I have tested both the BluDento and AudioEngine devices, (just ordered the iFI rig tonight to test). I can say that they are both great sounding units and you cannot go wrong with either. However, I have returned both of them because of the following reason: They both will play a loud pop through my system at random times. The bludento didn't do it as much but it still did it which is very annoying and scary lol. I found that the bludento bluetooth signal is not as strong as the audio engine's (it was dropping within 10 feet sometimes). I have high hopes for the iFI!
Set up:
FLAC (samsung s8) -> said bluetooth DAC -> NAD C316 -> Swan M1
Sounds like you have a static buildup or some sort of interference. The NAD may have an issue as well. 3rd time may be a charm. I have had all of these units on many different receivers and a few pre-amps and have never had a pop issue. You may also be getting some line interference. Did you try different RCAs, take your system to another room, turn off your wifi. (The last NAD THX amp I had was problematic, I sold it BTW... ) There are many things that could be giving you problems, I had a old doorbell transformer in my attic giving my electronics fits back many years ago. If the ifi gives you any problems then you need to start troubleshooting IMO.
Good luck and keep us posted. Cheers
@@breakerbroke23 thanks for the reply! I know my issue is not common at all, no reviews have stated the problem I have had. I have tried multiple receivers (a couple of Sony's and the NAD), I've tried 3 sets of Rcas, 2 different audioengine units and still no dice. Plus when I use my receiver and speakers with a hard wired connection I do not get the issue. So I know it's the Bluetooth unit. You are probably right, there is some sort of interference going on causing the problem. Again, the bludento didn't pop as frequently or as loudly as the audioengine. So hopefully the iFi build quality will demolish those two and fix my problems lol.
@@hunterr9176 Stupid question... Have you tried different devices, phone, tablet, laptop?
@@breakerbroke23 yup, my phone and laptop were both tried. And the laptop is brand new. I get the ifi unit on Wednesday, I'll give it a good month worth of testing to see what happens and report back here. If that fails as well I'll have to just go back to the conventional hard wired method as random pops through the speakers are not considered "hifi" lol
@@SPPACATR what is it that you are interested in? My findings?
Blume HD with codec AptX HD is rated better than CD quality. I use this with my Samsung 9, it only has the standard AptX, which is CD quality. Love it!
You been reading too much marketing bs. Aptx HD has a Max bit rate of 576 kbps which is hardly "better than CD quality". LDAC does 990 kbps and that's not even enough for true lossless (flac files are 1500 kbps and higher)
Great video and very informative. The 1Mii B06 with Bluetooth 5.0 and aptx LL is currently being offered for $29 on Amazon and it would be interesting to hear your views on how this compares with these units.
IMHO... Its not in the same league sound wise, Pre-Amp output level, and I see a high number of returns.
@@breakerbroke23 Thank you so much for your reply. I do have the B06 and a pretty decent system, (lots of power, B&W CM 9s each paired with a sub, etc, in a challenging space with 27' ceiling...); I was pleasantly shocked at how good the B06 sounds but may give the iFi Zen a try.
@@breakerbroke23 I currently have both the 1Mii B06 and the B03. The sound from the Bo3 is good using Aptx from an LGV60 (BT5.1). The 1MII B06 has an occasional stutter, as if it were a buffer overflow, and I am disappointed in it.
Both are feeding separate Technics SE-7 amps (1983 vintage New Class A amps rated at 60 WPC) I intend to replace the 1Mii B06 with the B03, and have just ordered a new BluDento BLT HD to go with my Magnepan .7 speakers. I may report on the comparisons once it arrives and I have some time with it.
I have the ifi Zen Blue and it's excellent. It comes with a power supply but I have mine connected to the 5v output on the back of my amp, so it turns on and off with the amp.
Excuse my English. I want to ask if there is any difference regarding the digital optical or coaxial output of the bluethooth receivers. I have an external dac that I would like to complement. I hope you have understood me and can give me an answer. Thanks
The DAC;s inthe 4 devices I tested were great. I have a modi 3 DAC and i really cant tell "much" of a difference with and without. These are top quality receivers. Your English better than mine:)
Thank you for posting this, very helpful!
I just bought an old Yamaha rx-v2090 stereo receiver and hoping to get the Ifi so that I could listen to my Pandora stations once in a while from my iPhone to my old Yamaha ( from watching some of your other videos, I am learning that this is a possibility now with old stereo receivers).
