About apt-X


JayBird products offer apt-X, CD quality audio over Bluetooth. APTX focuses on two very simple principles:

1. Acoustical integrity
2. Low latency

apt-X has been associated with professional audio applications for 20 years, with over 20,000 radio and TV stations worldwide, broadcasting content with the help of apt-X.

Integrating apt-X into Bluetooth headphones delivers pristine CD quality audio and a more fulfilling user experience. It does this by more efficient compression and decompression than standard SBC Bluetooth. It needs less bandwidth and avoids the typical packet loss which causes white noise and loss of audio quality.
