FiiO BTR15 Bluetooth Headphone Amplifier (Black)

Ordered this after returning 3 other products to attempt to do exactly the same thing - get the best sound from my music via my phone. Nearly ordered this as the first but for various reasons I tried the 3 other products, really wish I'd just bought this and saved myself the hassle. It's superb, absolutely tiny and lightweight, excellent build quality, good accessories and simple to operate. Loaded up the Fiio app, paired it and updated it in about 5 minutes. Then had a play with all the various functions - the Bluetooth connection with LDAC enabled sounds better than my Sony headphones do in the same mode. The USB connection took a little learning, I had to change a setting and then WOW! Tidal sounded amazing, really shows the quality of the Dac and amp chips in the BTR15. A little EQ fiddling had me grinning and nodding my head in moments. So much better than a wireless connection. Bass extension was excellent and highly controlled, mids sounded perfect - no overstating, treble extension excellent and no sibilance. The soundstage is expansive and easy to place instruments/vocals. Both male and female vocals sound epic. Almost as good as listening to my speakers and hifi equipment, a very worthwhile upgrade to the sound quality available from my phone in a very portable device - Fiio gets a huge thanks for such a great product!

Great battery life compared to the fiio uBTR I was using previously. Used to switch off when unplugged from charging which was infuriating but a software update has stopped this and it is now 5 stars.

Very compact unit with a clear, powerful and uncoloured sounds. The EQ is incredibly powerful with its multi-band parametric EQ. It also has 3 user presets (useful for instance if one plans to use the BTR15 with three different headphones). The EQ and other advanced parameters can be controlled with an iOS/Android app . This is probably the weakest part of the BTR15. The app (I tested the iOS version) is far from perfect. EQ settings showed by the app are often off sync from the in EQ settings stored in the unit. Some settings have no explanation anywhere. Occasionally, the app needs to be closed and reopened. It's a real shame that the app is not at same level of the hardware. In my case it's a limited problem: I use the BTR15 only in Bluetooth mode and I use the app only to create the EQ presets and set the unit's general settings. After that, I will probably use the app very rarely as everything I need can be controlled directly on the BTR15 without app. The only major issue that I found is that if the EQ is enabled and the BTR15 is not on BT mode (ie it is in mode "PC" or "Phone") the sound disappears. In other words, one has to switch the EQ off in PC or Phone mode; otherwise the unit is essentially silent. Overall, I like the FiiO BTR15. It covers everything I need and it sounds great. It's also tiny and easy to use. Having said that, I liked the intuitive use of Fosi Audio N3 more and I would have liked to keep it. Unfortunately, I had to return the N3 and I bough the BTR15 instead because of the background noise of the N3. If you can live with the app in its current status and the eq that needs to be switched off when you don't use BT, the BTR15 will likely enhance your listening experience. If you want an headphones amplifier that does what it's supposed to do smoothly, you may want to look somewhere else.

he FiiO BTR15 is one of those devices you don’t realise you need until you hear it. I bought it to pair with several headphones and I’m blown away by how much life it adds. The sound is clean, dynamic, and punchy, with enough power to drive anything I throw at it — even planars like my HE400se. It delivers rich bass, crisp treble, and great separation, all while keeping the mids beautifully balanced. Bluetooth connection is rock solid, but it really shines when used over USB. Battery life’s solid, the OLED screen is handy, and the build feels premium and sturdy for something this small. If you want desktop-level audio quality in your pocket, this is it. At this price, it’s a no-brainer upgrade for anyone who cares about sound.

Coupled with TIDAL on a PC, this mini device produces fantastic music quality through headphones wired into it. I’ve used it with a pair of B&O headphones and a pair of AirPods Max, and in both cases the quality of sound has been noticeably superior to that produced when listening to music on them via Bluetooth. The amazing sound quality of a song delivered in full MQA resolution has to be experienced to be believed, my jaw hit the floor the first time I listened to such a track. The BTR15 is tiny, easy to use, and makes music sound better. If you love music, you should probably have one. The cost is immaterial to the audio pleasure that ensues. Two thumbs up 👍🏻👍🏻

Sound quality is good battery is not good don’t last long battery is really week I will suggest not to buy

Brilliant device, I have it paired with my TV via Bluetooth so I can use some nice headphones for films and streaming music, and USB-C for PC and my phone, and it just makes everything better.

Ok sound at best, the BTR7, which I also own, sounds clearly better and is presently just 20£ more. Not as tiny and sleek, so if you don't care about sound you should go for the BTR15.

Za ok 400 zł. naprawdę warto.

