What about for cable style adapters? I thought you said you preferred them sometimes with BT adapters.

Do you mean 4.4 M to 2.5 F or 4.4 F to 2.5 M DD makes a really good compact 4.4 M to 2.5 F
For the other, I had Xinhs make me one and they now sell them.
I do have ddhifi's 4.4F 2.5M adapter (DJ44B). I was mainly asking about decent cable-style adapter options were available.
That said, if you have a link to the Xinhs model, that'd be nice to take a look at as well.

Thanks for the link. It's kind of hard to see the cable from the images - what's the material like?

The build quality is good. Never paid attention to what material it is in though.

Sound - Go Blu
Build, App and BT range - BTR5

Yes, but I still prefer Go Blu sound.

Some say BTR5 sounds digital, while Go Blue analog. Not precise obviously, but yes Go Blu sound is more pleasing, IMHO :)

I am trying to decide between the BTR5 2021 edition and the ifi audio go blu. Which device would you recommend.
If you can look pass the shortcomings of Go Blu, then it is an excellent choice as far as SQ goes. The key is to prioritize what is the most important to you, beyond SQ.

Yes, 'analog' sound that's free from any digital tint is our sound indeed. Thanks :beerchug:

The BTR3K itself doesn't have eq capability. Eq would have to be applied externally by the player app or phone's audio system.
Thank you!

I saw that the app offered an eq and hoped it would apply to everything played through the BTR3K, as with the Qudelix 5k. I’m not so sure I’ll get it, as I was really hoping for a way to eq YouTube and Amazon music. Really appreciate your help!
