Quick and easy connection. Being small, I was able to discreetly place it behind my old amplifier, which is now AirPlay compatible; invisible installation.
Adapter bought to replace an Airport Express terminal that had given up the ghost.
Advantages: starts up very quickly (~20sec). Connects to the home wifi network and allows any wifi device (Apple or iTunes) connected to stream its music. Audio quality comparable to the AE terminal on the optical output. Power supply included.
Disadvantages : A little expensive despite a special offer.
Perfect LDLC delivery ?
Small, quiet and practical for AirPlay 2 on an old HiFi amplifier!
On the downside, there's a slight latency when you start the music (+/- 1 sec).
Otherwise, everything's fine
1) complicated to pair with iPhone
And compatible with iPhone 8 x xs etc..
You need iOS 16.2
2 it is absolutely necessary a modem or a sharing of connection with another smarphone tablet because iPhone cuts the network 4g in wifi also not its function!
3 ) the audio quality is just acceptable for audiophiles and excellent for
The other users hifi sound bar etc..
In streaming Apple music loless 24bit 192mhz Compare to sacd
The cruel lack of dynamics and narrower stereophonies lacks depth, compared to the Bluetooth 5.2
The Belkin is much better, but no miracle in wireless connection
4) hardware used
