If an IOS device is the source, APTXHD or LDAC in BT5.0 won't be used. However, AAC will be and hopefully at a high bitrate, so should be good SQ.I have a BluDento BLT-2 that has been rock solid. Not used the DAC, only optical out, but the bluetooth bit of it works really well and gives good range/no dropouts. I see they now also have a AptX HD version, which is probably worth considering. Bought direct with fast & free shipping from HK.
