There are a lot of options Tidel ,Deezer ,Qbuz ect... 16 to 24 bit is the plan.

I want to connect one of these to my DAC and stream .

option #1 at $200.00 https://audioengineusa.com/product_tech_specs/b1-bluetooth-music-receiver/

option #2 at 80.00 https://www.ebay.com/itm/True-HiFi-Bluetooth-Music-Receiver-aptX-HD-CSR8675-Alternative-to-Audioengine-B1/163473336758?_trkparms=aid%3D111001%26algo%3DREC.S EED%26ao%3D1%26asc%3D20160908105057%26meid%3Db1432 92a9728478693d0fe39a4e805e6%26pid%3D100675%26rk%3D 3%26rkt%3D15%26mehot%3Dpp%26sd%3D233137803535%26it m%3D163473336758&_trksid=p2481888.c100675.m4236&_trkparms=pageci%3Af0128374-34e9-11e9-b3d7-74dbd1806ab5%7Cparentrq%3A0a081a891690ac1a1d78430b fffeef90%7Ciid%3A1

Are these to recivers apples to apples or an apple vs. Lemon?
What are others doing? I am new to the idea of streaming from my phone a Galaxy 9+ with BT 5.0.
I guess blue tooth 5.0 is pretty good for streaming hi res music files Flac to be on point.

Anyone else doing this?

BT will invariably provide inferior SQ to using your phone/tablet at as a user interface over WiFi via an app.
If you have WiFi at home then for a cheap streaming option I would grab a Chromecast Audio before they disappear. The CCA will plug into a DAC via optical to lift its performance further.
If however you must use BT, why not just get a BT dongle that will plug into USB on your dac (assuming it has that facility)

been using hd bluetooth for a while now. its extremely good done right. hd phone and headphones is great. hd dongle from pc is great especially a long range class 1 like the avantree leaf.
