Hi there, i am perfectly happy with Deezer premium. Recently i start using the B&W Px8 headphone. Great. Now i notice the B&W app gives a slightly better, more detailed, sound on the headphone while using the same Deezer account. How does that happen? Does the B&W app do something with the Deezer file/data or does the B&W app use another level of AAC codec?

All on my iPhone 11.

Cheers Peter

Hi @Pmoonberg !

You have  professional headphones ,
and you can stream music direct from the B&W app to your headphones and have high-resolution audio performance .
B&W app  stream music direct from the app to your headphones and that's why is your sound is better .
 

I suppose both Deezer and B&W use bluetooth 5.0 on iPhone 11 and 5.2 on Px8. Is that right?And both use AAC codec of the iPhone?

Nice, thank you.

So the Deezer app en B&W app use the same AAC Codec and the same Bluetooth.
Do you know what the diffence could be?
Maybe another level of using AAC codec? Or another profile of Bluetooth (A2DP, AVRCP, HFP, HSP, BLE GATT)?
The difference in sound is significant, so understanding the difference in using AAC and Bluetooth can mean a nice upgrade in the Deezer app. When of course that will not be too difficult.
