    [FiiO BTR15/BTR5 2021/BTR5]Bluetooth DAC and Headphone Amplifier Discussion & Impressions Thread

    Can i plug this thing on my desktop speakers? Silly question probably but i'm a novice when it comes to audio electronics and i'm always afraid to damage them in unexpected ways.

    Any danger to the longevity of the battery if one uses this on USB on a PC?

    Shure-BT1 too loud, any good replacement?

    The Shure in question were already a gift to my father, heh. I have my own wired with the FIIO BTR5. So there's no cable i can buy to replace the one by Shure? Searching on google i see some off brand ones, but like i said i wouldn't want to run into the same issue. I wonder what the hell were...

    Shure-BT1 too loud, any good replacement?

    This problem was reported elsewhere in this forum and from what i see there appears to be no solution. BT1 is basically unusuable on anything besides a PC since the minimum volume level on any phone is way too loud. Also, the announcer voices of the device are also extremely loud so every time...

    Shure rmce-bt1 (Bluetooth Communications Cable)

    Well, ran into this issue as well. Announcer just likes to rape my ears and minimal volume on phone is too loud. No solution besides getting a new cable, right?

    [FiiO BTR15/BTR5 2021/BTR5]Bluetooth DAC and Headphone Amplifier Discussion & Impressions Thread

    I see, so i'll just recable the HD 600 and leave the IEM as they are. Is it safe to buy them from China? Some of them go for little: https://www.ebay.it/itm/324559827514?hash=item4b9145f23a:g:mxcAAOSwOktglNwJ Not sure where to get parts like this here in Italy.

    [FiiO BTR15/BTR5 2021/BTR5]Bluetooth DAC and Headphone Amplifier Discussion & Impressions Thread

    BTW this thing beats my LG V10, at least at first impression. Since i no longer have the V10 i can only go by memory but the sound just seems better, and that despite using my HD 600 out of the 3.5mm. One question about that. Does the 2.5mm output changes the sound quality or is it just about...

    Nevermind it works now. Must have been Windows 10 acting up. Bloody hell.

    [FiiO BTR15/BTR5 2021/BTR5]Bluetooth DAC and Headphone Amplifier Discussion & Impressions Thread

    Both. I think. Maybe it was still working in bluetooth even though i thought i was using it in USB i have to check.

    Shure SE215 wireless loud voice when connecting and disconnecting.

    Everytime i connect or disconnect from bluetooth some female voice screams in my ears at what seems to be full volume. Any way to lower the damn thing?

    I just got the BTR5 today, works fine on my phone, cheapo Samsung A10, with a pair of Sennheiser HD 600 out of the 3.5mm output, no less (wasn't hoping much for those headphones but it's a lot punchier than i thought. I gotta wonder what it would sound like if i got a balanced cable on the 2.5mm...

    How is the Xiaomi Redmi Note 10 Pro? I ordered the BTR5 but i still need a phone and this one caught my eyes since my carrier has a decent deal for it. Can't find any information on what kind of audio processor it's in it. I'm thinking of using it as a back up portable audio device. Spec sheet...

    Best Smartphone for audiophile Part II (Updated: Jan 2020)

    Well, i refuse to buy a phone that might break unexpectedly becuase who knows what kind of process it undertook during "rejuvination" (whatever the hell that means). So i went ahead and ordered the BTR5. Which i guess runs into the general sentiment here, that audiophile phones are becoming a...

    Fiio lc re not available in my country. Can be bought from China for 200+ euros. Meh, this is starting to get a bit aggravating. Cheapest balanced cables i can find for either the Sennheiser HD 600 or any IEM is around 50 euros. Was looking at the FD1 but having to replace the cable exceed what...

    So if i want to plug my Sennheiser H600 i need a balanced cable. That's... a bit disappointing.

    Best Smartphone for audiophile Part II (Updated: Jan 2020)

    Is there any budget IEMs that would fit this device? I'm thinking in the 100-150 euros range. Guess i could buy an adapter so i can use the 2.5mm output. Still odd that it makes a difference.

    Best Smartphone for audiophile Part II (Updated: Jan 2020)

    I'm a little confused here. Why 2.5mm? What's the difference with the 3.5mm output? Also, how do you feed the audio through USB while using a phone or a PC?

    Best Smartphone for audiophile Part II (Updated: Jan 2020)

    That seems interesting. Battery life being shorter than the V30 while playing is not an issue since i used my V10 as a phone as much as a music player and that thing barely lasted a day and i assume the V30 isn't much better considering the batter is pretty much the same. So with that thing i...

    Best Smartphone for audiophile Part II (Updated: Jan 2020)

    I think i'll pass then. May have to take a chance on a used V20 or V30. Or maybe i should just get a dedicated DAP and forget trying to get a phone. I'm checking the doc in the first page of this thread and so far most of those phones appear to hard to find new if they can be found at all. Wish...

    Best Smartphone for audiophile Part II (Updated: Jan 2020)

    Anybody has an opinion on the Samsung Galazy S20+? My LG V10 has died, and i was looking for a replacement. Both of my first options seem difficult to find new (at least here in Italy), namely, the V30+ and the G8X ThinQ. I'm afraid of buying used or refurbished because of burn in or shortened...

    Best alternatives to the JBL 305 for tighter budget?

    Well, just for reference, i decided to go with the PreSonus Eris E3.5 as the price was just too attractive. They sound a bit better live than on video (just got them obviously, hopefully they improve after break in) but they are in fact a bit tinny, but because of the transparency raising bass...
