BluDento BLT-2

The inbuilt dac is great sounding and makes for flexible pairing into a good separates system. The optical out is a bonus and gives you a choice of decoding - in my case a Cambridge audio amp. Sometimes Dento’s burr brown dac is best , others the Wolfson in the Cambridge , all very subjective but the dento sounds “fun” and has pace and detail. (Tested with Spotify)

Easy to set up and music sounds great. Bought to replace my old, cheaper one and noticed the better sound quality immediately. Very happy.

Very good sound quality, streets ahead of the cheap receiver I had before. More volume too, so I don't have to turn the hi-fi amplifier up to a ridiculous degree as I did for the old one. However, I'm only giving it four stars for two reasons. One, when the sound begins after more than a few seconds' pause, there is a slight hiccup at the beginning. Most music tracks have a tiny moment of silence at the start, so this is not too annoying. It makes a mess of system notification sounds, but who cares about those? Second, more serious, and really unbelievable, is that it doesn't have an on-off switch! You have to undo its little USB micro B power connector to switch if off. I have ordered an inline micro B switch -- yes, these do exist but note that they only transmit power, not data -- so I shall be OK when it comes. But what a stupid omission.

Bought a separate plugtop power supply (mini usb). Would be nice to have that as an optional extra, especially as my old stereo does not have a usb port. Easy to plug up and make BT connection, superb sound quality, and BT range is excellent. Device receives perfectly from anywhere in my house.

Super easy to pair and wire ( I use coax ) Sound quality is great with no loss of volume. Only a couple of day use so far but very pleased so far.

I use this device to give a new streaming lease of life to my very revealing but ageing Creek amp and Monitor Audio Bronze speakers. The result is fantastic - very good sound quality! Buy one!

Sounds better than my previous receiver. A little more expensive but worth it.

I have a Samsung 65MU7000 TV that, like most modern screens, has no phono output for wired headphones and the BluDento True Hi-Fi Long Range Bluetooth Receiver seemed ideally suited to provide one via its RCA output. With all the correct modes set, I found the volume at the headphones to be barely acceptable at maximum output from the TV on any the three models of headphones I tested and I found the audio lag from the BluDento to be only borderline acceptable. In comparison, the (relatively) cheap Bluetooth headphones that I tried in the same set-up were good at half volume and with no lag at all. The Bluetooth aspects of the kit were excellent at the 4 metre distance of my set up and I could not hear any signal noise. These comments apply only to my use of the kit as a provider of signal for headphones and I did not use the kit for its primary purpose as a receiver to give signals to speakers.
