying extremely efficient coding

and optimizing packet distribution, it is possible to transmit data volume that is about three times that of conventional technology (*2), realizing unprecedented high-quality BLUETOOTH wireless

transmission.

Excludes DSD format
