Let’s hear what the “hardcore audiophiles” have to say 
. I don’t agree with most of the thoughts, but whatever. 
Hey squad, I’m letting go my OG TEA and some other stuff at a special holiday price here

Now it’s making sense. Who needs your starter sets when a Big Boy set is right there?

1 DAY FIIO BTR7 IMPRESSIONS:
As a respected source hater I decided that it was long gone since I bought my latest source to the collection.
Since the original announcement of the Fiio BTR7 I was eyeing that as it was one of the few BT dongles with 4,4mm connection (Shanling UP5 being the only other I know in <250$ category), later on PEQ functionality was promised so it was clearly showing as a replacement to well deserved Qudelix 5k. The only 2 things I don’t like about that device is 2,5mm balanced socket and the physical controls being shitty as hell for lack of better wording (it tends to turn on/off randomly on my pocket, it is really not intuitive to control songs, volume etc).
So it seemed like BTR7 would be a perfect choice, correcting everything that was wrong with already good device.
Boy, I was wrong. Fiio’s dongle is huuuuge.
It has terrible UI both in app and in the dongle itself. It turns on very long. It turns off very long. It is huuuuge. It is more in small DAP category than it is in BT dongle category. It is like a DAP without all the functionalities of dedicated audio player. It is like a dongle, but without the usability of a dongle. Qudelix has so much more developed app it should be a shame to Fiio to release something that shitty… PEQ doesn’t seem to work - only 10 band EQ as of now.
The sound is good and clean though (as all the rest of my sources to be fair).
It is definitely more powerful than Sony ZX300. It can chew 500Ohms Tantalus driver Bell Serratus with ease. So what, Qudelix5k can also drive them well in my opinion (our of single ended even?).
But if it can drive that it probably can drive everything else in the world - someone shoot me for that statement. But it is good to know there are BT sources capable of desktop like power delivery (5,6VRMS into 600Ohms in boost mode, 300mW into 32 ohm, come on - what else would you need).
I would be letting go of this device unless some miraculous enlightenment happens and I start to hear the difference. I am afraid though that it may only get worse if BT connection would turn out to be shitty - as if now I haven’t got a chance to test it properly.
Is anyone interested in buying this little gem? 
But let the pictures tell the 1000 words:

I’ll have to keep an idea like this in mind. Some time in 2023, I’m definitely going to have TOO many sub-$100 sets I never use. I may do something like this to pay it forward

Ho-ho-ho-ho.
Most cultmas gifts are packed and ready to go. Before I make a comeback, I’d like to say there’s only a couple of starters sets left from all my gear. For those who want/need a freebie from daddy, let me know.
If I missed someone regular, please do let me know through PM.
Merry x-mas mofos. Be back soon

Reporting you for spamming the thread 
And ya RSV will most likely become one of my favourite sets. Vocal tonality is 
Reminds me if OG TEA and SA6U had a kid. Currently RSV/EJ07>SA6U for me in-terms of tonality. Separation, imaging, and staging feels pretty similar, but SA6U does have a sharper resolution although at the cost of scaling and vocal immersion.
Fantastic set my man thank you
