AMPIRE BTR200-HD, Bluetooth audio receiver with aptX HD

INFORMACIJA

AMPIRE BTR200-HD - allows you to upgrade your car's audio system with wireless Bluetooth music streaming. The device connects to the vehicle's 12V electrical system and transmits the audio signal via a 3.5 mm jack. The integrated Qualcomm QCC3034 chip supports high-quality aptX HD, aptX, aptX Low Latency, AAC, and SBC audio codecs. This allows for high-quality music streaming and reduced audio latency when used with a compatible smartphone or other device. The receiver automatically turns on with the vehicle's ignition and can restore the connection to the last paired device. Up to 9 Bluetooth devices can be saved, although only one can stream music at a time.

AMPIRE BTR200-HD will not be suitable for cars whose audio systems lack a 3.5 mm AUX input or a 12V power supply. It is also important to note that Apple iPhones do not support the aptX codec, and not all Android phones have it, so it is worth checking your phone's compatibility before purchasing. The device is intended for use in vehicles.

DESCRIPTION

If you want to listen to your music, audio books or navigation from your Apple iPhone or Android smartphone wirelessly via Bluetooth® in maximum sound quality in your car, then the Bluetooth® receivers of the BTR series with aptX are the solution. You can upgrade to wireless A2DP Bluetooth audio streaming on most navigation and car stereo systems with Ampire's Bluetooth receivers.

The connection is easily set up and automatically restored via Bluetooth®. The BTR series uses the Bluetooth® protocol for headphones on your smartphone and does not affect the functionality of your Bluetooth® hands-free car kit.

The BTR200-HD Bluetooth® receiver is designed for navigation and car radio systems with a 3.5 mm jack input and an on-board power supply of 12 volts.

Bluetooth® listening in CD quality with aptX(TM)?
As an alternative to standard Bluetooth®, we also have receivers with the Bluetooth® aptX(TM) codec. This codec is becoming more and more popular. If you use devices with the aptX(TM) standard, you can significantly improve the sound quality of your Bluetooth® streams.

What does Bluetooth® aptX(TM) improve?
The aptX® codec uses a more efficient method of compressing audio data that makes better use of the available bandwidth. The prerequisite for aptX® streams is that the playback device as well as the transmitter also support Bluetooth® aptX(TM). The function can be recognised by the aptX(TM). lettering on the device. The codec supports the common audio formats such as MP3 and FLAC.

Which smartphones support Bluetooth® aptX(TM)?
Not all Android smartphones support the Bluetooth® codec aptX(TM). You can check whether your Android smartphone is compatible in the technical data of your smartphone. An Apple iPhone does not support the Bluetooth® codec aptX(TM).
