r/Bluetooth_Audiophile

Hello Boys and Girls,

I am using a Honor Magic V2 Smartphone with Technics AZ100, since yesterday, but the volume is too quietly.

Before I had pair of Soundcore Liberty Pro 4 which were loud enough but they hurted heavy in the ears.

So I am looking for an Bluetooth Amplifier for between my Smartphone and the AZ100 to get a louder (and better) sound.

The first thing I did was contacting the Fiio-Support and they recommended me the BR15 R2R but I am asking myself if this is the right product for my usage and if there are competitors with a better product?

I own a M11 Plus LTD, maybe this one is usable for my needs?

Thank you very much for.your help

I wish all of you a nice day

With best regards

My 10 year old Bose Soundlink 2 just died. Excellent speaker that I will definitely miss! I'm looking for a replacement and keep going around in circles with reviews and recommendations. If you've purchased or shopped recently, please help a brother out. What's important to me?

1. Sound quality: I'm not an audiophile but let's say I'd like to be one. I prefer a wide, room‑filling sound rather than a directional speaker. Bass is important but I understand a portable speaker has limits. I want the best low‑end it can deliver for its size.

2. Medium size/portability: Nothing too small that will lack in sound output but something I can easily carry or pack in a suitcase.

3. Quality matters: I prefer a brand that will last and has a solid reputation. I'd rather not fight with technology and app issues.

4. Budget is $100 - $400: Will pay for substance. I use it daily so I'll invest if it's worth the extra $$$.

5. Misc thoughts: I'd like to try something other than Bose or Sonos but will consider them IF they are the best option. No JBL due to a history of issues. I tried the Marshall Emberton 3 but want something with better sound and punch.

I run alone before sunrise with my wireless earbuds in. I want a personal alarm that can send an alert sound directly to my earbuds, not just a loud siren that scares everyone around me. I have seen basic personal alarms on Alibaba, Amazon and eBay but they only make noise through a built in speaker. I am looking for something that connects via Bluetooth and plays a loud tone in my ears. That way I can hear it over my music. Does any company make a wearable panic button that alerts through connected headphones? I want to stay safe without blaring a siren down the whole street.
