What is LDAC?
LDAC is an audio coding technology developed by Sony that enables the transmission
of High-Resolution (Hi-Res) Audio content, even over a BLUETOOTH connection. Unlike other BLUETOOTH compatible coding technologies such as SBC, it operates without any downconversion of the Hi-Res Audio content*1, and allows approximately three times more data*2 than those other technologies to be transmitted over a BLUETOOTH wireless network with unprecedented sound quality, by means of efficient coding and optimized packetization.
*1 excluding DSD format contents
*2 in comparison with SBC (Subband Coding) when the bitrate of 990 kbps (96/48 kHz) or 909 kbps (88.2/44.1 kHz) is selected
Note
- Depending on the network environment, there may be an interruption at the high bitrate transmission.
- Video viewing using LDAC is not recommended. A slight misalignment occurs in video and audio.
