Product Review: Audioengine B1 Bluetooth Music Receiver
Jim Clements over at Secrets of Home Theater and High Fidelity has reviewed the new Audioengine B1 Premium Bluetooth Music Receiver so make sure to check it out!
Introduction to the Audioengine B1 Bluetooth Music Receiver Review
Audioengine opened for business in 2005 with their first product being the A5’s. These were powered bookshelf speakers that were warmly received by consumers. Over the ensuing 9 years, Audioengine has continued to develop and sell low-cost high quality products in the loudspeaker, subwoofer and accessory categories.
One area where they are particularly well known involves a number of wireless audio products that they have brought to market. These started with the Wx series of wireless adapters. I personally used a W1 for several years as the interface for my outdoor system and was impressed by its performance and reliability.
Now Audioengine is continuing to up their game with the B1 Bluetooth receiver. This compact little accessory uses the latest aptX Bluetooth protocol to boost its range and offer high quality audio over the somewhat maligned Bluetooth interface. So the big question here is “will an audiophile be able to really enjoy music over Audioengine’s newest Bluetooth receiver?”
