Spotify crashing on new R6 iii 2025

I am in my first week with my R6 mkiii 2025 and love it. Spotify keeps crashing though. Uninstalled it, rebooted and reinstalled. Worked for a while then went back take crashing regularly. Any idea cause or how to fix it ? Apple Music working fine.

Thanks

AirPods Max with DAP

Just sharing that I got a Hiby R6 dap to power some audiophile headphones like Hifiman SX. I have the Apple aux to usbc cable and tried running the dap to my APM2’s wired - the high quality EQ’d sound goes to APMs and they sound great. Not same as Hifiman but as good as some audiophile closed backs for sure

BTR17 / Hiby R6

I am getting s sucked into the rabbit hole as many of you have already. After getting the Audeze Maxwells, I realized what I was missing in sound. Bought the hifinman XS and realized I needed an amp to help. Prefer portable so got the BTR17 (which is a great little device). The connectivity was a pain though wires/bluetooth with dongle etc. I returned and got the Hiby R6 III 2025 and love it. Definitely in improvement in sound, power and convenience. The Hifiman XS sound incredible now. Also my IEMS.

Spatial Audio vs Lossless

Hi - learned that Spatial Audio overrides lossless setting in Apple Music (which is my primary music source).

Are people disabling Spatial Audio in Apple Music to allow lossless ? Or is quality good enough and Spatial worth the loss ?

iPhone/BTR17 vs DAP

Hi All - got the BTR17 and love it. Use it with Hifiman and Senn wired. Only issue is iPhone wired only hits 44k. When I use BTooth and the Questyle dongle on my iPhone i can get much better bitrate. That’s a lot of connections (Questyle on phone, Bluetooth out) kind of annoying. Would a DAC be better ? I primarily stream Apple Music lossless. Thanks

BTR17 wired vs BT w/Questyle

I have an iPhone and bought the BTR17 for my wired headphones (Hifiman, Senn etc). Love the device but noticed when wired to my iPhone I get 44k quality but when using my Questyle dongle I can get 1011k kbps or better. Shouldn’t wires be the best ?

Want to understand options. New to this device. Thank you

I have Senn HD600s and considerinfbHidiman XV’s. Will stream from an iPhone mostly and wondering if a portable dab like the fiio btr17 is enough vs a desktop amp like the topping dx5. Prefer a portable solution if there won’t be a significant diff. Thanks for any recommendations
