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

    Same here. Unlike on the BTR5 which actually does display the codec in the device image.

    The way this was worded made it sound like it's a collab between CCA and HBB. Made me do a double take.

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

    I just updated today to the latest firmware version (2.2) and started having this issue myself. I didn't have this problem before updating. Now my BTR15 switches itself on whenever I plug it into the charger. Anybody having this issue on. V.2.2?

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

    This doesn't happen on my BTR15. I have had instances though where I thought I already turned it off before plugging it in to charge, and ended up having it stay powered on and connected to my phone the whole time. I believe this was because I was used to the comparatively shorter press and hold...

    BTR15 supposedly supports the aptx-LL codec (low latency), though that's not available on iPhone.

    Which kilobuck IEM sounds 1000x better than my PR3? I can't even comprehend that level of sound quality. My poor brain might explode.

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

    Got my BTR15 in the mail today. No issues so far that I've noticed in the first 3 hours or so of use. It had 60% of battery out of the box, currently sitting at 40%. Will be comparing SQ to my BTR5 2021 but first impressions are they sound fairly similar, just a bit louder at same volume...

    Just got my PR3 in the mail today. It's a little easier to drive than my PR2 (PR3 at around 40% on my DX1 with high gain is about same as the PR2 at 55%). Male and female vocals are a little more forward on the PR3, which are a little warmer on the PR2. Early impressions, I think I like it...

    Maybe, but TDM has never liked planar IEMs in general.

    Curious about this, I wasn't aware of the stealth rev. The ZS10 Pro X I purchased off of alix earlier this month still appears to have the 1 dual and 2 single BAs.

    I quite like the case that comes with the quintets. They are just the right size and are protective enough for my purposes. Anyone know where I can get some just like it?

    Thanks! The screen and aesthetics of it are very tempting, but if the SQ isn't much better than what I'm currently getting out of my DX1, I might skip over it. I'm also considering the topping DX3 pro+.

    How does this compare to the topping dx1 in terms of sound quality?

    My hexas have been basically retired by my quintets.

    Reply to review by 'dirtdawg' on item 'Fosi Audio DS2 (ESS Version)'

    I have a BTR5 which I mainly use in wireless mode when I'm out and about, but I sometimes use it wired to my phone at my desk at home. How much of an upgrade (sonically) would it be if I got a wired dongle for that purpose? I'm eyeing either the iBasso DC04 Pro or the Fosi DS2 since both are...

    Totally agree - great value especially compared to higher-priced sets I have had the chance to listen to.

    The Hype2 seem very interesting to me - I'll be looking out for your updated impressions for sure!

    Thanks for the reply! My favorite local hifi store carries Meze products, so I'll check the Advar out next time I'm there. I love my Quintets, but I guess what I'm looking for is a slightly more musical version of it with the same or better levels of technical ability. I recently bought the chu...

    What would you consider to be a good upgrade from the quintet in the next price tier up?
