I know this is off topic but I was planning on getting both the btr7 and utws5. My question to fiio is do you plan on giving the utws5 a PEQ in the app as well? That would really make my day.

I searched many daps for low latency bt receiver to watch my tv with Bta30 as transmitter.
Non of them but fiio m17 get me there.
So I oredered btr7 with far less money on m17.
I think Bt tech is still infancy to get real audio-video connection on wireless.

I had a BTR7 on order here in the UK and it looks like it's not going to arrive before I go away for a while. I wanted something to take with me so what's the best options with a 4.4mm out? Am I better just accepting the wait until after my holidays and going without. Or are there other new offerings on the horizon that will complicate the wait?

Hifonix in Birmingham have them for pre-order on their website. But they said late July and still don't have a date when I spoke to them yesterday.

Bummer.

I hope @FiiO can chime in and give some estimation as to when it might hit UK shores, hate pre-ordering with no ETA.

Dear friend,

Thanks for the interest in our product. The distributor in Spain just ordered the BTR7 from us. We will send the BTR7 to the distributor soon when he finishes the payment.

How about the sound impression single ended vs balance ?
I only use iem,
will try to buy a 4.4mm cable if it improves sound quality,
Thank you,

It would depend on your IEM, although most do not scale with amplification. Name yours, and let’s see who responds with experience. I can tell you my S12 planar set did respond to the balanced output with punchier bass and a more open stage, but the effect was subtle and you’d miss it if you weren’t listening for it.

Picked the BTR7 up at the post office this morning, drove 600 miles with it sitting there. Now sitting on a bench in Sandusky OH smoking a cigar and listening to the BTR7 for the first time. Hi res flac, sennheiser ie600, plussound cable, 2.5 mm to 4.4 adapter. Sound is sublime, size is not an issue.

Well done Fiio.
I really like the ie600/BTR7 (stock 3.5mm cable) combo as well. Warm and clear, if that makes sense... Plug and play in Windows and Mac, LDAC seems to work well enough too. It's a great little amp to add to the arsenal.
