    NEW HiBy R4

    What a thorough answer! Thank you, Joe, much appreciated. I have a 6-year-old DAP and considering the progress of DAPs since 2018 it’s ancient. I’ve been wanting a new one, one that works more like a small computer with all the benefits of that. I will buy the R4 today. I will mostly use it as...

    NEW HiBy R4

    Hi all, I have some questions on using the R4 as a digital transport: Is there a mode for this (e.g. On/Off)? Does the DAC and amp circuitry shut off in the R4, or how is the technicalities regarding this? Can I use the R4 as a 100% digital transport only, not being connected to the internet...

    Dan Clark Audio E3 Review: Interview, Measurements, Impressions

    There is differences between the two. G111 is discrete and single ended, G108 is op-amp based and is fully balanced in/out. And also, something I like, is that the G111 is less smooth than what the Violectric's are known for.

    Dan Clark Audio E3 Review: Interview, Measurements, Impressions

    I got it plenty loud, around 90 dB i guess... no distortion or anything sketchy. If you don't know, the same guys behind Violectric and Niimbus is also Lake People. I think you should check out Lake People G111 MKII. If I decide to buy the E3 I will go with that amp, and Mojo 2 as my DAC

    Yes, the HPA V222 and it sounded amazing. The E3 was in total control and I could hear everything, I was surprisingly deep into the recordings.

    For a portable solution, and not too expensive, there's also Questyle CMA 18.

    Lake People G111 - Headphone Amp

    Hi all in this thread. I can read that this thread is also about the G111 MKii as much as it is about the G111. I have a question about the MKii: I want this amp, also because my next headphone purchase most likely will be the Dan Clark E3, and WaveTheory was kind enough to respond to my...

    Dan Clark Audio E3 Review: Interview, Measurements, Impressions

    Thank you for your reply. It’s quite useful for me, so you know. An audio store close to me got the E3 in for about a month ago, and what I will do at my first audition (thinking at least two auditions before deciding to buy or not) is listening through my Mojo 2, then one of the stores high-end...

    Dan Clark Audio E3 Review: Interview, Measurements, Impressions

    Chime in, anyone who can: I have thought about this combination, the Mojo 2 and Atom Amp 2 (also Mojo 2 and Topping L30 II). This is because of the varying opinions in this thread on getting the E3 into a territory where the E3’s full potential is available. There is a consensus that the Mojo 2...

    Dan Clark Audio E3 Review: Interview, Measurements, Impressions

    Congrats Dan. Glad to hear that the E3 is a success for you and your company. Are you able to tell when the E3 gets European distribution, and arrives to a store or two in Copenhagen, Denmark?

    Dan Clark Audio E3 Review: Interview, Measurements, Impressions

    I really appreciate your contributions to this thread regarding the E3 driven by Mojo2. I think that the Mojo2 is a little miracle-machine and if I found a headphone that ticked all my boxes and the Mojo2 couldn’t drive it efficiently, I would be very sad. I don’t know if the E3 is that...
