    Hiby R6 Pro - serious upgrade to popular DAP

    Hi I use the R6Pro with my Etymotic ER3-XR when travelling, but at home I use the R6Pro with my HD660s over a balanced connection, and they sound absolutely fantastic.

    Hiby R6 Pro - serious upgrade to popular DAP

    Hiby R6 Pro - serious upgrade to popular DAP

    Hiby R6 Pro - serious upgrade to popular DAP

    I'm not sure what's happening - has anyone else seen this, or can anyone explain. If 192K is the maximum from Tidal, how is my R6Pro showing twice that, as below?

    Hiby R6 Pro - serious upgrade to popular DAP

    It definitely works - i just updated on wireless, version shows as 3.18.71-perf, Mon Apr 20 17:29:39, build 1.86G, and I see the same track in proper MQA at 384K.
