Notes:


  • Compression: the standards committee for Bluetooth audio has set the audio data channel bit rate at 721kb/sec. As this is less than the 1.4Mb/sec required for uncompressed 16-bit CD quality audio, the Bluetooth audio channels are compressed. The quality of audio is determined by the type of compression used. The Bluetooth default compression standard is SBC (sub-band compression) with a high-quality bit-rate> 300kb/sec, which is comparable to CD quality.

  • Audio Performance: the performance specifications are per the data sheets from AVW.
