A Qualcomm QCC5181 brings Bluetooth 5.4 with LDAC and aptX Lossless, two ESS ES9069Q DACs and four-channel THX AAA 78+ amplifiers deliver up to 650mW per channel in desktop mode, and over USB a 16-core XMOS XU316 makes it a high-end wired DAC. It won a VGP 2025 Summer Gold Award, Headfonics’ Best Wireless Streamer 2024, TechPowerUp’s Editor’s Choice and a CIHE EHA 2024 Silver Award.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eQualcomm QCC5181: a new era of lossless Bluetooth\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eQualcomm’s flagship QCC5181 meets the Bluetooth LE Audio standard, has 2.1Mbps of transmission bandwidth and supports lossless quality within aptX Adaptive (aptX Lossless), bringing CD-level lossless sound to Bluetooth. With Bluetooth 5.4, LDAC and aptX Adaptive at 96kHz\/24-bit and Snapdragon Sound, the BTR17 receives AAC, SBC, aptX, aptX HD, aptX Adaptive, aptX Lossless and LDAC.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cimg src=\"https:\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0960\/3199\/8339\/files\/fiio-btr17-flagship-bluetooth-headphone-amplifier-photo-qcc.jpg?v=1791332834\" alt=\"The Qualcomm QCC5181 Bluetooth 5.4 chip in the FiiO BTR17\" loading=\"lazy\"\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cimg src=\"https:\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0960\/3199\/8339\/files\/fiio-btr17-flagship-bluetooth-headphone-amplifier-photo-bitrate.jpg?v=1791332839\" alt=\"Bluetooth bitrates: aptX Lossless 1,200kbps and LDAC 990kbps\" loading=\"lazy\"\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eDual ES9069Q DACs\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eTwo ESS ES9069Q DACs, built on the fourth-generation 32-bit HyperStream architecture, reach 130dB dynamic range and −120dB THD+N while using little power, further reducing digital noise for a richer, more musical sound against a cleaner background.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cimg src=\"https:\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0960\/3199\/8339\/files\/fiio-btr17-flagship-bluetooth-headphone-amplifier-photo-dacs.jpg?v=1791332843\" alt=\"The two ESS ES9069Q DACs of the FiiO BTR17\" loading=\"lazy\"\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eTHX AAA 78+: up to 650mW\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe same THX AAA 78+ amplifier as FiiO’s KA17 and M23 runs in a four-channel fully balanced design with eight op-amps in parallel, for robust, controlled power and a clear, natural sound. With USB power on the POWER IN port and desktop mode on, four op-amps work in parallel for current amplification: up to 650mW + 650mW balanced, 203% more than the BTR7 and comparable to desktop headphone amplifiers (300mW balanced and 140mW single-ended on battery).\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cimg src=\"https:\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0960\/3199\/8339\/files\/fiio-btr17-flagship-bluetooth-headphone-amplifier-photo-power.jpg?v=1791332849\" alt=\"FiiO BTR17 delivering 650mW plus 650mW\" loading=\"lazy\"\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003ePatented desktop mode and a three-way power switch\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eA dedicated D.Mode switch and power port let you run the BTR17 from an external supply (patent ZL202321946664.8). Used as a dongle with a phone, it then draws power from the supply rather than your phone, and the battery is neither overcharged nor over-discharged. A PC\/BT\/PHONE switch sets how it draws power: PC (powered entirely by the computer), BT (internal battery, charging over USB) or PHONE (the battery helps, so it takes less from your phone).\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eA multi-stage hi-fi architecture\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eInside is signal processing comparable to premium music players: dual clocks for the digital audio and DAC, low-pass preamplification and multi-stage analogue processing that restore detail and dynamics. A three-stage, three-rail power supply (filtering and over-voltage protection, DC-DC boost, then high-precision LDO regulation) gives the digital, conversion and analogue sections their own rails, plus more than ten smaller rails. Temperature and DC-output detection protect the BTR17 and your headphones, and a volume limit protects your hearing.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eXMOS XU316 USB and a 10-band PEQ\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eOver USB, the flagship 16-core XMOS XU316 gives lower latency, more stable transmission and better compatibility than typical USB chips, with PCM up to 768kHz\/32-bit, native DSD512 and full MQA decoding. Its computing power also runs a high-definition 10-band PEQ up to 192kHz, which you can set in the FiiO Control app or FiiO’s web tool, adjusting frequency, gain, bandwidth and Q, and importing, exporting and sharing curves; a side key switches EQ. A UAC 1.0 mode plugs straight into a Nintendo Switch, PS5 and more.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cimg src=\"https:\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0960\/3199\/8339\/files\/fiio-btr17-flagship-bluetooth-headphone-amplifier-photo-xmos.jpg?v=1791332854\" alt=\"The XMOS XU316 USB chip in the FiiO BTR17\" loading=\"lazy\"\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eA knob, a colour screen and real leather\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe pressable volume knob, with a double-sided 3D-engraved design, is tested for more than 50,000 presses and 40,000 rotations; it also plays and pauses, handles calls, enters menus and reconnects Bluetooth.
