    Any Really Nice Older DAPs That Don't Play Hi-Rez?

    QC20 Fakes?

    DAPs That Can Be Controlled With iPhone

    I will want to use this with a vintage receiver that was pre remote control. If you use the line out to a receiver, can you control the volume with the iPhone and Hiby app? Does the R3 have a normalizing feature that works when using line out to a home receiver?
