“It's not lossless over BT, but it still sounds great. Bluetooth is not the limiting factor in most cases, it sounds great with good gear. I have a BTR7 and it's fantastic. If you want something like that don't hesitate.”

“most like every Fiio product has some quirk or bug that makes it not work 100% correctly, my BTR7 bootloops 3-4 times before it starts and my BTR17 is highly sensative to EM interference.”