But I don't own speakers because I live in an apt building, so I use a decent pair of Audio Technica headphones instead...
Will this Ifi Blue provide not only Bluetooth capabilities on my old receiver, but good quality, clear sound on my AT headphones, even if my Yamaha was built prior to the Bluetooth era?
Your advice will be deeply appreciated, thank you. 👍
-Marilyn
I assume your using wired headphones and listening through your new Yami. If that is the case, the iFi Zen will sound killer going through that receiver. Because you live in an apartment I would suggest getting some small bookshelf speakers like these.... amzn.to/3humOGp I have delt with these and if I lived in a APT this would be the way to go .. IMHO, just saying.. Cheers
@@breakerbroke23 excellent!👍👍
I was hoping you would say that.
Gonna check out the link you gave me. Thanks for your advice!
Great video, thanks...clear and precise
I decided on the Audioengine b1 and have had it for a few days. I use it with a iphone and Marantz 2215. I find that I have to adjust my tone controls when using the unit or it will be a little bass heavy, but not sure why. Any suggestions? Would the Zen blue be any better with this issue? I keep my tone controls straight up.
Can't believe you also have the Marantz 2250B , that's what I am looking to use a bluetooth receiver with .
I exclusively use the iFi Audio Zen Blue V2 on my 2250B. Will be doing a video on this setup soon. Cheers
Does any of them power on when they get power in? Don’t want to have to push a power button. Do you know of any matching transmitters (from a tv to an amp)
Nicely presented. Are there any blue tooth converters with a USB audio out interface?
Hi, the Blu one, if you give it power, you have to press power button to turn on? Or turn on automatically? Thank you
Thanks for the video . I’m getting the iFi. I’m using a Yamaha A/V receiver. Should I connect with RCA or optical for best sound ?
I would try both types of input and see what you like best.
The Zen is a great choice.
I use my Apple iPhone to stream music to my vintage receiver I just need a good Bluetooth receiver to hook to it that handles a AC, what do you recommend
This (IMHO) is my current favorite device to use. In fact at this time, it is the only unit I use on my home system. amzn.to/3CBkxme
@@breakerbroke23 thank you very much sir
Perfect topic, before the 2020 Christmas season arrives. Thank you!
Thanks for watching and Merry Christmas to you.
want to add echo dot to a converter for voice control. Thoughts on this? Would love to see a video of how we could do this.
I have the Blt Hd & Zen blue, both are awesome but zen blue seems to sounds better, maybe just in my head or maybe because it look better...
IMHO... After listening to ALL of these units using various phones & Tablets for hundreds of hours in total, I agree with your comment 100%.
Hy, i have an amplifier with optical specs: 96 kHz/24 bit max, witch receiver from this one's would you recommend it to me? Thank you
Zen Blue
May i ask for some of your personal knowledge in this area? Would I still need to install an external DAC after the Bluetooth receiver if sending music data from iPhone or iTunes laptop? My aim is to get hi res audio into integrated receiver and out to quality speakers. Much gratitude in advance, Robert.
I would try the BT receiver first (My fave is the Zen) then see how you like the sound. IMHO you notice the DAC a bit more when using headphones. But when using a stereo system, the DAC is not really a game changer. I don't usually use my outboard DAC.
(When using these units)
I think, when you use the optical out or the coaxial s/pdif out it actually bypasses the internal DAC and the digital/optical signal is then converted upon arrival at the destination.
Great review. Maybe you should compare the range, just thinking
Good point. I have done range testing on an individual basis and all performed well.
BTW... I still use and standby my ratings in 2023.
Cheers
Thank you for the review. Most reviews I found are BS bot reviews. What do you think of the fiio BTA30pro and the lavaudio DS200pro?
I do not yet own the BTA30PRO however I do like my BTA30, sounds great and overall great performance. I don't support 1Mii the parent company of lavaudio so I could not comment on that device. Thank you for the kind words. I try very much to "tell it like it is" IMO.
Cheers
@@breakerbroke23 thanks man! Can you please elaborate on why you don't support them? The specs on their receivers look good
@@a2mann2 Your welcome.
I don't feel comfortable answering that question at this time.
Cheers
@@breakerbroke23 ok no worries. Btw, I sense a bit of Ave influence on your presentation :) keep up the great work! Hey how about the sa300? Would that be a good option?
