Advance Paris WTX500 Bluetooth Receiver aptX

The Advance Paris WTX500 is a compact Bluetooth receiver with aptX and AAC (CD quality) that wirelessly connects your computer, tablet or smartphone to an amplifier or active speakers. Plug in, pair, done – no extra cable needed from the sofa to the rack.

Why the WTX500?

Because not every music source deserves a cable. With aptX and AAC, the WTX500 transmits music from your phone or laptop in near-CD quality instead of the compressed standard Bluetooth format – a noticeable difference compared to the cheap dongles many devices already come with.

Who is the WTX500 for?

For anyone who wants to easily add Bluetooth to an existing system that doesn't have its own – for example an Advance Paris amplifier from the Classic series. If you need a digital output for an external DAC instead, the WTX1100 is the right alternative.

Our verdict

An uncomplicated, affordable entry into wireless music listening – just right for the quick connection in between.
