Thanks for the info. I just received mine and I am quite impressed! Thanks!
Really like your review . A new product that I'd not come across before. Thank you.
Your welcome:)
Great review...I just ordered a BLT from amazon..will be using it in a garage/shop...can't wait to try it out..thank you
Hola a te llego que te parecio suena rico ? 😲😋
How was it for you?
Thanks for that review, appears to perform quite well so looks like i will purchase one of these puppies.....
I have one and LOVE it. Also, big plus, the DAC built into this guy sounds better than the DAC in my Marantz home theatre receiver. I used RCA's (using the DAC in the Bluedento) and then switched to an optical cable (to use the DAC in the receiver) and it sounds noticeably better (cleaner, less bright, and fuller bass/mid-range) than the Marantz. It is a wonderful piece of geat to add to a system. Great review by the way!
This unit is becoming one of my favorite Bluetooth receivers. I have been using it with a Schitt Modi 3. Sounds excellent on my old Marantz. Cheers.
I like the the optical output very nice plug right into my reciever👍
I have 2 of the BLU DENTO BLT 2's. Very happy with them. Ordered from another source and was able to specify a different Bluetooth name for the 2nd one. Therefore easy to keep separate on my devices when pairing. Factory communication to do this and they were great about it. Haven't heard this HD unit but can't imagine that it would be any better than BLT 2. Have heard the Audioengine unit and couldn't tell the difference. Two BLU Dento's or one Audioengine,,,,no brainer.
YES! This is just what I've been looking for as a vintage audio collector & user (Sansui 9090BD & Marantz 2325 are my main rigs.) I bought a cheapy Bluetooth Adapter from Amazon & tried it out today. It's only about 15 feet away from my computer and cuts out every 15 seconds or so & sounds distorted. NOT GOOD.... Returning & exchanging for this one now. I'll keep you posted. Thanks!
Please do keep us posted. Cheers
When it comes to audio I believe old school is the best school
The newer equipment just doesn't sound like what I grew up listening to
I am an 80's kid
Just went ahead and purchased one of these (meant to, awhile ago). Will be used w/ a 1991 Sony STR-GX49ES receiver. Currently have the Logitech &, yup, cranking the volume for it, can be a pain!
Hi buddy, completed my test with my neighbour this weekend, and man what a weekend, as I explained before I'm now using the blue dento hd and my neighbour is using the audioengine b1, my set up is roksan with dynaudio speakers, he's using creek amplifier with B&W speakers, both sounded beautiful,the audioengine really sounded great on his rig,we played various genre's to get out ears tuned in,after about an hour,we both realised the blu dento really is a smasher,my guess is the I was getting was probably due in part to the rca a lead I was using,I used the atlas equator mk3,he ran industry standard come in the box sort of thing,so for me my total cost was £135 of which 75 was the blue dento,the audioengine cost him 169,conclusion is these are both winners in the sound stake,but for me the blu dento wins on price value,and I also think the younger will find the blu dento lively with Morden music,win win my friend.
Yes in my listening the b1 was a flatter sound, but crisp. The Bludento was a bit more upfront sounding. Using my homemade RCSs.
I must say when I bought the b1 I was sure it would be the best overall, especially since they cost so much more. I don't usually fall into that trap where more cost is better sound but as learned that is not always the case.😉
Thanks for your comment, I'm sure this may help some people out.
Cheers.....
Thank you. I bought one
Hope you enjoy it!
I have just bought the Bludento BLT2. The specs look the same with the same Brown Burr chip. It’s Bluetooth 5.1 and not 4 as you stated. I am about to connect to my Technics amps cassette inputs. I will let you know how it sounds. It seems remarkable value at under £60 off eBay and it only took a week to reach me in the UK.
I must have misspoke in the video, my BLT-HD says it is BT 5.0.
Thanks for watching, Cheers.
@@breakerbroke23 been listening to the BLT2 using my iPhone 11 with Apple Music for a day and absolutely love it. My amp is a 20 to 30 year old Technics class AA. If I am being picky I would say not quite as spacious as my good quality turntable and CD player but not far off and it’s still a brilliant performance especially as it was under £60. Very easy to set up and clear instructions with all the cables provided but I used my own better quality RCA cables and a longer better power cable.
Looks great but why no power switch / included power cable? It means that you'd need to spend another 10 bucks to get one of those USB to wall plugs with a built in on/off switch.
Thank you for the feedback. BluDento will upgrade it next version.
It would have been helpful if you covered how to power the unit specifically. Some of us are novice on this!
This video may answer some questions for you. th-cam.com/video/BDHeloWPVtk/w-d-xo.html
I'm really a noob when it comes to this audio stuff. If using the optical output on the BluDento bypasses the internal DAC, am I better off using the RCA jacks if I don't have an external DAC unit? All I have is an old Denon A/V unit that has optical ports.
If you have optical in put on your Denon I would try it, I would also try your RCA inputs as well. Would be interesting to see witch one sounds better. Your Denon DAC may be better.... or maybe not, the BLT may have a better sound because it is newer technology. Great question and thanks for watching. Cheers...BB23
@@breakerbroke23 appreciate the response. If my phone just has the 4.2 version of bluetooth, would there be any advantage of buying the 5.0 HD version in this review? I know it reverts to 4.2, but are there any features that I would notice and worth the extra cost? Thanks again.
