@FiiO
one more bug to be reported - at some point device starts speeding up music by approx 10-15%. First re plugging of btr7 to ipad air 5 helped but later it appeared again and only factory reset helped…
And some clicking/jamming in the beginning of tracks is still there from time to time :frowning2:
FW1.85
Dear friend,

We will report to the engineer and try to reproduce this issue first.

Best regards

will it drive the edition xs ?
Should be pretty good on the 4.4mm. Power calculator says it should be very loud at 200mw and this can do 235mw @ 16 ohms according to the specs.
3.5mm does 165mw @ 16 ohms which should be fine but as always, balanced is best.

Anyone finding a rate cap when using their btr7 wired? Using an Android phone and am stuck at 44k even when testing with 2L's high rate MQA tidal playlist. Skipped to 48k for a moment then back to 44k. Files are in 192k and being picked up as such by my desktop dac from my phone.

Tried testing on my Mac and not even reading the filed as MQA...

@FiiO , any advice? Maybe a return/exchange in order...

By the way, after having owned the BTR5, too, I realized Fiio decided to get rid of the "On/off sound" with the BTR7!
While I always thought the on/off sound of the BTR5 sounded really strange (was kind of distorted for some reason?), I think that generally such sounds help a lot to immediately know whether a BT device is switched on. Especially because I am always confused that I have to press the button unusually long until the BTR7 switches on or off.
Anyone with similar experiences? Is there maybe even a hidden feature to activate such tone that I am not aware off? Or the possibility to implement one by the Fiio engineers? With the Shanling UP5, for example, one can even choose between sound or voice!

Does it support Parametric EQ now?

How many bands ?

Only PEAK filters or also allows low/high SHELF filters?
Dear friend,

The BTR7 can support PEQ now. Please update the BTR7 and the FiiO Control app to latest version first.
10 bands.
And here is a picture for you reference:

Dear friend,
1. Is your BTR7 using the latest firmware FW1.85? If yes, the sampling rate display in MQA page has been removed in BTR7 now.
2. You could check the setting in the Tidal app following this video to check again:

Dear friend,

We got this feedback from other users as well. And we have reported to the engineer for assessing.

Best regards

Does BTR7 have dual clocks (oscillators) like BTR5 ?

Hello guys,
As of today I noticed that when playing through Tidal app on Android it doesn't show MQA just PCM. I rarely use it cause I primarily use UAPP on my phone but just a few days ago I did and it was showing correct MQA. Could it be a problem after upgrading the firmware? I have the latest one
Other than that I'm pretty satisfied with BTR 7. Hopefully Fiio will fix some of the issues soon 🙂
PS: @FiiO I watched the video for the app and I disabled the loudness normalization but when opening the app it doesn't recognize the BTR 7.. Could it be due to Tidal app new update turn this feature off?

I have tried 3 different MQA devices on android and all 3 do not work, so it's not an issue with the BTR7. All 3 work with the Tidal windows app. The problem is from Tidal or androld.