Two different animals, the SA300 is a BT Receiver with aux in, an amplifier and tone controls, oh... and summed mono out (sub out). I have to be honest, I still stand by my ratings in this video. These are by far my favorite BT receivers. However...At this time I'm testing the Auris PRO and the new BluDento device. Stay tuned for those tests.
I use the Monoprice Bluetooth5 transmitter/receiver it has optical input and outputs works really good was about $30. I have a Sony nw-a55 digital audio player that I use with it. It sounds super good.
The TX/RX units are good, but these units are a step up.
@@breakerbroke23 which one is the best for Panasonic RX-ED90 boombox?
i had the bluedento blt hd and changed to xduoo xq 50 pro .the xduoo sounds much much better on LDAC technology via usb player app tidal premium with bit perfect ,that way you get real cd quality . the xduoo is about 90 dollars and can be used as a dac via usb connection .enjoy everyone.....
Never heard of that brand, dude. I don't think I will gamble on any of the Chinese knock offs....
@@3811eric thats your mistake dude......
Do any of these devices output 5.1 surround or just stereo? Was hoping for a Bluetooth receiver that has a Digital output that can plug into my 5.1 surround sound speaker system, logitech Z906.
No real 5.1 surround that I know of.
Would a Bluetooth receiver such as these work in a hockey area? I need to play sound files and music from my phone to the PA system. But I'd like to sit away from the time keeping area and sit with my family in the stands. I'd say 100ft possibly 150ft away?
The iFi zen blue V2 would more than likely work, it has improved range ( I have tested to 185ft ) and balanced outputs as well as RCA, so it would integrate to your PA system well.... IMO
The range is not guaranteed as it depends so much on environment. Cheers
amzn.to/3gtgm5m
So for best sound quality, are we saying Audioengine or iFi?
ifi V2
So which would be best. For Harman Kardon. With nuance speakers I wonder. Leaning to. If Zen
I would lean that way as well. GREAT Device.
@@breakerbroke23 ordered lol
What do you think about XDUOO XQ-50 Pro? Will it be better than Ifi Audio Zen Blue?
IDK, I never used a XQ pro. However the Zen has out performed all of the other units I currently own. I have been looking at the XQ, but it just doesn't excite me enough to order.
Question. Statement first. I do not like flashing lights of Bluetooth devices screaming, “I am here!” Do these units flash insistently?
While these units have lights, they are not annoying at all. The Zen has more and bigger lighting but it is very soft. I very much dislike overly bright LED as well.
I have been enjoying my audioengine B1 for about a year now. Thank you for the confirmation of good quality.
I will give that IFI consideration if I decide to get an additional unit.
What might you say is the audible sound difference between the audioengine B1 and the IFI?
IMO, it is very hard to pick a winner between these units sound wise. I have been using the ifi more than the B1 because of the many different codecs. My Daughter is an Apple person and my Wife likes the ifi better. So it is now our new go to on the system in the front room.
@@breakerbroke23 thank you for this feedback.
Generally, if I'm not losing a large amount on sound quality, I'm going to be pretty happy with it :-)
I'm just not ready yet to spend the much larger quantities of money for the higher quality options for streaming music.
Nice video, thank you.
Thanks for watching... Cheers.
Do you get any dropouts or connection issues with the Blue Dento?
No. Works perfect as long as I stay in range.
I’m contemplating purchasing the Ifi Zen Blue V2 Bluetooth DAC to use in my hifi set up. I have a Marantz Melody X. M-CR612 which has Bluetooth functionality built in but I’m supposing (hoping?) that this will give better overall performance.
I looked at your Marantz, IMO the Bluetooth section was not important in the design of your receiver, so yes I think the ZEN would be an improvement over the OEM BT.
Also the OEM BT is 3.0.( a bit behind the times) I wanted the Marantz to be at least on par with the Zen, but no. Again IMHO. Coming from a MARANTZ guy:)
Thanks for your support
Cheers
@@breakerbroke23 that’s great, really appreciate you looking into this. Think I’m going to invest in one 👍🏻
Will any of these handle two WIRELESS Bose earbuds? The Avantree models will not. One works fine, 2 and they randomly disconnect. If none can, can I put two recievers to my TV and use one set of earbuds off each one.
The devices in this video are receivers only.
How would you think about TUNAI Firefly ? Its $40 LDAC receiver. I'm looking for a good LDAC receiver for my car, and because of that I'm looking for automatically pair with device when I power.
