This is a fantastic bit of kit. Ive used the b50 to power a couple of speakers to replace a tv's inbuilt speakers. The amplification goes decently loud and to my untrained ear doesn't sound any different from a traditional AV receiver. The ARC connectivity makes it simple to setup and has worked flawlessly for.me allowing not.only the tvs audio to be passed to the B50 but, but also allowing the tv remote to control the volume and power on / off the device. Being able to connect a pair of Bluetooth headphones to.the B50 to.pick up on the TVs audio icing on the cake.
The only negative was that my device shipped with an older firmware version which has known issues which meant the audio volume was initially way too low and suddenly jumped up several decibels a few minutes later acompanied by some speaker pops. This was relatively easy to fix via a firmware update tool but access to a PC is required and you do need to be a little tech savvy.
Overall though, I cant fault the B50 if you are are looking for a stereo AV solution. Its well built, sounds good and has some really useful connectivity features, all for a price which is significantly cheaper than a traditional AV receiver.
Easier to install than Sonos. Spent hours getting Sonos to work the. Sent it back as the customer services wasn’t sure what was happening either. Bought this instead. Plugged it all in and it worked without me doing a single thing. And a third of the price
Delivery was flawless. Setup fairly easy and the packing was pretty nice.
Spotify Connect works perfectly, but I have problems with AirPlay 2 connections:
For some reason, the AirPlay 2 connection is stuttering a lot, which makes it impossible to listen to music and or connecting the LP10 receiver to my apple TV in order to stream its sounds to my loudspeakers which are connected to the LP10.
The problem is not my Wifi connection since I have multiple HomePods that work perfectly fine with AirPlay 2 connection.
So it must have something to do with the AirPlay 2 chip inside the LP10. Because AirPlay connectivity was the sole reason I bought the LP10, I have to return it unfortunately.
I am pleased with my A50+, it is perfect. But the remote control I received does not work at all. I tried both UM4 and LR03 batterries but they all no function. There is also no illuminating of the light on the remote control. Customer service responded very quickly! I received the replacement remote right away, and it works perfectly.
Thank you.
I really love this unit as it provides seamless lag free music via wifi through my house.
I have now 4 of these units and if there is one pertinent point I must make. it is that the inbuilt wifi receiver (only 2.4Ghz) is quite weak and loses connectivity frequently. To overcome this problem, I had to resort to purchasing a mesh wifi and connect every S10 to a dedicated LAN cable connection. Each unit is connected to a mesh system cube and overcomes the signal dropout problem.
Would like to see a dual 5Ghz/2.4Ghz wifi in future systems.
Thank You and keep up the good work！
There was a minor issue during shipping, but it was resolved smoothly. Customer service handled it very proactively.
I would recommend it to my friends
I purchase this streaming amp for my son and I can say that he is very happy with not only the sound but also how easy it was to connect and get up and running. The build quality is also good. This is a streaming amp that punches way about it price point and I highly recommend it
Great little product 👌
Clear Bluetooth sound and enough power
Thanks
Just got my BP50 yesterday, and so far it’s doing everything I was hoping for and more.
I’m writing a longer review because when I was looking into the BP50 myself, I honestly couldn’t find many detailed reviews from people actually using it. I’m from Iceland and I’ve been looking for a product like this for a very long time, so hopefully this helps someone else who is considering it. I usually never write reviews, but in this case I genuinely think they deserve one.
I saw people complaining about the ticking sound when switching audio channels, but it took me about 5 minutes to figure out. For example, when browsing Netflix titles, there can be an audio tick every time the sound comes on or off. In my case, it was just about figuring out the sound level settings between my studio speakers and the BP50. Once I got the settings right, no problem.
So far, it has exceeded my expectations for my personal use. I have 2x Yamaha HS8s connected to the BP50, with a normal HDMI cable connected to the ARC port, and I can control the volume directly with my LG remote.
