EQ works for me in USB mode on Win10. You don't even have to replug anything, all changes are live.

Thank you, That's perfect.

When using in USB DAC mode in Win 10...it shows as Speakers, 16 bit, 48000Hz DVD Quailty

When in BT mode (Aptx) on the same computer, it is Headphones, 2 channel, 16 bit, 44100Hz CD Quality.

Does this mean that in USB DAC, this is outputting in Mono,,,,not 2 channel Stereo???

The sound quality should be noticeably better in USB DAC connection, but for some reason, the BT connection sounds better or fuller somehow.

Dear friend,

When working as USB DAC, the output of BTR3 is stereo so please don't worry.

Best regards

Does the USB mode in the Fiio Music app affect how the device works or is detected when used as a USB DAC on a different device like a computer?
I think there are settings like HWA or Direct and one or two others i cant recall.
Those are not defined what they mean or do anywhere.

Hi, I just updated my BTR3 to 1.2 and already regret this. Sounds of power On/Off and connection are way worse than old ones and there is no battery low sound or it's so quiet that I couldn't notice that. Could you upload older version and is it safe to downgrade?

You can't downgrade if you read the release notes.

Both times that I have upgraded the firmware in my BTR3, it didn't work right for a few hours after the update. The volume became extremely low at all volume levels. But, it went back to normal later.

FiiO hasn't programed the firmware update procedure for downgrades. But, you can safely update again with the latest firmware version and see if that helps with the abnormal behaviour.

Dear friend,

Thanks for the feedback. We will report to the engineer about that. It is not recommended to downgrade. But if you would still like to try, the FW1.0 firmware download link is: http://fiio-file.fiio.net/BTR3_1.0.dfu

I'd rather not to brick my BTR3 so probably i'll wait for another update. Thank You for answers.

In the firmware release notes, change in notification sounds is noted. So I think, that's a design choice, rather than a bug.

Yea, I know, it sounds now like 5$ bluetooth headset from AE so we have to get used to this. I'm not sure about battery low sound indicator, was it so quiet or just missing. I have to recharge my device and check it.

It doesn't make a sound now, audio just dips. Previously there was a warning tone.

That's weird. Previous warning tone wasn't perfect because it could appears at 20% and last for over an hour but still I knew that I should charge battery. I have no idea why they removed it completely instead of placing trigger on 10 or 15% instead of 20.

Hi, I just received my BTR3 and very happy with the sound. However I have two questions; 1) How do I tell when the device is charging? No charging indicator is present when connected via USB C and 2) How do I tell what FW version is running, the device doesn't appear in FiiO Music?

Just trust in your battery status instinct - since the charging time is short, after some weeks you will know it better than any gauge...
