Is the Bluetooth bidirectional or receive only?

I just ordered one of these to use primarily for DM, Metal and faster paced/aggressive music. I am stoked!

@smsl mandy I was wondering if this can output signal from both xlr and rca at the same time. If for example, i wanted to connect the amp to both powered monitors and a sub.
Yes it can. Keep in mind that the gain through the XLR output will be higher.

Loving my MKII so far...
But is it just me, or did anyone else notice that it gets hotter than other dac/amps (I also have ifi zen dacv2 and xdsd which is relative "colder" to the touch than M500)
Its as hot as my SMSL A300 Amp and Hiby R6 DAP
