Xiaomi, QQ Music, and Savitech have collaborated to bring LHDC 5.0, a cutting-edge wireless audio technology, to consumers. The partnership aims to provide a “master tape-level” 24bit/192kHz audio quality that surpasses traditional high-definition audio.
Savitech Corp., the developer behind the LHDC™ Bluetooth high-quality technology protocols, has significantly reduced the difference in audio quality between wireless and wired audio devices. LHDC 5.0 delivers ultra-high-pitched sound quality, allowing users to enjoy the convenience of Bluetooth wireless audio without compromising sound fidelity. In December 2022, Xiaomi Buds 4 became the world’s first TWS earbuds to support LHDC 5.0, boasting a maximum support of 24bit/192kHz and Hi-Res Audio Wireless certification.
As the 24bit/192kHz music format becomes the mainstream standard for high-quality music, QQ Music, a leading streaming music platform under Tencent Music Entertainment Group (TME), introduced the industry’s first “Master Tape” technology in late 2022. The technology covers nearly a million “Master Tape level” audio sources and is revolutionizing the industry’s sound quality standards.
To ensure a top-notch wireless Bluetooth earphone audio experience, the high-definition Bluetooth audio codec protocol LHDC 5.0 is essential. Developed by Savitech, the protocol utilizes a fifth-generation core algorithm to raise wireless audio transmission resolution to “Master Tape level” 24bit/192kHz.
This partnership between Xiaomi, QQ Music, and Savitech LHDC 5.0 aims to establish a new era of audio excellence by unleashing the 24bit/192kHz quality of “master tape.” In doing so, it is expected to stimulate further growth and innovation in the audio technology sector.
