[FiiO BTR17/BTR7] True Lossless Bluetooth, Portable Bluetooth DAC and Headphone Amplifier BTR17 Is Officially Released!
Anyone else have an issue where the device doesn't turn on, after turned off for a while? Holding power on button for 5s doesn't turn it on immediatelly. I have to try again several times, usually pressing the play/pause know and then holding power button works. It's quite a hassle.- Yukicore

[FiiO BTR17/BTR7] True Lossless Bluetooth, Portable Bluetooth DAC and Headphone Amplifier BTR17 Is Officially Released!
I opted for this kind of solution. Good thing is that I can access the device without unclipping it, at expense of potentially stretching out clothing long-term. But good thing is that the short size of the clip makes it more safe not to scratch the BTR17 or damage its screen. Still, would have...- Yukicore

[FiiO BTR17/BTR7] True Lossless Bluetooth, Portable Bluetooth DAC and Headphone Amplifier BTR17 Is Officially Released!
After moving from BTR5 to BTR17, really missing a proper clip. Would like to see a case with clip, like BTR7. Was disappointed to see that this (for me) long awaited release comes with a snap fastner. And on top of that no lanyard included. It's like Fiio deliberately planned for us to drop the...- Yukicore

[FiiO BTR15/BTR5 2021/BTR5]Bluetooth DAC and Headphone Amplifier Discussion & Impressions Thread
Yes, I have, when 2 devices are actively paired, 3rd cannot be connected, but once one of them is disconnected any device is free to connect, sometimes I have to press any button on BTR5 before it allows getting connected to, but that's all the connectivity control it has. Do You own a BTR5 as...- Yukicore

[FiiO BTR15/BTR5 2021/BTR5]Bluetooth DAC and Headphone Amplifier Discussion & Impressions Thread
@FiiO Please advise on BTR5 discovery issue. I've asked Aliexpress official store (where I purchased it), they answered with "we will test first and contact you again", 2 weeks later no answer, and support e-mail, doesn't answer as well. When FiiO BTR5 is on, connected to my main device, ANY...- Yukicore

[FiiO BTR15/BTR5 2021/BTR5]Bluetooth DAC and Headphone Amplifier Discussion & Impressions Thread
First of all, thanks for the heads up, second of all, what volume level and for how long, and if 2.5mm (with dual AMP) or 3.5mm (with single AMP) output was used, and finally, third of all, what have You've been smoking, "... BTR5 without the clip too - the sound stage seems wider in addition to...- Yukicore

Reply to review by 'Yukicore' on item 'FiiO BTR5'
Maybe I'm wrong, but balanced cables sounded better separated on BTR5. Most likely due to the technical design of the device, not the cable itself. Sounds great either way, with either jacks, but obviously better with 2.5. I even purchased a new 2.5 cable just for this device, and oh so good...- Yukicore

My Fiio BTR5 is always discoverable, anyone can connect and play their music on my BTR5. I cant find a way to disable it being discoverable? This is bad.- Yukicore

USB-C to 3.5mm adapters (DAC) - Let's find the best
I have the non-Pro version of Meizu DAC, and through Windows using usb-c > usb-a adapter there is no popping issue at all. (In fact it seems there's significantly less popping than with my desktop mini DAC Fiio E10K, when there's sudden starts/stops of audio) When I connect it to my Google Pixel...- Yukicore

Hidizs Sonata HD DAC cable - new tiny and mighty DAC&
Do You have an issue when if I pause playback, then some time later when you try to resume with the in-line controls, they do not respond to play/pause? Volume keys work fine though, for me. Then, when I use the software notification for resuming the playback, volume runs back to 0, after that I...- Yukicore

Hidizs Sonata HD DAC cable - new tiny and mighty DAC&
Well, using the phone's mic is the smallest of the issues. The most infuriating issue is that the in-line controls often don't work. And when I unlock the phone, it slides volume all the way down, and sometimes the volume button on the phone don't work until I re-plug the DAC. It's 2019, and we...- Yukicore

Hidizs Sonata HD DAC cable - new tiny and mighty DAC&
With that I meant that the dongle doesn't redirect the microphone function to phone. So I have to unplug the headphones for the person to be able to hear me through the phone's microphone. Sorry if I didn't make that clear enough. Sure, compaining is in my veins, but I also mentioned that I...- Yukicore

Hidizs Sonata HD DAC cable - new tiny and mighty DAC&
My biggest problem using the Sonata DAC II on Pixel 2XL is that the in-line controls/microphone are inconsistent, it wasn't an issue with the included Pixel dongle, only the sound quality was. I tried all the firmwares, on A,B,v2 the inline microphone on Fiio F9 works, but on headphones without...- Yukicore

FiiO BTR3-The World' First Bluetooth Headphone Amplifier, SBC/AAC/aptX/aptX LL/aptX HD/LDAC/HWA (LHDC)
Yeah, I was thinking about this too, when I wrote the comment. I wonder if it's the same case with Fiio too. But to be fair, as much as it could be codec related more than range, I saw a video of a guy testing this, both of the Fiios were there, and BTR1K really had ~30m signal, while BTR3 had...- Yukicore
