Are high end buetooth speakers usable?

[GreekGod22]

The JBL Xtreme 3 uses Bluetooth 5.1 and only supports the SBC Bluetooth codec. 

SBC has a bad reputation among the Bluetooth audio codecs for its high lossy compression algorithm and hence, overall lower audio quality. But in fact, SBC is a pretty flexible codec. It is able to support up to the 48 kHz sampling rate at 16-bit bit depth. It is also able to transmit data at rates as high as 345kbps.
