Is it just me or does bluetooth audio not sound as good as wired headphones/speakers

Back in my day we had to wait until we could here it on the AM Radio.

Then cassettes came out and we would hover our fingers over the record button during the weekly FM top 40 show because we were too poor to buy the album.

And making mix tapes using two tape recorders or a stereo that had two tape decks. :biggrin:

I feel old now.

Ah. I was just reading about A2DP.

This is a typical experience as a casual user. And BT in question was my Hyundai SUV. It's pretty bad.

My friend's CR-V's BT audio is similarly bad compared to wired as well.

In the future, I may be looking into BT audio for outdoor patio use (via smartphone). I'll be sure to tap your knowledge once I get to that.

Almost makes me wish that cars had a standard modular component for Bluetooth so you could select the receiver you want. You still can, but it will use the AUX jack and won't be as well integrated. I love my BT car kit (Kinivo BTC450) and would probably use it even if my car had built in BT.
