With the Tin P1 the Btr5 sounds magical...
Thanks to this forum and to all of you for this kind of emotions...

Got another question for you people. Is it normal for the volume of calls to be quite lower through the BTR5 than straight from the phone's jack? Like half the volume...?

It is adjusted separately so you need to check out the level.
Oh, yeah, that's right, silly me. Thank you @Ichos. 😊

May I also add that my Xiaomi Hybrid HD Pros sound even more amazing now that they are properly amplified by the BTR5? 😁 Also waiting for an MMCX modded MH1 to check out. And it brought new life connected to my "ancient" iPod HiFi speaker and also made it a bit more wireless of course. 🤘

Hey all, I wonder if anyone could help me with an issue I have with my brand new BTR5 which I enjoy immensely so far...
When I connect it to my phones through USB with the usb-c to usb-c cable that came with my Pixel 3a it works just fine. But the plugs are a little loose and with the slightest move it disconnects from the phone (especially on my older Xiaomi MiA1 which is a bit worn-out). So, I tried another usb-c to usb-c cable from Baseus, a Type-C CATKLF-G91, 3A 60W, PD2.0 which I have used for some time now to charge anything usb-c and is tighter... But, it doesn't work. BTR5 doesn't recognize it and phones play from their speakers instead...
Could there be something wrong with the cable or are specific usb-c cables needed to work and Google's is one of them?
Sounds like maybe that's a charging only cable. As far as I understand, USB-C doesn't require OTG like older versions of USB. Any proper USB-C cable should work.

Well, Baseus says it's also doing data, so... 😕

i have 2 Baseus 65 Gan chargers, the one i have at home works great,
the one i have in the office, 2 months in the PD 3.0 port is dead, not very nice for a 40 buck charger.

Maybe an Anker or a Samsung cable proves more durable... I am planning to get a Samsung when I go shopping in town. I have a 25W PD charger for a few months now and seems pretty good quality.

Do we know if Fiio will be releasing a successor to the BTR5? BTR5K? I've got a Qudelix 5K that I like, but it's sharp edges are kinda bothering me (small gripe, I know). I'm also a bit of a Fiio fanboy and love my FH3.

What's missing in the BTR5? Honest question, I'm not sure what else I would want from it.
