![]() Drop the SBC bitpool and it becomes very obvious, at low bitrates SBC is noticeably bad. It's not blind, but I can't obviously tell SBC with the default 328 kbit/s. Here's an online encoder, you can compare them. But I'm not sure that really is a problem on modern devices, I think you have to go back a long way for this, but its reputation from years ago has stuck with it. ![]() So you avoid the "badly implemented SBC" problem. The main benefit of AptX is that it is consistent, it's a black box from Qualcomm so you are guaranteed on every device it is going to have exactly the same implementation. People who have done actual blind tests of modern SBC do not find it to be bad. Most modern devices SBC sounds a lot better, in fact high bitrate SBC is arguably better than AptX. SBC has a historical issue with really old devices implementing it with excessively low bitpools. - Posts that talk about the state of the sub.- For all headphone or headphone gear comparison questions.- Posts that link to deals for headphones or related equipment.- Posts that involve modifying or creating something headphone related.- Posts that are related to industry news.- Posts that are meant to generate discussion on any relevant subject to headphones.- This includes any post that is a person sharing their thoughts on a headphone, includes impressions and reviews.r/audiorepair - Repair help for audio gear.r/BudgetAudiophile - for restricted budget-hifi.r/diyaudio - Do-It-Yourself Audio - also /r/diytubes and r/diysound. ![]()
