    HiBy RS2: dual card slots, Darwin R2R, FIR, NOS, MQA 8x--news and impressions thread

    Thanks for reply. But I'm still can't find v1.3 . I'm pretty sure that in links from hiby site to google drive for v1.2 and v1.3 rs2 firmware is the same file (v1.2 I think). https://drive.google.com/drive/folders/1WMWuMv2ON7rLxXCBnUR0zNnYjGoc_Ehy...

    It's kinda strange. The firmware v1.3 from official hiby site (https://drive.google.com/drive/folders/1ZxyDZtPjHwJap6Xj68NZdpXjklEqk7Pf) is actually v1.2 firmware . There is probably a mistake here...

    Wicked Cushions and other gel earpads

    I actually have a lot of headphones and IEMs. And I've tried a lot of different earpads but not gel ones. So I'm just curious about them specifically. I'm particularly interested in using gel earpads outdoors in warm weather. Headphones I usually use outdoors: MrSreakers Ether Closed, Oppo PM-3...

    Wicked Cushions and other gel earpads

    Hi. I'm interested to try gel earpads. I hope they will help me to wear full size headphones in warm weather. I found out that the most popular brand making them is Wicked Cushions. But strangely I can't find a single photo of what is actually inside of Wicked Cushions gel earpads. I found...

    The ground of pentaconn 4.4mm connector.

    So I think I'm going deeper in this... 1) I've explore all my audio sources that have female pantaconn connectors. I've just look inside of them. And I see only 4 poles in Hiby RS6 and RS2, Cayin RU6 and RU7. But I see 5 poles in Hiby R5 (the old one) and IFI Gryphon. I assume these two use...

    I need a suggestion on smartphone mostly for bluetooth audio.

    If somebody for some reason is interesting in this topic... I ended up buying POCO X6 PRO. And so far I like it a lot. It works pretty good with Qudelix 5K and Gryphon with highest bitrate LDAC. What I don't like. POCO contains a lot of crappy apps that aren't very easy removable but it can...

    The ground of pentaconn 4.4mm connector.

    Just an example of of an shielded cable to have more understanding what I have in mind. https://audio46.com/products/dd-ddhifi-bc150b-silver-headphone-upgrade-cable I probably should just order something like this or make by myself to know for sure if it has any benefits...

    The ground of pentaconn 4.4mm connector.

    Thanks for your reply. But I still don't see why not to add shielding around 4 wires and connect it to the ground of pentaconn? Why pentaconn even has the ground? There should be a purpose I guess.... I have interference problems with every kind of portable audio I've tried (DAPs, USB and...

    R5, a new Android DAP by Hiby

    I would recommend to just add Hiby FC6 to R5. To me it sounds better then Hiby RS6 and all other players I've had and have now. I haven't tried R6 Gen 3.

    I need a suggestion on smartphone mostly for bluetooth audio.

    This make sense. But there are some potentials problems with older phones. 1. An old battery. And it can be expensive to replace it in flagship phones. 2. Flagships usually have OLED/AMOLED displays. And as far as I know they degrading relatively fast. 3. Fewer updates or no updates at all. I...
