I would sell it if that's the intent to pair it with the IT01 for more use cases.

I just got the IT01 in today and it pairs really poorly with the BTR1 purely because of that. Works great with my other less sensitive phones however!

Yeah it was my intention, thanks.

1) I can understand people wanting beeps/sounds on volume up and down but I prefer to use the music go up/down with volume changes instead like on Fugoo XL, Sony Bluetooth etc. Agree to disagree but it sucks that there is no option to disable the sound. Maybe add a function to turn disable the sounds via 4 presses of the main button.

2) The disconnected beep happens when I am connected with my Samsung s7 and my Macbook Pro. I get into my car and drive away and the beeping starts as soon as I leave the drive way and never stops until I turn of the BTR1!

Reproduction:
1) Turn on BTR1
2) Connect to BTR1 with android phone
3) Start playing music on android phone
4) Connect computer to BTR1 as voice
5) Walk far away enough from computer that the computer disconnects from BTR1
6) Beeping sound starts 30s to 60s after walking far away. And repeats forever interrupting the music with a double beep at a regular interval.
7) Walk back to computer and reconnect to BTR1 or wait for computer to reconnect automatically
8) After 30 seconds and successful connection the beeping stops

I reproduced using:
Samsung S7 - Primary device music playing
Alienware R3 13 with Intel 8265 wireless + bluetooth + Windows 10
Macbook Pro 15 2018

To me the beeping breaks the enjoyment of the unit quite a bit. I find myself looking for another product.

Dear friend,

Our engineer told us that it is recommended to turn off the Bluetooth of the device you don't use. The tip sound would stop if the disconnection is longer than 3 minutes generally.
We will consider the problem with those tip sound in our later products as well.
Sorry if bringing inconvenience to you.

Best regards

BTR1 support multiple devices connection right? How do you switch to other connection. Please enlighten me. Thank you

You pair it to both phones, and the BTR streams from which ever has the more recent command.

For example, I normally play music from my personal phone, but when I get a call through my work phone it takes priority and that comes through.

Thanks for the quick response. So it only work on phone calls? But doesn’t work in streaming music?

Hopefully the next BTR model will work well with sensitive IEM's.

Dear friend,

The BTR1 can connect to two Bluetooth devices at the same time, the specific steps are as follows:

1.Turn on the Bluetooth for device A and B . Hold the power button of the BTR1 (generally for about 6 seconds) and release it until the red and blue lights flash alternately which indicate that the BTR1 is in pairing mode now. Search the BTR1 from Device A for connection. 'BTR1 connected' is displayed on device A at this time;
2. Manually click "disconnect" on device A, and 'BTR1 disconnected' will show up. Hold the power button of the BTR1 for about 3 seconds to turn it down.
3. Repeat step 1 for entering pairing mode. Search the BTR1 from Device B for connection, 'BTR1 connected' is displayed on device B at this time;
4. Click the 'BTR1 disconnected' option on device A again. The device A is connected to BTR1 now.

At this time, you could connect the headphone to the BTR1. When playing the song of device A, it can be heard from the BTR1. Pause the music from device A and play the song of the device B instead, you could enjoy the music from device B in the BTR1 at that time instead.

If you have already owned the BTR1, you could have a try. If not, you may test in the local store instead.

Best regards

What's the problem with the BTR1 and sensitive IEMs (assuming you mean multi-BA models)?

It hisses.

So I use it with both my iBasso IT01 and Meze Neo 11 and when you pause it music it will have noticeably hissing and crackling noises until the signal cuts out (a few seconds).

So I'm guessing it is pretty much horrible with the IT01?

Yeah - unusable for me purely because I need to start and stop my music quite often in my environment.

Haven't tested, but would assume so. Same principle - if I pressed play on a music app on my other phone, it'll likely send through a signal that would interrupt and take priority over my existing task.

Ok. All clear now. Thanks a lot sir.

I just tried this with my Mac and iPhone it works. And the feature is really handy.

So it's fine when music is playing?
