The FiiO BTR17 will make you re-think what small Bluetooth DAC/amps can do. It offers more power than some desktop sources, sounds great with a variety of headphones and IEMs, has extensive customization with a feature-rich app, and even offers onboard PEQ profiles with easy customization in the app and via a new web browser- based configurator too.

I've really been liking mine. Being able to store 10 EQ profiles on the device is great. AptX lossless is working when paired with my Rog phone 7. The BT11 transmitter is super janky so I got the Creative BT-W6. It works much better and also connects with AptX lossless. The only issue I've run into is some crackling when BT volume is set to max on my phone, I think it only happens when using multipoint to connect both my bt-w6 and phone.
