BR13: Get sound even closer to master-level quality"},"content":{"rendered":"<p>The global popularity of the previous model\u00a0FiiO BTA30\u00a0reflects the continuous development and accumulation\u00a0of FiiO\u00a0in the field of Bluetooth technology over the years.\u00a0After repeated serious market research, the brand&#8217;s engineers have developed a special Hi-Res Bluetooth receiver BR13 to make available to you a product that better meets your needs at an affordable price.<\/p>\n<p>The BR13 features a professional HiFi audio architecture that includes a Qualcomm QCC5125 Bluetooth chip, an ES9018K2M DAC, and a TPA1882\u00a0operational amplifier\u00a0.\u00a0In addition, there is a crystal oscillator, 5 low-noise linear voltage stabilizers and a separate power management chip, which ensure stable and high-quality audio transmission.\u00a0With powerful configurations, the BR13 supports seven High-Res Bluetooth codecs, including LDAC.\u00a0The DAC supports 96kHz\/24bit input.\u00a0Supports UAC1.0 for compatibility with PS5, Switch and other consoles.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter\"

supports both digital and analog outputs and higher standard output values \u200b\u200bthan the average\u00a0Bluetooth receiver.\u00a0The optical and coaxial outputs support 96kHz\/24bit, and the RCA output supports 2Vrms.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter\"

low-frequency audio signals allows you to increase the sampling rate to 96 kHz\/24 bit from any input, allowing you to get sound even closer to master-level quality.<\/p>\n<p>In particular, BR13 supports SPDIF conversion and SPDIF Bypass.\u00a0SPDIF conversion means that optical\/coaxial signals from the TV\/set-top box\/DVD player can be converted to optical\/coaxial\/RCA output for home theater.\u00a0Bypass SPDIF means that optical and coaxial signals can be input at the same time, saving you time from having to insert and remove cables.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><img

aluminum alloy body combined with a specially designed angled front panel.\u00a0The high-contrast and durable LCD display allows you to quickly view information about codecs, equalizer and more.<\/p>\n<p>The FiiO BR13 comes with seven presets, including those for popular and classical music, allowing you to enjoy a variety of musical styles at once.\u00a0In addition, there are two types of parametric EQs that you can adjust yourself in the FiiO Control app to get the sound you want.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter\"

two Bluetooth devices.\u00a0Conveniently and seamlessly switch between your smartphone, tablet and other devices.\u00a0In addition, it supports low-latency mode.\u00a0Switch to aptX LL priority mode with one tap via the companion app for low-latency audio for greater immersion, whether you&#8217;re playing games, watching TV shows or movies.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Unique to the BR13, the ability to scale low-frequency audio signals allows you to increase the sampling rate to 96 kHz\/24 bit from any
