Arylic BP50 Bluetooth 5.2 aptX HD Music Receiver for Home Stereo with HDMI ARC, Phono in, RCA Optical Output for AV Receiver or Stereo Preamplifier and GO Control APP.

A miracle! It has taken me less than an hour to figure out if this device is a keeper. And I must say, it absolutely is! I was running my computer audio out to a DAC that connected to my stereo receiver. Sound quality was very good, but the I loaned the receiver out to my son and, well, you know how that goes. So, I happen to have a stereo amp I figured I'd hook it up to but, oops, no subwoofer connection. So, now I needed an intermediary device with SW out port. A streamer didn't make sense since I already have the audio from the computer. And go figure, many DACs, at least the ones around the $100 mark, don't have a SW out port. Then I ran into this little gem. Has a dac, preamp, and almost all types of connections, including SW out. I have to order a USB-C cable so, for now, I have it running off the toslink from my sound card. When I put my ear up to the speaker to listen for what I was sure would be some signal level noise, I was amazed! There was none! It's quiet as a church mouse. Even running music through it via phone BT and the app, no signal noise! The app, by the way, is great. Besides bass and treble settings, it has an 8 frequency EQ and you can set and save your own custom settings or pick from the presets. And as if the phone app isn't enough, they even throw in a full function remote, which I'm thinking will just stay in the box for now. The music sounds fantastic and you really can't beat the price. In fact, I couldn't find anything out there that comes near the features for even double the price. So, what's not to like about this little gem? It's a streamer (via input device apps), it's a dac, it's a premp and all the connections are pretty hip. I would absolutely recommend this product to anyone. Enjoy! Update 3 weeks later: The audio has been cutting out in the RCA out channels every 2 hours or so. You have to unplug, then replug the power cord back in. Problem fixed. I just discovered that others have cited this issue. I was going to return this item and repurchase the same item for fresh 30 day return period, but now I think I'll just keep it and live with it. Other than this, no complaints.

I'm using the DAC c port connection to my computer on the BP50 preamp . Issue is, Audio cuts out suddenly and often while using the DAC connection. Temporary fix is I have to turn the unit off and then back on again to get the sound to come back on. this issue keeps repeating every 5 min or so for me. depends if I'm listing to music or watching a youtube video or what ever. I read on the Arylic forum site that other people are experiencing the same issue. I contacted customer service through email they admitted they are aware of the problem and said they will send me a new unit if I send the unit back to them. they want me to send the unit all the way back to China. they will not answer my question if the new unit they are going to send me has the issue fixed. my guess they have not fixed the issue and I'm going to have the same issue with a new. and yet they continue to sell these units without warning. Bought through Amazon. my email communications has been going on for over a week ,I'm now 2 days past my window of return.

I bought this for it's ARC functionality. It generally works well. Occasionally the volume will cut out and require a "reboot". The iphone app is very easy to use, and usefull. You don't have to login in to use it. It gives you an option to skip that. I like how versitile and straightforward it is. Bluetooth range apears to be good, even in a closed cabinet. If I last had it set to bluetooth, and it goes into standby mode, it will not automatically detect the TV signal and switch to ARC if that's the how it's to be used next. I have to switch it to ARC. Not great, but not a deal breaker. Originally I ordered the integrated amp version of this, but it did not supply nearly enough volume. I sent it back and got thi pre-amp, and paired it with a Fosi V3 amp. That combination works much better. I can just leave the amp on all the time - it's silent. It would have been nice to have other choices for an ARC enabled small (pre) amp, but this one works pretty well.

My initial thoughts on this unit are all very positive. I bought this unit to output all my devices to my Fosi v3 amp powering 2 bookshelf speakers. So far I’ve been using the Bluetooth for music from my phone, and hdmi arc for tv cec controls to output all my sound to this unit then the amp. My tv remote controls the sound levels through arc perfectly. I’ve also tested optical in and rca in with no issues. I do like that the display lights are bright enough to see but not bright enough to disturb movie watching, and standby mode doesn’t bother me either. Unless I’m gone for long periods of time this unit doesn’t get physically switched off. I have not used the app yet to control or modify and settings but I’ll likely get around to that eventually. The remote control can change the bass and treble for quick adjustments between movies and games/music so I’ve mostly used that. Other thoughts: Unit runs quite cool and responsive Very small and sleek compared to a full size Av receiver, which is perfect for space limited areas. I’ve read this unit’s outputs are all in 2 channel stereo which would be a bummer for future upgrades but I cannot confirm that at time of writing. The remote didn’t come with batteries! All in all this unit does everything I need it to and would recommend it to someone who doesn’t need an amplifier built in, just don’t expect this unit to compare to a $1200 receiver, for $100 it was a great buy.

