How to Improve Headphone Audio Quality Using the LDAC Codec

  If you want to get the best sound quality from your Bluetooth headphones , you’ll want to make sure you’re using the LDAC codec . LDAC allows you to stream high-resolution audio wirelessly — giving you clearer, richer, and more detailed sound compared to standard Bluetooth codecs like SBC or AAC. In this guide, I’ll show you how to manually enable the LDAC codec on your headphones and your playback devices (like your smartphone or tablet) so you can enjoy that hi-res audio goodness right away. What Is LDAC and Why It Matters LDAC is a Bluetooth audio codec developed by Sony. Unlike regular Bluetooth, which compresses audio heavily, LDAC can transmit up to 990 kbps — which means less compression and higher sound quality . It’s especially noticeable when listening to lossless audio files or streaming services that support Hi-Res Audio . The difference? Cleaner vocals, more depth in instruments, and better overall clarity. Step 1: Check If Your Devices Support LDAC Before an...

Fly By Midnight Live in Manila 2026 – I Can’t Wait!

Update: 9/26/2025 - Venue & Where to Buy Tickets I still can’t believe it - Fly By Midnight is coming to Manila on January 19, 2026 as part of their “The Fastest Time of Our Lives” Asian + Australian Tour! When I saw the announcement, I literally screamed and jumped out of my seat. It’s been a long time since I felt this kind of excitement for a band, and I just had to share it here. How I Discovered Fly By Midnight I didn’t even know about Fly By Midnight until Apple Music randomly recommended them to me. I was just listening to my usual playlist - artists like Sombr, Luke Hemmings, and Royel Otis when their song “Different Lives” started playing. From the very first listen, I was hooked. Then came “In The Night”, and that sealed the deal for me. It’s rare for me to instantly connect with two songs in a row, but Fly By Midnight had that magic. Fast forward a few months later, and their tracks are now on repeat in my library. In fact, they’ve been my most-played artists for four s...

Nintendo Switch 2 Pro Controller Review: The Best and Coolest Controller I’ve Ever Used

I’ve been using the Nintendo Switch 2 Pro Controller for a few months now, and I can confidently say this might be the best controller Nintendo has ever made—and easily the coolest. After spending countless hours playing Mario Kart World , Splatoon 3 , and DK Bananza , here’s my honest take on why I think this controller is worth every penny. First Impressions Right out of the box, the Switch 2 Pro Controller makes a strong impression. The black and gray color combination looks premium, while the matte finish feels smooth and satiny to the touch. It’s also lighter than the original Switch Pro Controller—240 grams compared to 252 grams. That small difference makes it surprisingly more comfortable to hold, especially during long gaming sessions. My hands don’t get tired, which is a huge plus for marathon play. Controls & Feedback The analog sticks are easily my favorite feature. They glide smoothly with just the right amount of resistance, and unlike the original Pro Controller, t...
