So I've managed to spend a little more time with the Codex. Today I paired the Codex, Std, and CFW1 to my NW-WM1Z - AptX where possible. The Codex and Std sound (to the best of my hearing!!) identical - meaning that aside from the AAC support of the Codex, it's the same as the Std - driver, earpads, etc. around my head. So for iPhone/iPad/iOS users, the Codex is the way to go to get the best out of wireless whereas for Android users, either Std or Codex would do.
One note though is that (and I think I wrote this before), for lossy AAC (e.g. 256k or lower), the difference between the Std SBC and Codex AAC seems less prominent. The difference is there however not as pronounced as with lossy AAC or FLAC (via Onkyo HF player)
So let me make sure I’m understanding this properly - when you compared the Crossfade II Wireless with the Codex, there is a sound difference, but when you compare the Codex with the regular M100, there is no difference? Or is it the other way around?
