Audioengine B1 Bluetooth Music Receiver vs Audio-Technica AT-LP120

I think the build quality of the device is premium. The only thing that I think that isn't is the antenna, for whatever reason it doesn't seem like it...

On the flip side, I don't want to inadvertently downgrade to a worse option if the Marantz is already decent for audio. Also, I still need to deal with my TV audio..

It's lost a couple of kilograms from the previous model, for example, and the included atvm 95e cartridge will die a terrible death if you wanted to u...

I have never heard a wireless signal sound so clean and authoritative in the bottom end without being muddy or losing its musicality. The B1 is extremely quite and I have not detected any background noise at all. Very impressive. As an experiment I decided to hook up the B1 to my Musical Fidelity V90 Dac to see if that made this already great sounding piece better

So it's a definite improvement. The only thing that's not really up to par is the is the cartridge. It comes with., It's a little weak on the bass and...

In fact, the whole point in supporting both the HD and the LL codecs is that there are different definitions of “the best” based on the application space. One usage model might value audio quality as the most important characteristic, but another might value low latency as the most important. If I’ve understood the B1’s protocol choice algorithm correctly, it’s an unfortunate design decision. All the modern high-quality transmitters which support AptX protocols whichI have looked at support both HD and LL, which means that the B1 can NEVER function as a low latency receiver

I await that opportunity soon and will revisit this report. One more observation thing. AT headshell has no parallel surfaces so when I wanted to hold it in a small plastic sided electronics vise, almost impossible to hold it firmly.Something else interesting
