Maybe your PC is using SBC (Blue Light), the app will tell you what codec is being used, if that's all it has then your out of luck as far as bluetooth, unless you try using an EQ.

I use "VoiceMeeter Banana" when I want to EQ, it has a very nice Parametric EQ, very easy to setup.

If you want to give it a go

1 - Select VoiceMeeter Input in Windows playback devices. (Set 2 channels)
(Alternative to the above (1), select VoiceMeeter Input in Foobar as output device)
2 - Set VoiceMeeter Banana to use A1 channel then output to BTR3.

Check the screenshot it should help, I removed all the faders on the channels not being used just to make it clearer. I was using wired for the screenshot but Bluetooth shouldn't be any different.

Use the EQ (right mouse click on EQ) on the output ( Master Section) not the input.

What: Amazon dropped the price from £61.99 to £54.99

Thank you - I'll have a go.
I use bluetooth for certain situations but for audio I've always stuck with wired to squeeze every last bit of SQ I can get before my aging ears let me down. I'm new to bluetooth streaming so I'm just trying to get my head around what is possible and if so, how to achieve it.

You can get Bluetooth transmitters, some support aptx HD.

Time to upgrade from the old one I have

I am looking to purchase the best Bluetooth receiver to connect to my Focal Clear headphones.

In terms of comparisons what about the
iFi Audio xDSD.

Yes it is more expensive, but does it sound better than BTR3 and others?

 

[Soundizer]

Actually IFI XCAN is even better: cleans up Bluetooth signal and is £100 less than xDSD

Can someone tell me if when using the BTR3 with Android you have the same problem with audio being resampled from 44.1kHz to 48kHz?

Yes, it works that way and it's unlikely to be fixed in future. Fiio has abandoned BTR3. It will soon be a year since last reasonable firmware update.

Just to be clear I'm talking over bluetooth not wired, not sure you can blame fiio when it's coded this way in Android.

What about "USB Audio Player Pro" over Bluetooth?

Thanks

I use USB Audio Player Pro and was wondering if anyone could please enlighten me to how to get the best quality settings for the app, and also for android - using the developer settings. Does one override the other?

There's discussion on the Shanling Up2 thread of BTR5 - is there any info on this?

Link to announcement (in chinese) here:
http://share.erji.net/wap/thread/view-thread/tid/2148499

Ok, since no response, here is what I have pieced together from google translate:

BTR5

• 2.5mm balanced & 3.5mm single-ended
• 2x ESS Sabre ES9218P DAC
• 160mW+160mW balanced output power

Ohh....Is this true ? Two individual Dac for each channel, Brilliant !

Size and the battery capacity please...As well as price.
