    aptX Adaptive / aptX Lossless USB Transmitters

    Yeah not getting my hopes up for LC3+ but even LC3 would already be great. I have the KB9P where I can set up low latency mode with the BT Assistant software, but it did not change anything for the QC Ultra. It also did not change anything for the ML 5909 btw - I think these headphones are...

    aptX Adaptive / aptX Lossless USB Transmitters

    But this often does not work for Live TV or if you use a BT transmitter externally connected, the delay reporting does not reach the TV at all. And in a PC setting with BT dongles, it also does not work in my experience. Anything above ~50ms when gaming sounds like there is something off to me...

    aptX Adaptive / aptX Lossless USB Transmitters

    Check this: https://www.head-fi.org/threads/aptx-adaptive-aptx-lossless-usb-transmitters.961856/page-110#post-17763673 Gaming, Live TV (lip-sync, action movies, etc..), live sync with multiple devices (not possible if all devices have latency ranges +-100ms, but might be possible with <20ms and...

    aptX Adaptive / aptX Lossless USB Transmitters

    So I received the Bose QuietComfort Ultra headphones and as expected, they do not support LE audio as of now. Also, they do support aptx adaptive but the latency is disappointing since they don't seem to support the low latency mode of aptx adaptive. The best latency I got out of the QC Ultras...

    aptX Adaptive / aptX Lossless USB Transmitters

    Oh maybe my last sentence wasnt so clear: I measured 30ms between LC3 and LC3+ (ULL). So, at least with this Creative headset, the latency of "normal" LE audio seems to be 50-60 ms which is pretty nice :) Lip-sync should be no problem with such a latency, gaming might be where you would switch...

    aptX Adaptive / aptX Lossless USB Transmitters

    My unit does not have this bug it seems. I also cannot hear a significant difference between ULL and LC3. Also, I rechecked the latency stuff and it seems my setup introduced around a 20ms latency. So all my measurements are probably 20ms inflated which seems in tune with their claimed latency...

    aptX Adaptive / aptX Lossless USB Transmitters

    So in comparison to aptx-LL the ULL (LC3+) codeck has been performing way better for me (less cracking/distortion sounds, better range). I cannot really talk about sound quality since I also had only the Creative Zen Hybrid Pro headphone to test and it really is not the best in sound quality...

    aptX Adaptive / aptX Lossless USB Transmitters

    Interesting, I wonder if they also do an MMX 300 wireless version with LC3 codec.. So I tested the latency of the Zen Hybrid Pro Classic and sadly it's around the same ~40-50ms like aptx LL (which is still very good but it's not the 20ms they advertise). I'm wondering if my setup adds latency...

    aptX Adaptive / aptX Lossless USB Transmitters

    So I just unpacked the Creative Zen Hybrid Pro Classics. And they are very decent, average ANC, average build quality, average comfort (ear cups too small sadly but otherwise very light), sound seems average as well. But for the price and with the included BT-L3 dongle they seem like a really...

    aptX Adaptive / aptX Lossless USB Transmitters

    My latency checking method has evolved a bit. I used to just watch the audio latency Youtube test video(s), but now I actually use Voicemeeter Potato and output my audio signal to 2 outputs: one wired 0-latency reference speaker and the (wireless) device I want to test. Then I listen to audio...

    aptX Adaptive / aptX Lossless USB Transmitters

    Yeah, the official page, as is usual with BT headphones, is again very lacking in specifics, I have the info from these links: https://www.cnet.com/tech/mobile/bose-quietcomfort-ultra-headphones-quietcomfort-ultra-earbuds-hands-on/ Of course, it may not be supported right away, so maybe the...

    aptX Adaptive / aptX Lossless USB Transmitters

    Seems like I was wrong, there is hope for low latency over Bluetooth in 2023! Just ordered the new QuietComfort Ultra (BT LE Audio Ready) and the Creative Zen Hybrid Pro Classic (mainly for the BT-L3 adapter). Exciting times, will report back with latency reports. I also found this article...

    Mark Levinson № 5909 headphone

    I agree, the sound quality is phenomenal with these headphones, although the bass is too much for me. I need to set them to the attenuated bass profile so that they are enjoyable. But oh my god, what is going on with the build quality of these??? The headband seems to be only holding in place by...

    aptX Adaptive / aptX Lossless USB Transmitters

    So, I just measured the latency of the KB9P dongle and for aptx LL it has ~50ms to FiiO BTR3. Now I tested aptx adaptive to a Mark Levinson 5909 and it does not make a difference whether its in gaming mode or not, it always has a latency of ~115 ms. Quite the disappointment considering they...

    AKG's new K872?

    hey guys, I got the K872 and also wasn't really happy with the tuning. So I removed the foam rings and I liked them a little better but still was not satisfied. By going through the frequency specturm, I noticed some very bad peaks at ~1.8khz, ~2.9khz and 4.8khz. For me, especially the peak at...

    Earbuds Round-Up

    Oh wow, yeah I have never heard/read about this from somebody else but at least for my pair, it is a very noticeable issue. I'm wondering if the other guys simply just dont use the ST-10 for content with lots of low-bass (i.e. sub 50/40hz).

    Earbuds Round-Up

    So, I ordered the Smabat M1 and they just arrived - I got to say they are too light on the bass for my taste, making them pretty bright. Mids and highs seem great but the lacking bass really takes the joy out of them for me (i.e. compared to the HE-150 Pro which I really love, small and with...

    Sennheiser introduces the Momentum 3

    I too bought the new Momentum and I agree with the comfort issue, clamp force is simply a little too high. Currently I'm trying to tone down the clamp force by bending the metal over night. Sound wise, I managed to tone down the bass and up the highs with the included EQ app so now they sound...
