Earbuds Round-Up
I've had the Qlabs God Series Black from Rholupat for a couple of days now. My hope was that this would be an MMCX-enabled upgrade over the Yincrow X6, which I don't quite love. They just seem slightly muddy to me. For me, so far, the Black are a good upgrade over the X6. They have a little...- prophette

INTRODUCING REDESIGNED PLUSSOUND BLUETOOTH CABLES - BT5.0, APTXHD, LDAC, USB DAC/AMP, TYPE-C, AND MORE. COMPATIBLE WITH IEMs AND FULL-SIZE HEADPHONES.
All I did was double-click on the downloaded file and followed the prompts, keeping all default settings. To be honest, I'm not motivated to troubleshoot the installer. I have updated firmware, jailbroken devices, and flashed ROMs on more devices than I can count over the years. I mean, I...- prophette

I downloaded the 1.01 firmware update package but it won't properly install and run on my Windows10 machine. Nothing happens unless I run as admin, and then it tells me its side-by-side configuration is incorrect. I've uninstalled and reinstalled with no luck. If anyone else gets it to work...- prophette

I do hope a firmware update solves some problems, but software won't stop IEMs from falling off the connectors.- prophette

Maybe my V3 module is defective. Nevertheless, my experience with it has been very disappointing. On paper, it's soooo good. AptX HD? LDAC? Balanced connection? BT 5.0? BT MULTI-POINT!!! In real life, it looks fantastic and it does work, but I have so many issues with it that I don't...- prophette

BQEYZ Z3 BLUETOOTH CABLE
I've been tempted to buy the Fostex TM-2 but the price has kept me away and enough people have had issues with the TRN BT20s that I'm avoiding that one as well. Hope this one is good. Fiio has been on a roll lately. -
BQEYZ Z3 BLUETOOTH CABLE
I decided to try out a couple of AptX HD cables - the KZ cable and this BQEYZ Z3. I wasn't expecting much from either at prices around $30 USD when other cables on Amazon are at least twice that price, if not much more like the Shure RMCE-BT2 and the Westone V2 cables at $150 each. I started... -
Going fully Wireless IEMs. Too soon? Or are we there yet?
Unfortunately, the Qualcomm QCC3020 does not support AptX HD. It supports only AptX. QCC3034 does support AptX HD. https://www.qualcomm.com/products/qcc3020- prophette

I have not found anyone who will ship this to the USA and now I'm just mad because there is nothing else quite like this out there.- prophette

Going fully Wireless IEMs. Too soon? Or are we there yet?
This thread is both a blessing and a curse. :-) Having made it through almost every page because I am insane, I think I have found my TWS setup for both work and home until the next generation of Qualcomm chips come out. I was never particularly interested in true wireless buds, even after my...- prophette

HIBY R6 - DAP Dual DAC Balanced Out - Great Reviews and Over 500% Funded @ Indiegogo!
I still have an issue with providing an unsigned driver and requiring people to go into test mode or figure out how to get into test mode if secure boot blocks it. I just don't think that (and providing instructions in only one language) is consumer-friendly. Nevertheless, I will say that if...- prophette

For what it's worth, AptX HD is listed as well. I hadn't expected that even though it's listed for the R6 Pro.- prophette

HIBY R6 - DAP Dual DAC Balanced Out - Great Reviews and Over 500% Funded @ Indiegogo!
I'm glad people are working through their problems. It's such a good feeling when you see the device reboot and realize it worked. Does anyone know if the clear TPU case BGGA showed in his R6 Pro unboxing will ever be made for the R6? I have a red aluminum R6 and I don't really want to cover...- prophette

Did you resolve this yet? If holding the power button for what seems like forever until it lights up didn't work, not sure.- prophette
