Shure SRH1540 Review
Does adding the sheepskin pads drastically reduce sound leakage? The alcantaras are great but I feel a little conscious since the sound leaks a little, even at a moderate volume (though I'm not saying my hearing is the best :)- rkar

Recommendations for the Audio Technica ATH-BT05 bluetooth adapter?
Thank you. That helps a lot. I'll wait a little and do some more research in the mean time. The Fiio BTR-1 was so promising but the lack of AAC was the deal breaker for me since I'm in iOS land.- rkar

Recommendations for the Audio Technica ATH-BT05 bluetooth adapter?
Thank you - wanted to know about the codec :) Do you recommend the Astell & Kern XB10 by any chance? Seems like it supports the AAC codec and is supposed to have a decent DAC + Amp?- rkar

FiiO’s Upgraded Bluetooth Amplifier BTR1K: Qualcomm QCC 3005 BT chip, BT 5.0 and aptX /aptX LL/AAC supported, RGB light, NFC pairing, Type C and USB DAC
Think of it this way: [iPhone/iPad has audio file in AAC] ==> <sends file over wireless> ==> [bluetooth digital codecs supported SBC/APTx/AAC] --> <convert Digital file to analog> ==> Headphones So if the bluetooth receiver (BTR1 in this case) doesn't support AAC, the iOS device will re-encode...- rkar

Hmm I tried several times, including a full reset. How are you checking AAC btw? I'm looking at the console log on a Mac: https://www.head-fi.org/threads/howto-find-which-codec-is-used-between-ios-device-and-bluetooth-headphones.835289/)- rkar

I'm having the same problem - use Apple music and it's still using SBC (instead of AAC). Confirmed using the guide here: https://www.head-fi.org/threads/howto-find-which-codec-is-used-between-ios-device-and-bluetooth-headphones.835289/) How are you getting AAC to work?- rkar
