I think it's AAC? Someone who knows more about BT can confirm, I don't have a clue

It has AAC but this is a bit of a step down from LDAC (at least technically - we can argue all day about what can and can't be heard, of course).
BTR7 codec capabilities are AAC/SBC/aptX/aptX LL/aptX adaptive/aptX HD/LDAC

Yeah I plan on mainly using it as a dongle (at home, office etc), and bluetooth for when I'm walking around, where any difference will be even less audible

That’s what I wanted to ear
Thx, I’m gonna get one soon then, depending on your feedback with BTR7 of course.
I bought a L&P W2 lately, but I am not convinced… The low end is too weak.
Musicality is missing somehow…

I like the W2 but it made all the iems (imo) sound similar and had this digital feel to them. Hard to explain.

It's a really "dominant" source - slaps a sort of filter on top of whichever IEM you've plugged into it. Makes its personality very easy to tell apart, but it's definitely not a good dongle to test IEMs with

Thx @doctorjuggles
AAC is compressed from what I read, so I hope that wired, the sound will be exceptional

Very much so! Thankfully golf in Barcelona goes all year round, so I get a fair bit of play in during winter too

I still hold hope for that golf bag photo

Here it is. 7C this morning but warmed to 12C by 18th.

Colours are changing and most leaves will fall by mid Oct. Looking forward to receiving the SP3K around then. Odyssey in Nov.

I actually owned this exact same Scotty a while back. Using a blade putter for the most part now, but I also have a Phantom X for the slower greens where I can swing more freely and get an actual line with my putter.

I ordered this super custom blade putter from Kraken, will post it here when done. Big thumbs up on the Callaways, I love their woods - Miura for irons at the moment. Golf gear is life

In other new, Viking Ragnar purchaseddddd

I carry two putters as well. When the greens have been rolled it is the blade. Love the gear (like audio) but I am a hacker. Off again this am. Prog On!

I love collecting putters. All shapes and sizes are beautiful <3

Practicing tonight, competitions tomorrow and Sunday

This has been the latest acquisition:

Will post the Sugar Daddy II PXG wedges haha, I couldn’t not buy them with that name

Super late to the party, but a brief N8II review is up: https://www.head-fi.org/showcase/cayin-n8ii.25734/reviews

Most recent one

I'm really excited for it, but so far I haven't received tracking Hoping on next Monday

I am excited as well. quite unsure about a good pairing dap-wise. LPGT Ti could likely be too much (bright) for the Ragnar.
Your N8ii and Ragnar would make for a good combination I guess (... or is N8ii brighter than LPGT Ti ). Although N8ii should generally be excellent, I was hesitant to buy it because of the numerous "issues" mentioned by users in the respective thread; I got the impression that it is not for me but rather for those who benefit from a dap with a playground of different settings and adjustments.
Some time ago I decided to wait for SP3000. Let's see.
