Finally! A Professional Bluetooth Receiver

This was clearly engineered by someone who knows what the pros actually need. The only downside is that you can't rename the bluetooth broadcast ID name.
I've been using it through studio monitors and it sounds pretty flat. SNR is huge for a bluetooth device. I'm buying another one for my personal use.

The best sounding Bluetooth receiver Period!

Typically Bluetooth audio is quite bad compared to wifi or wired streaming. Most HiFi manufacturers typically implement Bluetooth as an after thought/nice to have and focus on other areas more such as airplay, chromecast etc…. I own an audiolab 6000a play and the Bluetooth on that amp sounds like what you would normally expect Bluetooth to sound like. When I connected the B3 to the amp I was blown away at how good the Bluetooth sounded from my iPhone compared to the built in Bluetooth on the audiolab 6000a. I couldn’t believe what I was hearing. The crazy thing is the audiolab and the B3 both use the same Dac and both were streaming with AAC codec but the B3 just sounded better. If you want the best quality audio from Bluetooth look no further. The B3 is worth it over built in Bluetooth or some cheap Bluetooth addon from Amazon, Temu or Ali Express. Blafili is serious about Bluetooth. Just look at the product listings it’s all they do.

Great range, well-made

This bluetooth streamer deserves the high ratings that it has. It has great range, is well built, and has lots of connectivity options. Customer service is excellent. I had a little trouble with the install (user error) even though the directions are very clear. They were quick to respond and I was up and running in no time. I highly recommend this company and their product!