@@Blue_Dun In this case, BluDento BLT-2 is enough for you.
If the audio input is Bluetooth only, how do you use it with a standard stereo receiver?
stream preloaded music from laptop/iphone/ipad/ android phone, etc via Bluetooth to the BLT 2 which is connected via cable to the aux in, tv in, SPID in, COAX in, etc on back of preamp or receiver. JUST not to PHONO IN!!!!!!!!
I just got a Bludento BLT-HD I am using with a Technics New Class A 1983 reciever.
Be sure to set your connection to high quality instead of most stable.
Very nice, last year I sold my SA828 receiver man that thing sounded great.
Monster Receiver for sure.
Cheers
What’s the Bluetooth chipset?
Specs supports flac and wav...is this true? This is unique as others do not. I did not know BT 5 could transmit Flac/wav size?
Yes, we BluDento have tested all these formats.
dbm= db ref 1 mw that is db with reference to 1 mw of power so dbm is a measure of sound power, not db per meter. Check it out on wikipedia.
How does one know if Bluetooth is two channel stereo. In particular the Amazon input or echo?
Definitely 2 channel stereo. and it sounds great if the source is any good quality like 256 kb/s all the way to FLAC
What do you use as a Upstream Bluetooth Player?? Phone with mp3's...
Using Phone, laptop and tablet Mp3 as well as Pandora and TuneIn radio apps.
IS this powered by recharagble battery? Or does this need to stay plugged into a wall outlet?
It needs 5v power supply. AC wall adapter for charging a phone will work fine.
This has built in dac, will it only work through toslink out or with rca also?
All outputs are active.
Just rca
question... will that power plug USB fit into any ie apple usb charger plug?
All USB plugs are the same (for charging not always transfer data)
@@breakerbroke23 thanks.....they didnt have any on amazon.ca except the BLT-2 so ordered one off ebay via china
I noticed that Amazon CA doesn't always have the products that the US version has... Thant no good!
Thanks for trying. E bay strikes again:)
Cheers.
This is great but one fundamental flaw - there is no pairing mode option. Therefore it is possible for these to connect to an unknown device without any means to reset. This happened with mine after months of good use. It’s now unusable.
You can unplug BluDento for a while to see if the blue light flashes again.
Thanks for the feedback. A new model BluDento B2 will be released soon with a reset button.
You can contact BluDento support. We will help you.
MPOW make one very similar for under £40 UK. Has optical and 3.5mm Aux connections. Works well too and has on/off switch !
Link?
MPOW BH262A Bluetooth Transmitter & Receiver
That unit is no where near the quality of the bludento.......
breakerbroke23 All I know is that it works fine. Picks up signal quickly, has indicators to show signal type and I can switch it on and off. Works perfectly for less money.
@@rhiwderinraytube yes, but it has no DAC built-in. It is just a BT device. HUGE difference. The Bluedento will make your BT sound like CD quality.
Did anyone figure out how to reset the blu dento ? Mine stopped going into pairing mode.....and the light just stays On, and doesn't allow my phone ( or any phone) to pair to it anymore.....
1. Could you please disable Bluetooth on ALL your devices to see if BluDento flashes again ?
2. If no change, could you please delete BLT-HD on the Bluetooth setting of ALL your devices to see if BluDento flashes again ?
BluDento BLT HD or Fiio BTR3k for home use?
I have no user experience with the Fiio product. I looked it up and it looks good, I think it is more suited for portable operation, it can power headphones (does not look like it will drive full sized headphones enough due to its low power output rating ) and has balanced output, most all receivers are RCA (unbalanced) inputs and I don't much care for battery operated units for a permanent home installation. So overall I would go with the BLT. IMHO
@@breakerbroke23 Thanks for the reply! I think I will go with the BLT. I was contemplating the Audioengine B1, but from your comparison I think the BLT will be sufficient for my application. I will be streaming AAC anyway. Thanks again for the reply and helpful videos. Take care!
You mean Loosey-goosey?
One BIG Fault - There is no On/Off Switch! That means a flashing blue light unless you disconnect the power cable ! A simple on/off switch would have saved this annoying feature.
BoltAPureSource mine failed after a month! Receives Bluetooth but no sound from amplifier using either RCA plugs or Toslink optical...
If I am to connect this to a Denon AVR 1611 receiver and it(The bluetooth device) has not power cord(ac adapter), how would I get power to this unit? My Denon does not accept a usb wire. Thanks for any direction.
The Bludento comes with the micro USB. If you don't have one you will need to get a USB cord and a ac power adapter and plug that into the switched ac outlet on the rear of your stereo.
Thank you for the feedback. You can contact BluDento to get a free power adapter.
Buy it direct for $80 with free shipping. Why give Amazon a commission?
AND.... When you but direct from BD you can have the device ID name personalized. Use pro-mo code BB23 for another 10% off the price:)
100 bones and no power adapter?! what a jip
That's why it is not $189
You can contact BluDento to get a free power adapter if you don't own an idle one.
.
Overpriced for a weak looking chipset. There’s cheaper alternatives out there with a csr chip that can do the same if not better ⭐️⭐️ two stars
yeah man Burr-brown are known for shoddy circuitry hahahaha