The app on my iPhone also gives me full control over the EQ, so I can easily lower the bass, mids, or treble to my liking. The app is extremely responsive, and honestly, the whole thing feels way more expensive than it is.
The included remote is also great. You get EQ and volume control, source switching, and more without needing the app.
For the price, this thing is a gift. I haven’t noticed any decrease in sound quality, and I’m a bit of an amateur audiophile. Even when playing audio wirelessly from my phone through Bluetooth, I couldn’t notice any real loss in quality.
I also want to give a shoutout to Victoria from customer support. I got an automatic email while my order was still in transit, so I replied saying I hadn’t received it yet. Victoria replied very quickly and explained that shipping can take around 2–3 days longer to Iceland. Really nice and helpful customer service, and she definitely deserves some praise for the quick response.
The tracking was also surprisingly detailed. I could follow my order pretty much the whole way with live updates, which made the shipping process a lot better, especially for an international order.
In the end, it’s a super bargain. I’ve tried many different setups, and for my use, this gives me by far the most.
Don’t spend thousands on something when you can get something simple that works like the Arylic BP50.
Very impressed and very satisfied. I almost never leave reviews, but this one deserved it.
Absolute mental piece of equipment for the price!! Recomended 100% for BT and different cable connections from tv to dj equipment towards a set of speakers!
The speaker delivers outstanding sound quality with premium build and performance, making it one of the best all-in-one speakers available.
I'm only using it to stream Spotify from my phone, I have it connected to an older Yamaha RX model via optical cable, but it's GREAT. Reliable connection, no skipping or dropping. I had a Wiim mini that was horrible, dropped the connection constantly, I returned it and bought this and am happy so far. I'm using Wifi. It has an ethernet port for a wired connection which I might investigate if any Wifi issues come up.
Amazing device. Works as intended. Very small but strong enough that it can drive my 2x 50w speakers. Only reason, why I would give it 4.8 stars is that it takes it around 20 seconds to get from standby to ON via hdmi arc signal.
Thia is a very good preamp especially for the money. But even more impressive was the customer service when I had questions about delivery and country of origin. The responses were timely and very polite. This is much appreciated. The hardware is ok. I've had issues with the hdmi-arc turning off and not reconnecting but have temporarily gotten it going again. It seems to lose the audio regularly. I am using the arc connection but also the optical input in case the sound drops on arc. The optical connection is solid and haven't had any issues there but you don't get tv remote functions that way. So far I am happy with the purchase and very grateful for the attentive customer response.
Update! Changing overall rating from 4 to 5! I believe I found the problem with HDMI arc not working. It is not a product fault. Nor TV. I moved another HDMI plug in to a different port and voila! Have all sound through HDMI ARC now. This was on the TV ports, not the arylic BP50. Now it is doing what I bought it for. Very happy with it!
Great amp, works perfectly with my TV via ARC. Sounds awesome with two bookshelf speakers and an active sub. Great value
They are a really good streamer who does high-quality work. I use their stream purely as background content, connected to my DAC via an optical cable. It works great with Tidal and Foobar
The S10 is a fantastic unit and definitely a great replacement for an AirPort Express. However, if you are matching with other AirPort expresses within your home/establishment, consider a step up to ensure capability of Airplay 2. This will avoid having sync issues. Again, if all you are using is one or the S10 exclusively, you will be fine. Great unit, never ever connectivity issues, and plays extremely well with iTunes and Remote.
LP100 is as good as any other streamer/DAC I have owned or tested and has a level of simplicity in daily use that’s very convenient. There are no software hiccups or issues observed with streaming services or settings, everything worked very nicely.
Most importantly (for me):
- NAS indexed my 10000+ media library without sweat with all media details and images, and playback was just perfect
- DAC or RCA Line Out performance was extremely good
- eARC (and CEC) worked perfectly
- Bluetooth Remote Control, a better one
- I have seen couple of software/firmware updates in past 1 month, so seems like Arylic are actively updating stuff.
RECOMMENDED
