BluDento BLT-HD

Excellent, clear sound eminates from my Edifier powered speakers from this amazing BluDento BLT-HD device. That says it all for me.

Outstanding Product - Excellent Sound Quality ! Easy To Use. Highly Recommend It To Anyone!

This BluDento BLT-HD is simply outstanding in build quality, features, connectivity, and yes - sound. What great, gorgeous sound on my Sony ES home theater/music setup! Forget your own biases and your adopted "audiophile guru" friend's outdated biases against bluetooth audio quality. This product shatters those outdated preconceptions about bluetooth limitations when it comes to hi-fi sound. This amazing thing delivers beautifully dynamic, full range, detailed, and tonally accurate sound that I truly cannot distinguish from my very best CD recordings. I cannot speak to other Hi-Res sources, which are great, but I do not own or feel pressed to own right now. CD quality is fine with me for now, even though I believe from description and specs that the BluDento BLT-HD is able to exceed CD quality. When I listen to San Antonio's KPAC classical FM radio (yes, radio!), CD's, DVD's, BluRay's, or stream Pandora from my LG Stylo 2 Plus smartphone, silence is jet black with perfect stillness. Double Fortissimo is thunderous. No hissing or other clutter in the background. Treble is crystal clear, and not strident or harsh, at all. Bass is full and rich, as is the midrange. My system: Sony STR-ZA3000ES receiver; Sony SSCS5 bookshelf speaker × 4 (fronts and surrounds); SSCS8 center; SACS9 subwoofer; Sewell Silverback 12 AWG speaker wire; MediaBridge, KabelDirekt, Monoprice, and Amazon Basics interconnects; Sennheiser RS 160 RF wireless headphones (transmitter's input at its 3.5mm female plug received from Zone 2 RCA analog output jacks of Sony ES receiver); and this BluDento BLT-HD connected from its RCA analog output jacks to the Auxillary RCA analog input jacks of Sony ES receiver. With my described setup, my wife and I can currently do many things while relaxing in our recliners, such as watch television (as main zone) with sound muted, while also listening to Pandora or other streamed music/audio from one of our smartphones to the home theater speakers via this BluDento BLT-HD to the Sony ES Auxillary source setting; and also, simultaneously listening through the wireless Sennheiser headphones at any independent volume level to either of the above sources or different sources like FM stereo, CD's, or other sources connected to the Sony ES (as Zone 2). That is real flexibility and a multitasker's dream to simultaneously be free to either listen to and/or watch many different combinations of media from different sources on headphones and/or speakers. We could even add a third activity in the future, perhaps a separate bluetooth transmitter to other speakers or headphones anywhere in the house using the Sony ES's Zone 3 audio capability. Of course, one could simply just blissfully enjoy one thing at a time. The point is that this BluDento BLT-HD now enables us to fully use and enjoy the incredible flexibilities of our already amazing Sony ES/Sennheiser, etc. home theater/music system - with up to the same high level of beautiful sound quality - using bluetooth music/audio streaming sources, e.g. via smartphone or computer with bluetooth (up to 5.0 with AptX for highest quality). You may opt for any of the handful of fine competing devices currently out there, including the very capable but more expensive Audioengine B1, but I just truly doubt any of them will consistently and convincingly beat this BluDento in a proper side-by-side blind listening test, i.e. you will not at all regret getting this fine unit. I very highly recommend it. Update 12-31-2018: Still enjoying this very much with our new Amazon Music subscription started just before the Christmas holiday. We have played our favorite music for hours on end without any hiccups or glitches, at all. Sound quality is superb at lower volumes for nice background music, and just gets better and better when cranking the often underrated Sony ES way up high in the sky (for an occasional Zeppelin moment). Update 4-21-2019: Our BluDento BLT-HD has been on constantly for five months with heavy use, and is still working beautifully. Flawlessly. It is one of my very favorite additions to our home theater/music set up. I definitely plan to purchase another unit when we build our secondary HT/music set up. Update 8-28-2020: Still cranking out seriously beautiful music, internet radio station apps, etc. effortlessly and without any hitches. Friends have been getting plenty of fun and amazement trying it out with their smartphones and their various old school AV receivers that were just collecting dust. It sounds great with all of them. Still a flawless and brilliant work horse with nearly constant daily use. Update 12/21/2021: Gifted my great BLT-HD, Sennheiser HD600's, and Sch*** Audio stack as an early Christmas gift to a family member who has been without any good audio equipment for years. He loves them. It still works great. I plan to repurchase another one soon. On another review comment about not getting the HD data transmitted from a Moto G6 smartphone to this BLT-HD receiver, my understanding is the Moto G6 (2018 model) is equipped to transmit with Bluetooth version 4.2, whereas the BLT-HD is equipped to receive Bluetooth version 5.0. A device which transmits Bluetooth 5.0 can transmit much more audio information and do so faster than a device transmitting in Bluetooth version 4.2. The kicker is that to derive "all" of the benefits of aptX HD audio via Bluetooth 5.0 is for BOTH transmitter and receiver to be equipped for Bluetooth version 5.0. Otherwise, a Bluetooth receiver in version 5.0 like BLT-HD is backward compatible to other "lower" non-HD codecs transmitted via Bluetooth version 4.2. So, not to worry, if your smartphone is 4.2 and the BLT-HD at 5.0. The BLT-HD will still function and receive enough of the data, and sound really great, but just not as "high-def" as it would if both devices were perfectly Bluetooth version 5.0 compatible. Bottom line: you will still get great sound, just not the "perfect" sound that your oscilloscope is telling you that you "should" be hearing. Such compatibilty matches are important only if you must have the latest and greatest technical specs on paper that are out there. Your ears will be the final judge, and with my "crummy" non-5.0 transmitters, the BLT-HD works just fine for me.

Excelente. De buena calidad. Se conecta muy fácilmente y tiene muy buen alcance a pesar de estar a dos pisos de distancia con paredes anchas.

Fue regalo para mi hijo para actualizar un receptor Blutooth Logitech 980 de hace unos 10 años, lo primero que me dijo fué que notó mayor volumen y separacion de canales, además de mucho mayor calidad percibida en el aparato desde que lo sacó de su caja. Lo tiene conectado a un Margules ADE-24 analog/digital enhancer + ecualizador de bulbos + un Denon AVR5803.
