I just went to get one and they told me the distributor told them it is discontinued and out of stock and a pro version is coming out in July.
I was lucky to find a store that had a couple left.

Requesting some Clarification...

I am looking for an LDAC Transmitter for my Desktop PC.

In Order for this Device (BTA30) to Transmit LDAC, It needs a Digital signal correct? Basically, PC's Optical wired to BTA30's Optical In -> BT Receiver Correct?

Any BTA30 Owners out there? How are you liking it so far?

PC's Optical wired to BTA30's Optical In -> BT Receiver

Working great.
Spectacular so far.

I was streaming LDAC from my Nvidia Shield to my BTA30 connected with optical to my Sony TA-ZH1ES. The amp input specs showed 96kHz regardless of the movie audio soundtrack specs which were mostly 48kHz, is this normal? I would assume it should show the actual bit rates.

How do I update the BTA30 Firmware?

How do I update the BTA30 Firmware?

There is a guide on the Fii0 site, you download the update installer and follow the steps. I just bought my BTA30 and updated last week.
In response to your other post, I only use as a bluetooth receiver so can't give a fully experienced opinion, but so far I am happy with my purchase and happy to have so many options should I need them in the future.

FiiO LR-RCA2 dual RCA analog audio cable is now available in our Aliexpress store. You could use it for connecting the BTA30 and the speaker. ​

Can someone at Fiio explain how to pair 2 BTA30 together to make a BT bridge plz ?

BT bridge？
Do you mean BT in and then BT out?
Can you elaborate on the features you want?

Yes, the point is to link, over BT, two devices (ex TV -> amp)

@FiiO Does the BTA30 have a selectable LDAC Playback Quality Option in BT TX Mode?

E.g In my phone, I have the option to select the Playback Quality...

• 990kbps - 909kbps
• 660kbps - 606kbps
• 330kbps - 303kbps

Also, I would mainly be using the BTA30 in BT TX mode, I'm not familiar with this topic but can other People within my House connect to the BTA30 without me knowing?

Dear friend,

You could adjust it in FiiO Control app when connecting to the mobile phone via Bluetooth:
LDAC streaming quality:

--Audio quality first: First ensuring sound quality with high bit rate (990kbps) output

--Connection first: First ensuring connection with low bit rate (330kbps) output

--Standard: Take care of both sound quality and connection at the same time with medium bit rate (660kbps) output

--Adaptive: Under the premise of maintaining the connection quality with the optimal sound quality output based on the signal strength

Best regards

Don't think you can bridge them.

I was told by support that when using optincal/coaxial input, then optical/coaxial output doesn't work.

I was trying to get around the problem using 2 LDAC headphones (doing this does not work with the BTA30, the sounds keeps cutting out in low sound situations when 2 are connected). My solution was to buy 2 BTA30s, but I checked with their support first and the answe was it would not work.

It’s a different use case but it works.
simply plug opt out PC -> BTA in DAC mode, then BTA -> rca Amp for example.

My use case is BTA1 in TX mode -> BTA2 in RX mode
The issue is about pairing them together.

@FiiO : is it possible ?
