Just ordered them based on this review, then we will see :smile_phones:

Nice album, a little bit short though

With R3, I decided it was my last crowdfunded project, and now I am here again :dt880smile:

okay, I better just check the fuse and return it to Massdrop if the fuse is OK

Less than two months. I can return it to Massdrop, - need to check the cost for that.

hmm, I think my dac just died. For the last couple of days, I had error messages when shifting from a cd-quality file to a high res file. Roon reported "failed to load file". I could fix it by switching off the smsl on the remote and starting it again. Today I started it - it looked ok in the...

Old post, but was looking for help to replace it however. Maybe with a white one. This problem partly solved itself for me as the blue light went out by it self after 6 months.

You don't know yet what journey you have started. I got my Darvoice 7 months ago. Have been buying various tubes, and have now ordered a Primaluna power amp for my main system :-). I don't know what it is with tubes, but you get bitten by them.

Got mine today from Massdrop. For the second time in a row from Massdrop it sails through customs without me having to pay anything, so it just became more than $70 cheaper than expected :ksc75smile: I think it is really good compared to my 10 year old Musical fidelity, I am very happy with it.

I think you are right. I am replacing a Musical Fidelity HPA-90 (it is also a headphone amplifier, but I am using it as a dac only). The MF only plays flac files up to 96 kHz. With the SU-8 I can play all my files in full resolution.

Got mine today. Have to say I am impressed.

Surprisingly, here in Denmark, the R3 seemd to pass through customs without payment, but according to DHL, it was supposed to be delivered late yesterday. Nothing happened and still same message on the tracking page

Thank you very much for your comments. Still 3-4 weeks until Massdrops will ship mine. Impressive that you find it better than the Jotunheim. Can't wait.

Finally, mine has been picked up by DHL in Hong Kong. Now it only needs to go to Denmark, but that is probably the easiest part.

3 days ago I was asked for my shipping adress. I wrote the same as I did 2 month ago at the shipping survey. Since then I have not heard from them. It seems like a total mess.

I know, when something looks too good to be true...

Still no shipment information or any other sign of life from Hiby. Am I the last one?

To be honest, I bought a noname card off ebay. It was 512 GB and appeared like that in the computer and the Shanling M2s. When afterwards trying to fill it up with music, it slowed down and stopped between 5 and 10 GB. I have been fooled with a fake card. I have reported this to ebay. Sorry for...

Installed a 512 GB card. It seems to work fine :)

I was on a business trip when I saw it. Bought it immediately on the two 9038s. This was stupid, but at least I found out later that it supports 220V :o2smile:. I have a Musical Fidelity HPA 90, that I use as a DAC only with my PC, and it annoys me to see the green light in Roon (sample rate...

Yeah, I have some IEM I have to turn in the light to find the small red dot

Like the two-coloured tips. Always struggle with the sides

Correct, just removed email notifications for this thread. Filling my mailbox with spam. Yeah, I got the Shanling M2s about a week ago, realizing the delay on R3. I have not listened too much to it yet, but next week I will be on a work trip, and it will be perfect at the hotel room at night...

It is far fetched to call this a nightmare. I have been hooked on the DAP thing and I am afraid I will have a collection of them in a few years, including future Hiby's, but I am done with Kickstarter and Indiegogo. There is so much frustration, and I can't help reading it all. This is nothing...

Same here. It was Tidal offline that caught me. Now I don't see the benefit over Cayin, Shanling and Fiio in the same price range.
