i am going to buy earphones w/ aptX-LL. i just want to clarify something. 

does the host also need to support aptX-ll? I want to pair those with my laptop and use it for gaming. 

my laptop netowrk card is the intel 9560 (bt 5.0) and the earphones I will buy is the soundpeats engine.

Both devices need to support the aptX codec

Main speaker setup is now;

 

Mini DSP SHD Studio -> 2x Mola Mola Tambaqui DAC's (fed by AES/EBU, one feeds the left sub and main, the other feeds the right side) -> 2x Neumann KH420 + 2x Neumann KH870

 

(Having a totally seperate DAC for each channel is game changing for sound quality)

If you have an Intel Bluetooth/WiFi adapter you can download "Intel 8260 Bluetooth Audio Application" from Dell's website.  It works on my homebrew PC with a standard Gigabyte motherboard (GA-Z170n-gaming5)
