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 down-conversion of the
Hi-Res Audio content*, and allows
approximately three times more data** than
those other technologies to be transmitted over
a Bluetooth wireless network with
unprecedented sound quality, by means of
efficient coding and optimized packetization.
*
Excluding DSD format contents.
** 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.
