We’re talking about the SBC (Subband Coding) and aptX . In our opinion, the aptX and SBC support are only there to further sweeten the deal, but at the end of the day it’ll still boil down to the drivers. In all honesty, the DA-F61’s Php9,990 price tag puts it at a slight disadvantage against cheaper but clunky wireless speakers without NFC and fancy aptX codec. What we liked about it: * Premium look and build * Superior sound output * NFC and aptX support * Relatively loud with well-pronounced bass output What we didn’t like about it: * Proprietary charger * Exterior is prone to sratches * No USB Flash Drive support * Highs are bit recessed In addition to its NFC Pairing feature, this Bluetooth speaker is also imbued with a fancy audio codec called aptX.
