Review on Avantree DG60 Long Range Bluetooth 5.0 USB Adapter: Superior Sound Wireless Dongle for PC, Mac, PS4, PS5, Linux - aptX Low Latency, Headphones & Speakers Compatible by Sean Maples

Revainrating 2 out of 5

Very good range increase but confusing instructions

I needed to find a way to use my BT headphones with my desktop PC so I ordered them at the same time. I figured out the sound very quickly - I immediately connected to the Iteknic IK-BH007, but connecting the microphone eluded me during the day. There's a switch on the DG60 labeled Talk/Music, but oddly the instructions only say that you have to double-tap the knob to switch between the two. It might not be right, but it looks like the physical switch doesn't matter and the only way to switch to speaking and use the mic is with a double tap. As soon as I did that and ignored the switch, the mic worked immediately. The sound quality of both headphones and when I found out the microphone was very good. Pairing worked right away, just remember to look for Avantree in the list of audio devices, not the type of headphones or speakers. But the main reason it compares to other BT USB adapters is the range and it works great. Possibility to leave the room and go to the deck through the glass door with good continuous sound. Fiddled with antenna placement to achieve this. So in general I'm very happy when I found out.