La verdad por las conexiones y el precio no está mal buena calidad y configuraciones si subió un poco la calidad del sonido vía Bluetooth y fibra óptica No me gusto que viniera abierto a lo mejor por la aduana pero no está bien q no llegue sellado Me falta probar el subwoofer después actualizo

L’Arylic BP50 è un piccolo pre-amplificatore che si adatta a una vasta gamma di scenari d’uso: Offre un’ottima soluzione per integrare la connettività Bluetooth, sia in ricezione che in trasmissione. È ideale anche per coloro che cercano di connettere dispositivi moderni a sistemi audio più datati, grazie alle sue molteplici opzioni di input e output. Gli utenti con una collezione di vinili apprezzeranno l’ingresso fono, rendendo il BP50 un’aggiunta preziosa a un impianto hi-fi esistente. In un contesto domestico, il BP50 può servire come fulcro per un sistema di intrattenimento multimediale, collegando facilmente televisori (tramite HDMI ARC), lettori CD, e dispositivi USB. La sua capacità di collegarsi a svariate configurazioni di altoparlanti e la sua uscita subwoofer attiva lo rendono un’opzione eccellente per migliorare l’esperienza audio di film e musica. L’app GO Control di Arylic offre un’esperienza personalizzabile, mentre il telecomando e la manopola multifunzione rendono il BP50 facilmente accessibile anche per chi non è particolarmente esperto. Il BP50 di Arylic si distingue per un design rinnovato e una costruzione solida. Pur condividendo la forma e le dimensioni con il modello B50, il BP50 si rinnova esteticamente con un pannello frontale lucido di un nero profondo, che nasconde gli indicatori di stato visibili solo quando attivati. Questo dettaglio conferisce al dispositivo un aspetto più pulito e raffinato, aumentando la percezione di qualità nonostante si tratti di un modello più economico rispetto al B50. La manopola del dispositivo, con una finitura texturizzata lungo i bordi e più liscia nella parte anteriore, offre una presa migliore e aggiunge un tocco retrò. La costruzione interamente in metallo del BP50, compresi la manopola e l’interruttore di accensione, conferisce al dispositivo una sensazione di robustezza e durata. Tuttavia, è da notare che i piedini di sostegno, pur elevando l’unità per migliorare la dissipazione del calore, non offrono un sistema antiscivolo. L’Arylic BP50 sorprende per la sua notevole varietà di opzioni di connessione e controllo. Nonostante il suo prezzo accessibile, offre funzionalità di Bluetooth sia come ricevitore che come trasmettitore, una caratteristica rara persino in modelli di DAC/amplificatori di fascia alta. Tra le opzioni di input, troviamo: Ingressi RCA HDMI ARC USB Ingresso fono Bluetooth (supporto fino a due dispositivi) Ingresso ottico Per quanto riguarda gli output, il BP50 include: Uscite stereo RCA Subwoofer (SW attivo) Coassiale Ottica Trasmettitore Bluetooth (fino a due dispositivi contemporaneamente). Questa versatilità lo rende una soluzione quasi universale per diversi setup audio. In termini di controllo, il BP50 offre tre modalità: tramite telecomando IR, tramite l’applicazione mobile Arylic (GO Control) e con una manopola multifunzione. Mentre il telecomando presenta indicatori ben etichettati per una facile accessibilità alle funzioni principali, l’app offre il livello più completo di personalizzazione del dispositivo. In conclusione, l’Arylic BP50 rappresenta un’ottima scelta per chi cerca un preamplificatore versatile, ricco di funzionalità, ma a un prezzo accessibile. La sua costruzione robusta e il design elegante si abbinano a una gamma impressionante di opzioni di connessione e controllo. Sebbene ci siano alcune limitazioni, come l’assenza di uno schermo frontale e la sensazione economica del telecomando, questi aspetti sono facilmente superabili considerando il rapporto qualità-prezzo offerto. Le sue specifiche tecniche, che includono supporto Bluetooth 5.2, una vasta gamma di codec supportati (tra cui TX – aptX HD) e connettività flessibile, lo rendono un dispositivo estremamente adatto sia per appassionati che principianti. Benché l’alta fedeltà audio rappresenti un ambito più avanzato, questo dispositivo si distingue come un’eccellente introduzione al mondo dell’audio di qualità.

Product arrived in good condition. This preamplifier looks great but a few things on this device won't work like optical, the app won't recognise the device despite Bluetooth being switched on (reset both devices on several occasions.) The only connection that works is the HDMI Arc. I just don't have the time to send the device back so for now I'm going to keep hold of it as I can play my media through HDMI Arc at least. Sound quality is quite impressive plus it does look quite smart and has a premium feel to it. Just a real shame the other connections won't work. Easy to install, just plug and play. Small and compact to fit in tiny space if needed. Overall the device is great for the price despite some faults but I'm happy with it for now. My opinions about the product that I received are not in reflection to the seller in any way as the product was delivered on time and in great condition. It was my decision to keep the product.

Le produit respecte les fonctionnalités décrites, il a une connexion très puissante et se connecte immédiatement à toutes les appareils, soit en Bluetooth que en câble optique. Le passage entre les différentes fonctionnalités et rapide et sans poser des problèmes. Le contrôle du volume se fait par la télécommande. Possibilité de connecter plusieurs appareils en même temps Via Bluetooth.

C'est regrettable après en possession de 3 jours, l'appareil ne fonctionne plus et reste toujours figé en Standby. Sinon il donne très bien le son et les connexions sont assez complet. Dommage de ne pas l'avoir.
