    Hiby R6 Pro - serious upgrade to popular DAP

    I just bought an R6 Pro a week ago and I think it's very good. Definitely not the most "reference" DAP I've had, but definitely the most fun. I like that it's one of the few current generation Android DAPs that has Play Store support. I think it pairs very well with my Fiio FH-7 nicely, 846s...

    Has anyone sourced replacement batteries for the DP-X1?

    Same here. I usually just move the wheel to invoke the onscreen volume control and then adjust from there. My old Onkyo DP-X1 had a similar problem, but much worse.

    Agreed. When I got the X7II I also got an AK SR-15. I thought they both sounded very good, but the AK was definitely more stable on the software side. What put the Fiio over edge and why I kept it was the integrated Viper effects. I had known this was coming I would have sent the X7 back...

    FiiO X7 Mk II 2GB RAM + 64GB ROM + ESS9028 PRO + Balanced + DSD + BT 4.1 aptX + Dual mSD + Dual Band WiFi + Opt Out

    Had enough and rolled back to 1.0.6. Is there a way to keep it from asking about installing the OTA update? Even with using the old Fiio player on 1.0.7 the device seemed to be sluggish and didn't always respond to touch input. I don't need that feature.

    Thanks, I appreciate the speedy reply and the information. For now I've rolled back to the old player apk. I'd rather have Viper than a sort of functional EQ. Trying to set the sliders was maddening with them mostly not responding to touch. The firmware itself seems solid but it looks like...

    FiiO X7 Mk II 2GB RAM + 64GB ROM + ESS9028 PRO + Balanced + DSD + BT 4.1 aptX + Dual mSD + Dual Band WiFi + Opt Out

    Am I missing something with how to operate the EQ? I'd say less than 1 out of every 10 attempts to move a slider actually registers. It also seems like the bottom row of preset names doesn't actually fit on the screen. I also don't see how to save a user preset. Additionally, hitting the...

    Thanks for the response and the info on the incompatibilities. I was able to find the stuff, so no need look further. Thanks again!

    Hi, I'm trying to install V4A on my X1. I got the rooting done but none of the download links for the TWRP or V4A images on this thread work anymore. Does anyone have updated links they can point me towards so I can grab these? Thanks!

    It's interesting that you mentioned that about the 2 card instability. I just got an X7II last week and actually set up a return to Amazon for it and ordered an AK SR-15 because the X7II was extremely unstable (locking up, audio dropping during songs). I was a bit disappointed because I...

    Grado Bushmills X - Grado's first closed-back headphone?

    I got my Bushmills today and I have to say I by far prefer my GH-1s.   I think the bass on the GH-1 has both better extension and impact and the detail in the upper mids is much better.  The soundstage is more to my liking, also.   I tried the Bushmills with the stock S, quarter modded S...

    Grado Bushmills X - Grado's first closed-back headphone?

    Mine are with FedEx for delivery in the AM.   Based on the prices these things were getting ebay maybe I should leave them new in box and wait a couple of months.   That plan will probably last about 2 minutes after the box gets here as I rip them open like a rabid kid on xmas morning and...

    I just called Onkyo US customer support about the wobbly headphone jacks.  The rep said they were aware of the issue and his advice was to return the unit to the dealer and wait a few month before getting another one.  Kind of disappointing because I really like the SQ on the unit.   So then I...

    iBasso DX80 . . impressions and reviews. . and discussion NEW FW: 1.6.0 ** link . . 1st page . . .

    Both the AK100 and AK120 players I had also attenuated the volume when the EQ was in line, so from my perspective the fact that the DX80 also did it wasn't unusual.   Does this bother you enough that it makes this device unacceptable?
