Playing back with high
quality sound codec
(AAC/LDAC™)
This system can receive data in the
AAC or LDAC codec format from a
BLUETOOTH device. It provides a
playback with higher sound quality.
You can select an audio codec option
from the following two settings by
using “SongPal” (page16). The
default setting of this system is
“AUTO.”
To apply the changes of the setting,
you need to terminate the BLUETOOTH
connection (page12), and then
perform the BLUETOOTH connection
again.
• AUTO: The system detects the codec
used on the source device and
automatically selects the optimal
codec from “SBC,” “AAC*” or “LDAC*.”
• SBC: “SBC” is always applied
regardless of the codec used on the
source device.
* Available only when the codec is
supported by your BLUETOOTH device.
Note
You can enjoy higher sound quality
when the source device is compatible
with AAC/LDAC and this function is set
to “AUTO.” However, the sound may be
interrupted depending on the conditions
of the BLUETOOTH communication. If this
happens, set the function to “SBC.”
