All things wireless are now, and always will be complete and utter crap

Give me EVERYTHING in its wired variety.

Well, and this is BT 5.2... which is years behind. Not sure if it makes a difference though. BT is mostly an overly congested, constrained protocol, but I do believe that the latest revisions can at least properly transmit Redbook.

I will say that I've enjoyed LDAC with 5.0(?) can't remember but I know that my tablet and car stereos support it. It is a noticeable improvement, not huge but noticeable. Looking forward to when BT and it, or something similar, can get upwards of 2 MB/s at 96 kHz. Once that happens I'll probably have interest in wireless headphones.

Also, the fact that the name of these "cans" reminds me of one of these also doesn't help first impressions ?



We are talking about the can in the porta-potty, yes?
