When I connect my smartphone via Bluetooth (any codec) to my Shanling M0, the USB DAC out cuts off, and only the headphone out works. As soon as I disconnect Bluetooth, it switches back to USB DAC out mode. Is there a setting I am missing to allow the M0 to use an external DAC while acting as a Bluetooth receiver? I am running V2. 1 firmware. Thanks

Shanling hasn't implemented that feature (at least not yet). USB DAC and bluetooth receiver mode works with headphone out only.

I'm waiting for them to implement it as USB Bluetooth transmitter, but don't know if they will get that ever implemented.

I've been looking for a device that can receive Bluetooth and output digitally for ages as a way of adding bluetooth to ifi products like the hip DAC and iDSD Nano Black Label.

Before I jump and get the Shanling M0, do you or anyone else here know if Shanling Q1 Can do this too?

I don't know about the Q1, but I assume this functionility would apply to more expensive model.
Just FYI, my Cayin N3 also also has Bluetooth receiver > digital out. I think my Hiby R3 pro does too but I haven't tried it.
