Audison B-CON II Hi-Res Bluetooth Receiver — LDAC up to 24-bit/96 kHz with B-CON Go App Control

The Audison B-CON II is a Hi-Res Bluetooth 5.0 receiver for car audio that streams up to 24-bit/96 kHz with the LDAC codec. It carries the Japan Audio Society's Hi-Res Audio Wireless certification. It connects to Audison Forza DSP amplifiers and the bit One HD Virtuoso, passes through a digital optical input, and gives the audio system Absolute Volume control from the phone. The B-CON Go app (iOS and Android) controls the receiver and compatible Audison devices.

Key Features

• Bluetooth 5.0 + EDR with A2DP 1.3 and AVRCP 1.6 profiles
• LDAC streaming up to 24-bit/96 kHz, with about 3x the bitrate of standard Bluetooth (Hi-Res with Android LDAC devices)
• Japan Audio Society Hi-Res Audio Wireless certification
• Absolute Volume: the phone controls the master volume of a compatible Audison amplifier or processor while the signal stays at full quality
• Pass-through digital optical input (up to 192 kHz/24-bit) as a second source, plus optical and RCA analog outputs
• Firmware and Bluetooth updates directly through the B-CON Go app, with no connection to a DSP needed

Power and Technical Highlights

The B-CON II works across -20°C to +85°C and measures about 90 x 60.4 x 23 mm. It uses USB-C connectivity, and its LED shows the connection state (yellow while streaming at 96 kHz with LDAC). It accepts PCM input up to 192 kHz/24-bit on its optical input, and in pass-through mode the RCA stereo output is disabled. Absolute Volume works only when connected to the bit One HD Virtuoso or an Audison Forza DSP amplifier.

Ideal For / System Fit

• Streaming Tidal, Qobuz or local Hi-Res files from an Android phone with LDAC
• Audison Forza bit and bit One HD Virtuoso systems that need wireless streaming and remote control
• Adding Bluetooth to an OEM or aftermarket upgrade that has an optical or analog input

Hi-Res streaming needs an Android device with LDAC; other devices stream at standard Bluetooth quality, and Absolute Volume needs a compatible Audison amplifier or processor.

Installation Note

Connect the B-CON II to a compatible Audison processor or amplifier by optical or RCA, power it, then pair your phone. The B-CON Go app handles control and updates. A professional installer is recommended for hidden installs.

What's Included

1 x Audison B-CON II Hi-Res Bluetooth receiver (confirm the supplied cables with your supplier)

Precautions

• Hi-Res (96 kHz) streaming works only with Android LDAC devices
• Absolute Volume is available only with the bit One HD Virtuoso or Audison Forza DSP amplifiers
• In pass-through mode, the RCA stereo output is disabled
• Keep within the -20°C to +85°C operating range and mount securely