Never tried a Firefly.
Hi, there are 2 models of BluDento: BLT-2 (cheaper) and BLT-HD, which one do you recommend? Thank you
The HD is a more current version, (5.0) I am not sure but I think the 2 is or will be discontinued.
@@breakerbroke23 In their site BLT-2 says 5.1 so I think it's newer... but no aptx HD, just aptx. I'll go with the HD one, ty
Zen Bluetooth has a new V2 version. How much better is it?
It think it is worth the extra 30.00 better range and eventually the only one available will be the V2.
How does the Ifi blue zen turn on and off?
Which Bluetooth adapter would you recommend for IPhone/IPad with AAC signal?
The Zen for sure. The others work, but IMO the zen is a bit more AAC friendly. (Sound quality wise)
Can I run this through my dac useing the Digital Audio out..
depends on the DAC. But usually yes.
Any american made? And can you find any that are 5.2 bluetooth?
I have been looking for a unit manufactured in the USA for a few years now, found nothing. I even looked at the Mcintosh BT Receiver, in ultra fine print it says MADE IN CHY-NA. If you find a US built unit please let me know.
I ve got a bluetooth car stereo. When i come into my car and turn it on. I need to do nothing for the stereo to start playing my last podcast, or audiobook. Does any of this has this feature, or do i need to turn them on manualy?
I want a device that connect automaticaly and which also forces the connected device to start playing.
Is any of this doing that?
None of these receivers do what your car unit does. They all do hold 8 devices in memory so it is easier to get paired from a cold start. But that's it. I just have not seen a "good " device do what you are asking.IMO
@@breakerbroke23 when you come home with your phone, what all do you need to do, that the phone and the bt receiver connect? Just turn on the bt rx?
@@DaniloMajhenic Turn on the BT receiver, look for the receiver to show up on you phone (in bt mode) and just click on it.
I had an Alpine stereo that would do what your car does, it was nice. These receivers just do not act that way. It only takes a few seconds for these receivers to pair. My Honda CRV is a real pain in the azz to pair to. FWIW. Cheers.
I believe the Audioengine supports AirPlay over WiFi with higher quality audio output streaming from iPhone than Bludento over Bluetooth. Anyone have a comment about that?
I have a question about the systems if I were to get one. I have a Bluetooth cd player/Bluetooth radio in my camper. I also have marine speakers mounted outside wired to the radio. The Bluetooth range on the radio is trash at the most lol only 10 feet. So will one of these work if I wanted to connect it via Bluetooth to the radio and still be connected to play music from my phone. Any help is greatly appreciated thanks.
All of these devices will work better than the builtin BT receiver in your stereo. In order to add one of these devices to your stereo you must have some sort of an RCA input. Like a AUX, Cd,VCR,tape input. If so then pick witchever unit you in this video that suits your budget. My pick would be the Zen, BlueDento, Auris. (In that order) IMHO
Cheers and thanks for watching.
Love my BluDento HD which I use for Amazon Music HD hooked up to my Pioneer A-616 Reference integrated amp. Don't find it to be bright at all.
The BD is an outstanding device, I am using speakers with Horns for Mid and Tweets, so that can magnify highs.
Thanks for watching.
Are these bluetooth devices hearing aid compatible
No, these devices are receivers. If you want to send sound to your hearing aids you will need a BT Transmitter.
I am looking for a blue tooth adapter for a Bose Wave IV system. Got one for Christmas but didn't get the soundtouch pedestal. Which bluetooth adapter would you recommend.
IMO... BLT-HD or the Zen

Hi Mike. I have a Yamaha A-S2200 integrated analogue amplifier with no digital or optical inputs. Do I get the full benefit of these blue tooth receivers when I use my amps analogue inputs? My primary listening is CD and phono. I just wish to use Spotify from my phone to amp occassionally. Thank you.
IMO you will get the full benefit of the internal DACs that are in all four of these units. I would base my pic on what speakers you are using with that sweet amp of yours. If your speakers are on the bright side of things then I would go with the B1, more neutral sounding then I would use the Zen Blue. The Zen is still my personal favorite, closER to CD quality.

i wonder how the Mypin compares with these four.
I doesn't. Don't get me wrong, the MYPIN sounds good but not at the level of these devices. IMHO
@@breakerbroke23 Thank you breaker for the quick honest response.
