🎧 Auris Blume HD: Long Range Bluetooth 5.0 Hi-Fi Music Receiver with Audiophile DAC & AptX HD - Enhance your Home Stereo, AV Receiver or Amplifier! Review

I'm a computer systems engineer (video and audio network) and this is my first 5 star product review. I'm impressed with this HD Bluetooth receiver. Set up with my Samsung device (2012 tablet) is easy. I use it to get HD music from Revain, Tunein and Spotify music, they all work. Good sound quality with cinch and optical connections. Now I can use my analog hi-fi system (3 preamps, 3 power amps) to play HD digital audio! This unit saved a $600 purchase (a Denon HiFi receiver). We strongly…

I hooked this up to a high quality Denon receiver because the receiver doesn't have aptX and the music only sounds so-so via Bluetooth directly on the receiver. Plugging in the Auris was a breeze and listening to music at low volume was fine, but you could hear all sorts of static noise when turning it on. I swapped out the cables, tried repositioning the receiver, and did all the usual tricks, but still got noticeable noise (hissing plus occasional "pops"). According to the manual, it's not a…

This is my third Bluetooth/DAC combo receiver. Before purchasing, I checked the updated 2019 Audioengine B1. I chose this model because it specifically claims to support AAC, which is perfect for Apple iPhone/iPad music. It took 5 minutes to connect and pair. Very easy. I would describe my system as audiophile. It features a custom tube preamp connected to a Mark Levinson (92lb Monster) power amp that outputs the audio to a pair of Magnepan speakers. Sound: I've always known that a direct…

I needed a device to connect my iPhone to our Sonos system as an alternative to Bluetooth speakers. I bought this device on the recommendation of a friend, it works great. Very easy setup - cables for RCA and 3.5mm jack plugs are included (you need RCA for Sonos input). Initial pairing and later re-pairing a paired device is just as easy - just press the button on the bluMe receiver to wake it up, then select Auris bluMe on iPhone. The range is really impressive. Not only does it pick up a…

This device works exactly as I wanted it to. I have an old stereo. I stream music to it from my tablet and it sounds really good. It lacks CD quality to my ears. I have many remastered CDs that don't produce the same sound quality as music from a digital source. For those who want to get a clue as to how good it is, here's what I mean. I had the opportunity to compare music streaming with Bluetooth 4.2 (Galaxy S7 phone) and Galaxy Tab SA with Bluetooth 5.0. I found the audio from the 5.0 source

Just upgraded my Revain music subscription to HD music. In order to enjoy HD music (or Ultra HD music - up to 24-bit/192kHz), you need to ensure that everything in the streaming path from the source to the speaker is HD audio (16-bit/44.1kHz ie CD) supported. quality) or Ultra HD audio. I'm streaming from a recently purchased Revain tablet that supports HD audio. I had to make sure the Bluetooth receiver could also support audio at an increased data rate. Auris actually tells you what chips are
