Does the 2021 version have better BT range than the original? I'm wanting to upgraded from the BTR3K, but need the range to be similar.
Same as the BTR5.

Because of the same BT chip used in the 2021 model, the BT range would be the same. The newer Qualcomm chips (such as QCC5120, 21, 25...) have a far greater range than CSR8675. The newer chips are also more power-efficient. Look out for newer chips if the limited BT range of CSR8675 is a concern.

Are you aware of models today that have those chips. My understanding is the range now for this is only 15 feet.

With the 2021 Version is Dual-DAC Mode working with Single-Ended or only with Balanced Output like V1?

I'd like to know this too. I bought the BTR5 but am wondering if I should have gone with the UP5 instead.
There is a Shanling UP5 thread here on Head-fi, and last time I was on it (some time ago) there were comparisons to the BTR5 and the Qudelix 5K. You might want to check there as well.
