Audison B-CON Bluetooth 5.0® Hi-Res Receiver Streaming Device

Ideal Choice For Streaming Audio From a Hi-Res Player!

Hi-Res Bluetooth 5.0® Receiver

The Audison B-CON is the only Bluetooth 5.0 player designed for automotive use that has obtained Hi-Res audio wireless certification from JAS (Japan Audio Society). B-CON is the ideal choice for streaming audio from a Hi-Res player (FIIO, Sony Walkman) and from the latest generation Android / Apple mobile devices.

B-CON is compatible with all audio formats and reaches maximum performance with uncompressed BT streaming (max 96kHz / 24bit, only with Android LDAC devices), both playing local files and with Apps that provide Hi-Res streaming (Tidal, Qobuz).

In keeping with Audison tradition, during the design phase particular attention was paid to volume management, a fundamental aspect for the search for the highest audio quality. The study by the Audison R&D team focused on the audiophile use of the Absolute Volume function. In the B-CON this manages the Master Volume of the DSP*, avoiding the loss of resolution that occurs when operating on the volume of the mobile device (mode: Absolute Volume Off), ensuring full dynamic range.

In the case of a voice call, the DSP automatically switches to the processor’s Master input * (by associating the mobile device with the B-CON and the car). At the end of the call it reverts back to playing the song previously paused, managing the car speakerphone without limitations.

Audison B-CON has a pass-through digital optical input (max 192kHz / 24bit) which provides a second auxiliary input to the active DSP when there is no BT streaming. The digital output (max 96kHz / 24bit) and the analog output (max 2 VRMS, S/N RATIO 100 dBA) allow the user to connect the B-CON to any audio device.

*Available on the new Forza line or on the bit One HD Virtuoso by connecting the ADC port.
