Does this one actually have the AptX codec? Does it use it? and how much of a difference does it make if it does?

Not sure if it does. It's an ok pair of headphones as i use it while walking to the office as it does the job. They are so so if you use them in the tube or metro. Don't expect any noise canceling though.

Yes,Yes and Yes! Buy these head phones they are all that and more bluethooth 4 is so good you will never go back to any other type again. Plus they answer yor phone. Take care of them and they will take care of you. Try to use a bluetooth 4 with them for lossless audio quailty(pure clean sound) and extra long play time! The price is equal to phones costing four times more just be carefull with your hearing because the HiFi sounds so good that you may tend to turn them up to unsafe levels. Know the limits!

Yes, XBMC installs and runs fine in general. There are many different sub builds of XBMC available, however. Codec support for certain video playback is hit or miss.Some builds work exceptionally well , and some do not work as well.

Thanks for the info.Personally, I'm not terribly interested in all of the bells and whistles (like internetTV and wifi capability), but if this can play a good range of video files with varying codecs, it's looking like a good buy. :)

Reading what's been posted, I can't find if this has AptX capability. Has anyone experienced latency from their bluetooth transmitter using a TV to this device with corded headphones? Thanks...Mike

Yes it does support APT-X codec for high-quality bluetooth stereo sound. The APT-X codec is notably real-time streaming of high quality stereo audio over the bluetooth A2DP connection/pairing between a "source" device (such as a smartphone, tablet or laptop) and a "sink" accessory (namely a Bluetooth stereo speaker, headset or headphones).

Yes and it sounds fantastic! Just check the product images - you will see that one of the images is of the packaging, where it states "APT-X High Quality Decoding".

Im sure there are other apps out there but I play my files from my NAS using XBMC. The only ones I have problem with are 1080p 3D movies and I think thats more of the A100 itself and not so much XBMC.

The generic XBMC release will have interface working, however video has a lot of problems. There are some experimental releases which have some improvements in the player, but they are not stable and cannot be really used. I would not recommend this device to be used for XBMC as of today.

That's been my experience too, at least with the btd-v401 which I tried on Windows 7 (both 32-bit and 64-bit), 8, and 10. I'm ready to throw in the towel with apt-x and look for some other low-latency cable-free solution.

Yes, it does. The remote actualy have convinient buttons to do it very easily. Just be sure to update to the latest version, i had some issues with the player out of the box, but once I update firmware worked fine. Just one comment, I convert several of my blu rays to mkv and then encode it myself to take less room on my hd, I had some issues with subtitles doing that, but I am awere that is mostly for the encoding that I used. For multiple audio tracks just be sure that your receiver supports the format of the source and you are set.

I don't know. I found this program more difficult to use that the one I had before - "Creative Media Source". I went back to it. It is on my Wiin XP computer and came with the sound card, and I cannot find any place to buy it. Now that XP is no longer supported, I am using the old computer off-line, just for for copying my old recordings, and off-line activities, etc. That way I can use the Creative Media Source for my sound work.

I have this adapter because I wanted higher fidelity and when watching TV, have the sound line up with what was happening on the screen. Normal Blue Tooth without codec, the sound lags the screen. My BT headphones , the WP-380, run BT 3.0 and work great using AptX codec

According to http://www.aptx.com/brand/akg It does support aptX! Probably only those manufactured since 2015 is equipped with this technology. This could be why AKG never highlight this feature on its official website or any spec sheet. But What about if I buy a one made in 2014?

Thanks for your inquiry. The AK120 supports Bluetooth aptX streaming at CD quality. Please let us know if you have any other questions!
