Do you see a notification about "connected with an Aptx device" on your phone/pc when using the K845? I do. Which is weird (they should not be aptx).

No, mine always say connected to AKG K845... but I have a blackberry so maybe it is different... but I highly doubt it as it is the same on my mac..

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?

aptX is a codec not a connection protocol. It makes a huge improvement in music quality--use Google to find quantitative measurements.

Cool! Let us know if it's actually the K790a, when you get it (and not the K790i, or K800).

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

The KD-X40 is marketed for the IPHONE. I haven't tried to use my Android, but I will try here soon.

I like it very much. If you have any questions about it, just let me know. The do post firmware upgrades frequently. I had upgraded to the latest, but had to roll back as there was a bug in that update where it quit playing my protected wma files. I put an issue in their bug tracker and they said they'd resolve the issue soon. But I really haven't found the need to upgrade the firmware anyway.

It will work with the device, but iDevices do not support aptX and the quality will suffer. Only macbook airs and pros support aptX. It will work fine through the iTouch, actually I'd expect it to have a more solid connection considering the lower bitrate without aptX but with aptX the device is very sensitive and loses connection and jutters the sound very easily. I'm going back to airplay for now.also edit: my issues i believe stem from living in a large apartment building with a ton of signal flying around, in a more rural setting it may perform much more solidly.

aptX (formerly apt-X) is a family of proprietary audio codec compression algorithms.aptX was previously named apt-X until acquired by CSR plc in 2010This is CSR chip based bluetooth device. It just relays data. My understanding is ok.

I don't think so. For apt-x receivers, you should look for receivers that are bluetooth 4.0 and/or supports NFC, but don't quite me in that

Bluetooth functionality is too notch. Personally I've never had any drops and with aptX the quality with high bit rate songs is CD-like. Overall the unit exceeded my expectations.

My question as well. I would be all over this one even without Bluetooth or the backlit keyboard if there were more reviews. Now there is a second review but it's for the guy's client, and contributes nothing. I want to hear feedback about the wifi card's connectivity issues, if any.

Someone needs to tell tech support about the blue circle vs the red circle..... I called tech support last Oct. and they kept insisting my router was the reason the radio would not connect to mysqueezebox.com.... I told them my itouch, my Roku radio and Boombox etc. all connected.

Nope. The OS hasn't affected me at all. I occasionally may have to go into the bluetooth settings and manually select "phonekit" for it to reconnect but that is only occasionally maybe a time or two a month. Not sure what the cause of that is.

I bought the Torque app for Android and paired the device with my phone over Bluetooth. The disc that came with it, I tossed. I read that it was full of viruses, so I never risked it.

You cable sync to the website as usual, when you start the app, it grabs the data off the website. So you can review past performance, but not current. And only overview same as Console, but not the details. And no, there is no Bluetooth transmission from the non-BW unit to tap into. Nor anyway to enable it. Unless the chipset/radio is in there to do it, and someone found a program hack for enabling it. And of course past performance is no indicator of future performance - oh wait, wrong topic.
