i know what a balanced output is. i am saying that there are dedicated audiophile-grade, battery powered bluetooth receiver DACs with balanced output, which you can plug any wired headphones into, usually through a 2.5 or 4.4mm jack so you don’t blow up your cheap pairs. they usually come with a built-in mic and a lapel clip so you can use them to take calls. FiiO is a big brand that makes these, but there’s a whole market.
Well, but that wasn’t the use case I was talking about at all. I was talking DAC + wired headphone vs. Bluetooth headphones.
You’re talking about wired headphones with a Bluetooth DAC. Entirely different thing.
The only difference in that setup is the connection between PC and DAC. USB or Bluetooth. I could connect my Arya Organic to a Bluetooth DAC, of course. Nonetheless, you completely misunderstood my entire point.
usually if you use bluetooth headphones it’s because you want wireless headphones. you were saying that it wasn’t possible to get the same quality when using bluetooth and i’m telling you it’s entirely possible. you weren’t talking about a usecase to begin with, only that you were not happy with the headphones you had tried.
Again, when I said it wasn’t possible to get the same quality using Bluetooth, I meant using Bluetooth headphones, not a Bluetooth DAC and wired headphones. And this is the second time I’m explaining that to you, not going to waste my time doing it three times.
Then you didn’t even really read what I said. I even described the two different kinds of signal paths I was talking about in my first response to you.

i am not getting that from any of your earlier comments.

This has been a waste of time. Have a nice day.
