I am looking for an aptX HD Bluetooth receiver. I'm interested in these three:

There are lots of reviews of the Audioengine B1 and Advance Paris is the reference brand of the the French manufacturer Advance Acoustic.

The DAC chips are as follows:

Audioengine B1: AKM AK4396
Advance Paris WTX1100: Cirrus Logic CS4344
xDuoo XQ-50 Pro: Sabre ES9018K2M

The alternative is to connect to my Tag McLaren DAC20 but I think that it would be probably better to use the internal DAC.

Prices are:

Audioengine B1: £169
Advance Paris WTX1100: £199
xDuoo XQ-50 Pro: £68

The xDuoo supports LDAC which I don't think the other two do. There is also the massive price difference. I already own a xDuoo XD05 Plus portable DAC / headphone amp for my laptop which I really like.

Which do you prefer?
