They are all Bluetooth so, quality of internals aside, basically exactly the same. Had a quick look at the Igbloo and almost fell about laughing, I’m sure it will do well as form factor and function looks good but all that talk about high quality audio for a device that will pretty much be used by people using low bit rate music rips from iPhones and Android devices is a huge contradiction.
Igbloo uses the APT-X and AAC codecs for incredible improvements in audio transport quality across the Bluetooth link, meaning the audio is cleaner, crisper and far higher quality than standard Bluetooth streamed music.
We’re using the world-renowned Wolfson DACs (Digital To Analogue Conversion) used in some of the world’s highest quality audio devices, which means the music is reproduced beautifully. This kind of technology is what sets audio devices apart.
Our line-level amplification is the result of months of iteration after iteration to create the cleanest sound we could with the fullest dynamic range.
And if your device has a digital optical in, then extremely unusually for a device like this, igbloo is fitted with digital optical out, giving you a 100% pure digital signal through to your sound system.
“100% pure digital”… What a great marketing quote and bypasses both the ‘Wolfson DACs’ and wonderful ‘line-level amplification’ you’ve just harped on about… Hahaha
