aptX explained

Standard Bluetooth codec (SBC) has extremely variable performance and its weaknesses are very apparent to music lovers. Common complaints include a reduction in high end clarity, muddiness or dullness on stringed content and its reduced Signal to Noise Ratio can cause listener fatigue.

Conversely, the aptX codec has a fixed performance standard to guarantee a consistently excellent quality when music data is transferred wirelessly over Bluetooth. With almost CD-quality reproduction on offer, you'll instantly experience significantly greater dynamics and infinitely more detail from your favourite music.

aptX is a standard that's been heavily adopted by broadcast, professional audio and cinema sectors and every public service and commercial radio broadcaster in Europe, Asia and North America uses aptX. In fact, over 24,000 DTS cinema theatres worldwide use aptX for 5.1 playback!

How does aptX perform Vs Standard Bluetooth?

Tonal reproduction: this graph shows the distortion when 32 pure equidistant tones fed into aptX (green) and SBC (red). As you can see, with SBC, far greater distortion occurs - particularly across the higher frequencies.

 

Upsampling for even better results

And if you own a DacMagic Plus or Stream Magic 6, proprietary ATF2 Upsampling technology means music shared wirelessly from your mobile device / computer is dramatically enhanced to give noticeably more detail, greater depth and dynamic range.
