"aptX delivers substantially better quality over a wireless connection than the standard SBC Bluetooth codec and, being a point-to-point design, no Wi-Fi® network or complicated network key setup is required. aptX allows us to deliver on our ‘Sound First’ customer promise while also being able to offer the ultimate in user convenience."

"We wanted to create a universal wireless speaker with the kind of superb sound quality it’s generally assumed you could only achieve with a high-end speaker dock, but with all the advantages of a wireless speaker. No other readily available technology could offer us the degree of audio quality across Bluetooth that we achieve with CSR aptX. This combined with the superior engineering and build quality consumers have come to expect of Altec Lansing, has allowed us to deliver what we think is the industry’s best Bluetooth speaker."
