What's the best and safest way to clean the jacks or holes on Hiby R5ii? Contact cleaners are safe? Compressed air cans? Or are they best left undisturbed?

The thing is I already have changed the cable. But what is bothering me now is that I have already charged hiby with that 5.2 voltage charger twice. Hope it has not damaged anything internally. Just played music on it

So even a 0.2 difference in voltage bad for charging?

Using a 5.2 v 2a charger for the hiby R5ii(5v 0.5a). Hope this is not bad for the player. Can anyone shed light on this?

Wondering if there is a different burn in time for the balanced port vs single ended on Hiby R5ii? Have played around 10 hrs on single ended now. Sound is delicious via HD 650.

Thanks. I got anxious about damaging the inner amp section of my hiby R5ii. After using the faaeal cable on 4.4 mm output, somehow the single ended on r5ii sounds little less louder like 3-4 volume steps which could also be my placebo. Balanced sounds the same. I guess a damaged dap-amp will...

If an amp inside a dap like Hiby R5ii is damaged then won't there be a drastic sign of that? As in the dap will totally stop working or sound awful or does a damaged amp degrade gradually or in a subtle way that is hard to even tell. After I used the cable with my hd 650 the single ended sounds...

I have a Hiby R5ii + a Sennheiser HD650. Recently bought a Faaeal 4.4 mm balanced cable for hd 650+hiby r5ii. While it delivers more power and loudness, it does sound a bit shouty or harsh compared to single ended. I just wanna know whether this faaeal cable is genuinely a balanced 4.4 mm cable...

But don't fake balanced cables damage the amp? Just wanna know whether I bought a genuine balanced cable or not.

Recently bought a Hiby R5ii. Ran it with my Sennheiser HD 650 single ended class A. And it worked very well. Then I just tried a Chinese 'Faaeal 4.4 mm balanced cable' with my HD 650. Since then I have been feeling that the Hiby R5ii sounds a little less loud just a narrow bit only on single...

If something like the hd 560 can run via ab economy then the R5ii can easily juice my hd 598 via single ended class a I guess. And maybe it can juice hd 650 via balanced class a

I am in a position to either buy a Hiby R5ii Or a Tempotec V6 Or a Topping G5. Power output of V6 is listed higher. But I am leaning more towards R5ii due to the class A amp because I have read that it may offer more voltage swing for higher impedance headphones. I have a Sennheiser hd 598...

2 questions. Does sticking a Topping G5 and a phone on top of one another cause shielding noise even when the phone's wifi and bluetooth are off? And does it sound bright or too neutral at times?

Two questions. Can the Hiby R5ii easily power a Sennheiser HD 598 via single ended class A? And can it power a sennheiser HD 650 via balanced class A?

Can anyone tell how much voltage swing (Vpp) Aune X7s spits at its highest gain setting via balanced?

Does anyone here use the X7s + Sennheiser hd 650? I use both in balanced on high gain. I feel that middle gain on balanced is just a tiny bit lacking in juice and high gain balanced is a little too much for 650. Anyone here who knows the best configuration for hd 650 with the X7s

On its website, it is mentioned that the Aune X7s outputs around 200mw as class A via single ended. But specifications don't mention class A in XLR mode. Does it mean that the X7s performs in class A only when it's in single-ended mode?

I tried searching for the Burson Cable + after reading your post. It seems to be a very good choice to uplift the Walkman. But the cable seems to be out of stock everywhere. Are there any alternatives to such cables?

Within my experience, The Sony Walkman A55 is not able to properly amplify even my Nad Viso HP50(32 ohm). It can't properly amplify my Sennheiser hd 598 (50 ohm). The Walkman makes these two headphones very loud, but loudness is nowhere synonymous with power or amplification. I feel that...

Hi. I recently bought a Sony Walkman A55. I tired amping it with a Schiit Magni 3 but the Magni 3 is badly underpowered by Sony walkman as the Magni requires 2 vrms and the Walkman is nowhere near 2 vrms. So can anyone post what is a good way of amping the Sony Walkman. Are there good portable...

Do you think the Sony walkman A45 can juice something like the hd 598 comfortably? I just don't want my hd 598 to be underpowered at any cost. Also does the Sony A45 have enough power to connected to a desktop amp like the magni 3 because I have read that magni 3 requires a full 2 vrms and sony...

Hi. How well can the Sony Walkman A55 drive Sennheiser HD 598? Can anyone please shed some light on this. I am in a situation where I can buy either Hiby R3 pro or the Sony A55. I only care about sound quality. And I also have a Schiit Magni 3 amplifier. But I don't think that the Sony walkman...
