Cambridge Dacmagic plus

Just started using the Cambridge Dacmagic plus. It has a wireless audio receiver that will hook to my laptop. Has anyone used this and if so, how well did it work?

Thanks.

Last night, was finally able to get the fastest speed setup to work. I want to believe I can hear 24bt/192k, I really do. It is an amazing dac. Listened to some classical guitar and some blues, both amazingly crisp and as if they were sitting next to me in a music hall.

Still wonder if anyone has used the dacmagic plus with the wireless dongle thing setup. I am really thinking of getting it to go wireless.

Thanks.
 
I have that Bluetooth adapter, paid $100 in 2021. Comparing to USB it sounds less detail. So I use it only for streaming audio from TV.

I think one of the reason for quality loss is a weak wired cable between the bluetooth and the main board, I figured that out while fixing my DacMagic. You can see that module on my video:

Another assumption is that aptx protocol is not really lossless, or at least it does not transfer bit perfect.

My final setup - I bough mini Windows PC and plugged it to DAC via USB, and music I can control from my Mac or Android via Remote Desktop and bluetooth remote control.