Was wondering if you ran into any problems with the 1Mii B08 that knocked out of your list?
The 1mii works just fine, it is not the same type of device. These units are for receiving BT signal and sending audio out to a RCA line level. The 1mii unit is a receiver and amplifier.
Can these receivers output to more than one type connection at a time, ie. RCA, optical etc.? I'm assuming no.
@@tomhiggins875 The Zen is the only one that can not output all at the same time.
I like being able to switch between analog and optical (going through the outboard DAC) using Tape 1 and 2 inputs.
@@breakerbroke23 Since I don't have an outboard DAC would the order of your ranking change?
@@tomhiggins875 I stand by my ranking with and without DAC.
INHO... the DAC is just not needed.
It's the 30 band equalizer of 20s.
Hi Mike,
Excellent channel! I am looking to receive Bluetooth from a new 4K TV to a Yamaha stereo receiver. In your experience, which of these units have the lowest latency to reduce or eliminate video/audio sync issues?
Thx!
You want to go optical out from your TV to the Stereo receiver? None of these units will do that. They only receive a BT Signal and send it to you receiver via RCA or Optical/coax out to your receiver.
I take it your yami receiver has no optical/coax in? So if that is the case and you want to transfer audio from the TV to Stereo receiver then you need a DAC like the SCHIIT Modi3.
EDIT... or the like.
My problem is when using optical output I can’t control volume using BT headphones. Also when I use 3.5mm jack instead of the optical. I get audio lag
I've been thinkin' about the "BLT" one. Like that name & need an upgrade to the Logitech.
The BLT sounds great, it will most definitely be an upgrade from the Logi. Hmmm I'm hungry:)

5.0
Nice video range would have been a plus.
Range videos are coming.
None of those are pure BT receiver. They are all DAC with BT receiver. You pay 70% of the price for the DAC. It would be great to compare some pure BT receiver for people who already have a DAC
Great, since this is only January
Can anyone recommend models to use in a car? Will need USB power and headphone jack
Two devices come to mind. They not only have a headphone jack for output, they have a "hotter" Line Level output to drive you deck better.

192kHz Digital to Analog Converter Bluetooth 5.0 Receiver amzn.to/2QLFsQa (this one has great preamp drive and extended bass)

Go RCA out from the FiiO to the 3.5mm into your Car Stereo. The RCA out will still have that extra output you will need.
You are going to use this on a car stereo with a AUX input on the front correct?
@@breakerbroke23 that's right! Thank you!
How about the Fiio Bta30?

Hi, I may be missing something, can you please explain why I would buy a Bluetooth device costing over a hundred dollars and upwards when the $15 Bluetooth transmitter/receiver I bought on eBay is working fine?
Because the these units will sound WAY better unless your stereo system is not of sound quality, then you would not notice much difference.
No seriously. Long story short... These units have a far superior BT Chipset and DAC as well as being the proper impedance and line level output.
Trust me,
you will hear A difference OR send it back.

For the wages of sin is death; but the gift of God is eternal life through Jesus Christ our Lord. (Romans 6:23)
Therefore also now, saith the LORD, turn ye even to me with all your heart, and with fasting, and with weeping, and with mourning: And rend your heart, and not your garments, and turn unto the LORD your God: for he is gracious and merciful, slow to anger, and of great kindness, and repenteth him of the evil. (Joel 2:12-13)
I tell you, Nay: but, except ye repent, ye shall all likewise perish. (Luke 13:5)

What he misses is that the USB powered units can work without a power block right off the computer, no outlet necessary. PS turn down that godawful music at the closing. Please.
Why would you depend on a computer to power up one of these devices that input audio to your stereo? Your logic would mean you need to have a computer powered on to listen to BT through your stereo.... Kind of silly.
Use a AC adapter, plug into your 110v out on the stereo receiver or the AC Wall outlet.
Think man think.
"What he misses"??
The Irony.
John,
Does the audio come through the USB cable and charge the unit simultaneously?
Unfortunately I just purchased the Harman Kardon BTA 10. Is there any comparison to these 4 units?
These units do sound better. That being said the HK is no slouch! It serves as a low cost, good sounding, high quality device. Just like ALL electronics, back a few years ago the HK was a top unit, but with newer technology the HK is now sort of outdated, however some people don't want to spend $100-200+ for the convenience of Bluetooth. The HK has been a proven performer and will last many years. IMO.
