FiiO BR13 HiFi Bluetooth 5.1 Music Receiver Long Range Bluetooth Adapter with USB DAC, LDAC/aptX Low Latency, OLED Display & RCA Optical Coaxial Output for Home Stereo,PC/TV:
With the advancement of technology, even audio equipment is gradually following the trend of wireless technology. FiiO is a very forward-thinking audio brand, having embraced this trend by launching a series of products such as Bluetooth DAC/Amps and, more recently, true wireless headphones. The FiiO BR13 is a Bluetooth receiver and DAC decoder released by FiiO to meet the needs of those who own a home audio system, offering convenient digital music playback at an incredibly affordable price.
Design: Because it will be placed alongside other expensive audio equipment, the design of the FiiO BR13 cannot be too bad. In fact, the BR13 has a simple design but still possesses striking features such as the slightly beveled glass front and the elongated grooves along the sides.
While iFi’s Zen Air series has reduced the metal casing and replaced it with plastic, the BR13 still boasts a very sturdy aluminum casing. The front of the FiiO BR13 features a monochrome LED display that allows users to easily see important information such as input signal, sampling frequency, and volume level.
The FiiO BR13 technical specifications provide excellent value to customers who buy it at their current price. The BR13 wireless system supports Bluetooth 5.1 which enables users to stream high-quality audio through aptX Adaptive and LDAC codecs. The ES9018K2M DAC chip decodes 24-bit/192kHz PCM. To achieve proper playback of 32-bit and DSD audio formats you need to invest in a more expensive device than the BR13 provides.
The FiiO BR13 delivers balanced sound quality which matches the listening preferences of users who enjoy multiple music genres. The DAC EQ system lets you modify the sound profile according to your specific listening needs. The FiiO BR13 enables users to create seven distinct EQ presets through FiiO control software.
The FiiO BR13 provides excellent product value which results in high-quality performance. The system provides high-quality digital music playback options which work well with traditional CD and vinyl sources.