I used this device (FiiO BTR15) primarily as a BT receiver for listening to audiobooks using my existing wired headphones, which I find more comfortable for long listening sessions than most existing TWS headphones. The device can also be used as a DAC and amplifier for higher-quality music playback from a phone, tablet, or computer. It's also quite portable. The package includes a plastic carrying case with a clip for attaching it to clothing. The "FiiO Control" app allows you to update the firmware and fine-tune the settings, although the device's menu itself is quite functional. For example, from the menu, you can configure a battery charging mode with a limit of 80%, which should extend its lifespan. When connected to a computer, the device does not use the built-in battery, which also prolongs its lifespan under such use. The build quality, premium packaging, and delivery time are beyond praise. Among wearable devices of this type, the BTR15 ranks, if not at the top, then at least among the top in terms of sound quality. It's important to understand that it's not a Hi-Fi player, as it lacks built-in memory and must be used with one of the playback devices listed above, either as a BT receiver or an external DAC and amplifier. I can confidently recommend it to those who appreciate this functionality.

Realmente lo compre por el Bluetooth y aunque tengo archivos en formatos variados qué no son comunes como Mpc o Aiff por no tirarle al Dsd, en todos ellos siempre me Marca Aptx a 44.1 Khz y no "abriendo" paso "según" a las demás frecuencias pero, pero, esto te lo "marca" más no a la hora de la VERDAD (donde realmente colocas la canción a reproducir), TODO CAMBIA, ya qué en VERDAD SE SIENTE LA DIFERENCIA entre un Mp3 de 320 Kbps y un FLAC de 1.4 Mbps o hasta de 5.8 Mbps. Esto también va AUNADO al tipo de AUDÍFONOS QUE TENGAS, ya qué cuento con unos SENNHEISER qué simplemente suenan Genial con mi Note 9 De Samsung e igual Mi Aplicación de NEUTRON MUSIC PLAYER ya ECUALIZADO a mi Gusto y si ya de por si, con la entrada de 3.5mm SUENA ESPECTÁCULAR, en el Fiio Btr15 con Bluetooth, el Sonido si "baja" un poco su calidad al de la entrada 3.5mm pero SINCERAMENTE EL VALOR DE LAS PRESTACIONES qué representa el Bluetooth no tiene COMPARACIÓN ya qué en una Smart TV o en un Auto o Camioneta, el SONIDO ES SUPERIOR a los mismos con este FIIO BTR15 Sinceramente aun no he probado este "aparatito" en sus SALIDAS FISICAS de 3.5mm o de 4.4mm Balanceadas pq REPITO : Lo compre para USARLO COMO BLUETOOTH, así que tampoco puedo dar una Reseña de Experiencia con la Comunicación del PC y demás pero si te puedo decir que he tenido unos FIIO Btr desde su primera Generación como el uBTR y el Btr3 qué sinceramente el uBTR era mucho mejor que todos por su COLORIDO y el Btr3 es un TÍMPANO DE HIELO pq simplemente es CRUDO y ANALÍTICO y este BTR15 es HECHIZANTE para mi, pq lo encuentro enmedio y es como si fuese un tipo ARCOIRIS enmedio de la Lluvia MIS AUDÍFONOS VIBRAN cuando una Buena Canción está BIEN GRABADA, ya sea en Mp3 o FLAC (Los archivos Más comunes para todo TERRÍCOLA jejejeje) esta reproduciendo se, ya sea desde un PROFUNDO BAJO (Rattle Get Up) mezclado con buenos agudos (Eddie Taylor Bad Boy) ya qué los Medios casi no me gustan y mi Ecualización es más al estilo Harman Kardon o en "V" En cuanto a su función de AMPLIFICADOR, tengo algunos Dacs y con el Neutron Músic Player, puedes elevar aun más el Sonido sin tener mucha distorsión en ellos y este Fiio de lo que sin ellos, ya se complica elevar el Sonido Pienso que hay más "artilugios" por "allí" qué pueden mejorar aun más el ESPECTRO MUSICAL pero la NETA? Estoy en PLENA ARMONÍA con estos FIIO BTR15 por mucho MUCHO mUcHo tiempo ya qué también "brincarle" a otra marca, ya se me hace para PURISTAS y yo... Apenas y llego a "Marte" jejejeje y no pretendo andar por las CONSTELACIONES indagando en FINITO en el INFINITO. SIMPLEMENTE este FIIO BTR15 se ADECUÓ a mi GUSTO y NECESIDAD Saludos buenos TERRÍCOLAS AMANTES y PERDIDOS en este ESPACIO MUSICAL

I have been using this with both my phone and TV since the end of february, and I gotta say that it was a good purchase. People on reddit told me it was overkill for my KZ ZS10 Pro iem's, but I was tired of purchasing budget friendly wireless dac amps as they all had uneven audio and background noise (distortion) along with white noise. This has: - No distortion, - No annoying white noise, - No uneven audio, - The 3,5mm port supports dedicated separate control of left/right channels, - Ability to be programmed with your own EQ profiles (three of them), - Lasts plenty long enough for movie and music sessions, - Room for upgrading by swapping iem's.

Qualité Fiio. Tres bon son avec Focal clear Mg , Beyerdynamic amiron home, Meeze 99 classic
