A FiiO S15 overview "review"

You just add the remote in the bluetooth menu.
I couldn't figure this out. I enabled Bluetooth on the S15, and tapped "pair with new device", and the wait-cursor kept rotating for a minute or more. Evidently, the handheld remote is not in discoverable mode, or it's some other problem. What do you do to get the remote handset to get into pairing mode? Any help will be appreciated... I don't want to be forced to just use the Fiio app for all remote control.

I'm running the latest v1.0.3 firmware.

Has anyone checked the spectrum analyser display to see if it's actually analysing the spectrum, or it's just a dummy? I tried playing some tracks and switched to spectrum analyser, and the spectrum I saw was totally different from what my RME ADI2 FS displays. When I switched to VU meter, I could see the amplitude on the meters corresponding to the musical content, so that display is real. I think the spectrum analyser is a dummy animation.

I'm sorry I'm not in a position to help you, wrong location, insufficient knowledge, but I fully understand your sentiment. I'm grappling with the S15 to a degree one should not have to for any modern audio appliance.

Fiio Control only works when both your phone and the S15 are connected to the same network. Have you been able to get the S15 connected via Wi-Fi or Ethernet to your home network?

That should not be an issue. I occasionally use the Fiio Control app on my iPad and the S15 always shows up on the device list. Is your S15's firmware updated to the latest version (1.0.3)?
