Hi Andre, There has been a lot of progress made in Bluetooth technology since it was first introduced including in the sound quality department. As I said in an earlier post, I would still not recommend it for an audiophile. However it is quite good. A lot depends on the quality of the speakers, headphones etc to which the audio signal is being transmitted. For example I have a cheap pair of bluetooth headphones which I use to listen to audiobooks, but I would never use them to listen to music. If I wanted to listen to music using Bluetooth, I would either transmit the signal to a good pair of Bluetooth headphones, my stereo system, or to the car stereo. HTH.

Are we at that stage where the sound of sound transmitted via Bluetooth is just as good as a direct cable connection between high quality audio devices or do we still have some way to for this to be the case?

Hello Mark. You appear to have misunderstood my e-mail. I repeat, any audio device, whatever it is, can be linked via Bluetooth if you have the correct adaptor. I have one here, and I can plug it into anything, even a radio over thirty years old if I want to, because the adaptor is simply carrying the audio from the headphone socket to the transmitter, which then sends the audio via Bluetooth.

If you have a bluetooth adaptor with a mini-jack plug on the end, you can make any piece of equipment work with Bluetooth. For example, I can plug my Bluetooth adaptor into my hi-fi amplifier, my Daisy player, my Plextalk Pocket, any CD player or tape deck, and this will make it Bluetooth compatible. However, it does not mean that you can control the equipment remotely, but simply that you can listen via your Bluetooth headphones if that is the way you prefer. However, I would suggest that a much better alternative is to use wireless headphones, as, if you buy the right ones, and don't skimp on price, you can get extremely good sound with cordless wireless headphones. You can even get wireless or cordless speakers which work in the same way. Peter

Hi Steve, Russ is correct, it doesn't natively support bluetooth. You would need a Bluetooth transmitter as I demonstrate in the below short podcast: Want to know how to use your Victor Stream, BookSense, BookPort, Plextalk Pocket, NLS player, any other book player or Talking Mp3 Player with Bluetooth headphones, speakers, through a stereo system, etc? Here's our new podcast on the Miccus Bluetooth devices we offer and how to use them as a blind or vision-impaired person to enable any book player or other non-Bluetooth audio device to use Bluetooth: http://www.blind-geek-zone.net/bluetooth-devices-and-using-them-with-your-t… All the best, Laz From: Russ Kiehne <russ94577(a)gmail.com> To: Plextalk User Discussion List <plextalk(a)lists.hodgsonfamily.org> Subject: Re: [Plextalk] New Portable Water Resistant Wireless Mini-Speaker!As low as $24.99 with Coupon Code.

Hello Arno, I would never suggest Bluetooth for an audiophile, as there's always some smallamount of sound degradation that mey not be perceivable by folks who aren't audiophiles but which will affect the listening pleasure of audiophiles. I would recommend you stick to cables and the gold plated wired connectors and plugs if you use those. To answer your question though, the Miccus devices use A2DP.

Brass is okay but the trible sounds like AM radio. ATP-X to my ears sounds a little bid better than the standard codec.
