Okay, well never mind you guys. Android 11 is bonkers. For anyone who may be going through my pains in the future or atm: now changing your codec in developer options is not sufficient. You have to go into bluetooth settings -> connected btr5 device settings -> enable LDAC

@FiiO on Android 11 (in my case One UI 3.1, Samsung Galaxy S21), the BTR5 is not recognizable as 24-bit supporting and LDAC capable. It is recognized only as supporting SBC @ 16-bit. There were changes in this area of OS in Android 11 and it seems like you guys failed to comply. Please take a...

Wow, so will the power by default literally bypass the battery as long as the voltage is detected to be >4.6V, to double check? Or do I have to set something.

Hi @FiiO, is it possible to use BTR5 as a USB DAC in a way that bypasses the battery? In order to prevent battery degradation when using it mainly as a PC USB DAC I would prefer it to not use the battery at all, and instead pull the juices straight from the input like a DAC without battery. Is...

What are your eartips of choice for this?

Yeah, that's where I am also gravitating to after this few days of intensified research. Would you say that FD1 are perhaps more resolving then L3 though? If they are different and seem to perhaps be an improvement in clarity I think I will strongly consider spoiling myself even more and giving...

Yeah, I guess my biggest concern is how it will perform with songs like this one, and that's probably because I am not yet sure what is required to perform best with them :p My wild guess would be a lot of what people name as detail, clarity, resolving

Unless it is better to go with the FD1 all together and drop Legacy 3's? Since FD1 is 80 USD for me at Ali (Europe here) I think I can afford only one of them atm together with the rest of the stuff that I want to get. And I am reading some really nice things about the cleanliness of FD1, which...

Got it, thanks guys :) If blons are that redundant and do not make much sense then I will probably indeed leave them out then, and get L3 + a QDC 2.5 mm balanced cable for them to connect to BTR5 for now. Thinking about tossing in a balanced 2.5 female to single 3.5 male adapter like this one...

Thanks, that's very informative as well! I totally thought these square extensions would maybe fit into the connector of blons, love that beginner tips :p Edit: that does not make sense, that would never work :P

Thanks a ton for the response, that's very helpful! If someone has any other take I am more than willing to read. As to your question - my story is I bought Tin T4's as my first IEM and fell in love with it - mainly because of the improvement in detail, clarity, that I seem to value a lot...

Hi guys, hi forum! So I am a bit new to this, to begin with, and kind of lost it doing my research on my next purchase which would include these (L3). I was aiming for Legacy 3's together with BL-03 and Fiio BTR5, and hoped to get one balanced cable for BTR5 that would fit both L3 and Blons (I'm...
