The Arylic BP50 is a remarkably versatile compact hub, pairing clean, natural sound with HDMI ARC, phono, subwoofer control and two-device Bluetooth transmission. Audiophile Heaven found its presentation detailed and low-noise, while United States of Analog enjoyed its punchy, lively everyday performance. For affordable TV and 2.1 systems, its deep connectivity and exceptional value make a compelling combination.
What Reviewers Are Saying
Pros
Extensive connectivity includes HDMI ARC, phono and line inputs, USB DAC/playback, digital outputs, subwoofer output, and Bluetooth transmit/receive.
Clean, detailed and natural entry-level sound with very low background noise, particularly via USB DAC.
Bluetooth transmission is reliable and can serve two headphones or speakers, with reviewers reporting clear sound and no dropouts.
Outstanding functionality and performance for the $99 price point.
&
Cons
The internal DAC is less dynamic, resolving and naturally defined than an affordable external DAC.
The phono stage is basic, and the reviewer found its base-management adjustments less useful beyond low crossover settings.
The unit can produce a loud pop when switched off, so the connected amplifier should be powered down first.
The finish can scratch easily with normal placement or handling.
SOUND QUALITY PERFORMANCE 84/100
Reviewers find the BP50 clean, natural and enjoyable for an entry-level control hub, with low background noise and a reasonably wide presentation. Its internal DAC is not portrayed as a high-end source, however: one reviewer found it flatter, less dynamic and less naturally defined than an inexpensive external DAC.
Transparency Resolution
84/100
Audiophile Heaven reports a clean, detailed presentation with very little background noise, calling USB use essentially free of audible noise. Cheap Audio Man found the internal DAC less resolving and less separated than an external SU-1, while United States of Analog simply found it good for the money.
Tonal Balance Musicality
85/100
The BP50 is described as natural, distortion-free and generally well judged rather than overtly warm or analytical. Its internal DAC was said to have a slight sizzle, and the reviewer preferred the flat EQ setting, but the overall character remains listenable and appropriate to its intended system level.
Dynamics
83/100
One reviewer found Steely Dan punchy and lively, and Audiophile Heaven heard more detail and dynamics over Bluetooth transmission than from a computer connection. Against the external SU-1 DAC, though, Cheap Audio Man heard a flatter, less extended and less dynamic experience, with more limited volume range.
Soundstage Imaging
84/100
Audiophile Heaven describes the soundstage as nicely wide rather than narrow. There is little direct discussion of image precision, depth or layering, while Cheap Audio Man notes that instrument separation is not a particular strength of the internal DAC.
Assessments of Build Quality, Usability, and Overall Propositions.
Build Quality
83/100
United States of Analog calls the aluminum case solid and handsome. Audiophile Heaven cautions that the finish scratched easily even during initial placement, so it appears smartly made for the price but benefits from careful handling.
Features Connectivity
94/100
The BP50 is unusually versatile: it combines line and MM/MC phono inputs, optical and HDMI ARC, USB playback and USB DAC functions, subwoofer output with crossover, analog and digital outputs, plus Bluetooth receive and transmit. Reviewers particularly praise its ability to transmit aptX-family Bluetooth audio to two headphones or speakers, and report that HDMI ARC power and volume synchronization work well.
Value for Money
95/100
At $99, reviewers repeatedly regard the BP50 as an exceptional buy for its unusually extensive connectivity and competent sound. Cheap Audio Man calls it a heck of a deal at $100 and a crazy deal at $80, while Audiophile Heaven says it offers more inputs and outputs than expected at such a pocket-friendly price.
