Thank you for purchasing a Peachtree Audio BP!
At Peachtree Audio we design products that utilize a unique combination of analog
and digital technologies that work together to provide a compelling _ musio listening
experience. The Bt1 combines a high performance aptX Bluetooth receiver and
built-in Digital-to-Analog Converter (DAC) to add a high-performance wireless
inputto almost any playback system. The Bt1 also provides a digital audio outputs so
you can bypass the internal DAC if you are able to utilize a higher-performance
DAC available
in a connected device. In addition, the Bt1 can connect to up to 8
Bluetooth devices to expand the number of devices your system can.
Although compressed music files transmitted wirelessy over Bluetooth willprobably
never sound as good as uncompressed files sent over a wired digital audio
connection to a high-performance DAC, we think you will surprised by how good
this type of connection (especially if you utilize the digital audio output and
a higher-performance DAC like the ones provided in Peachtree Audio products) can
sound. In addition, you can enjoy the user interface of your Bluetooth device and the
freedom that a wireless connection provides. The performance and flexibility
of the Bt1
will expand the capabilities of your high performance music reproduction system and
allow you to enjoy all of your music to the highest regardless
of where it comes from.
This manual is a intended as a guide to the set up and of your Bt1• We sincerely hope
the Bt1 provides you with many years of music listening enjoyment.
Please visit our website at www.peachtreeaudio.com for the latest tips on getting the
best sound quality from the music stored or streamed from your computer and from all
of your sources. Please contact your dealer or us directly if you have any questions
that this manual does not answer. Also, now is a great time to go to our website and
register your Bt1•
Thanks again and happy listening!
