    HiBy FC6--R2R dongle DAC reborn

    Thanks Joe. I am trying like hell not to send this back. Have you seen issues when playing MQA? Varies by device but it seems if an MQA song comes on an Android device, it immediately garbles up and sounds like a robot. If I toggle os/nos mode it seems to fix for that particular song. But then...

    HiBy FC6--R2R dongle DAC reborn

    That's it! Wish it was 14 here! I have tried out several and this has been the best. I hear some extra clarity but it's not earth shattering. The stability and fit is top notch though.

    HiBy FC6--R2R dongle DAC reborn

    I have moved on. I am trying to help others that may see issues and a solution. That's what these threads are all about. Not just about proclamations of excellence. I agree the sound is great. But problems, fixes, and support are part of this hobby as well. I am trying to do my part for the...

    HiBy FC6--R2R dongle DAC reborn

    I want to add something for respective buyers and possibly Hiby support (If they are even following this anymore). So looking through the threads of other dongles, there were references to voltage and cabling. Although I don't have issues with other dongles, I am just like evryone else trying...

    HiBy FC6--R2R dongle DAC reborn

    This worked momentarily. Seems this unit is just faulty. The disappointing thing is I reached out to Hiby (who I bought from directly) and they want me to ship it back to China on my dime. The asked me for video evidence, which they viewed and agreed is a faulty unit. Unreal. This will...

    Astell&Kern Launches AK HC4 USB DAC

    So after a few days I want to add to my original thoughts... This dongle grew on me. It opened up to be very detailed after about 2 days. To the point that this became my favorite dongle I have tested. Here is a ranking that I made of my personal taste and testing... 1) This A&K 2) Hiby FC6 -...

    Hiby FC6 - another R-2R USB dongle

    So here is the weirdest f%^&*( thing.... I tried every firmware on their site. Upgrading, downgrading...you name it. Nothing. Plugged it into my mac, 2 windows PCs, my android phone, and my iPhone... black screen. Tidal, Apple Music, Roon ARC, and HiBy Music. Nothing changed. Then I read...

    I’ve reflashed from 1.04 to 1.07. Nothing gets the screen back on.

    HiBy FC6--R2R dongle DAC reborn

    Hi all. Hoping someone could help. I just received the FC6 and updated to 1.07. The screen no longer goes on. I reflashed and still the same issue. I then downgraded to 1.06 and I have the same issue. Please tell me I am missing something and this unit didn't just break. It plays, just can't see...

    Astell&Kern Launches AK HC4 USB DAC

    Well I bit the bullet and picked one up. So first... this USB C cable is absolute trash. It took an ungodly amount of force to get in and it doesn't sit flush with the housing making the port rock like it's going to break. Tried other cables and the port is way more secure. The sound is warm...

    The iBasso Dongle DAC Thread – DC03 Pro | DC04 Pro | DC06 Pro | DC Elite | ...

    So from my understanding, if MQA is working it is supposed to be purple/magenta not green (See pic below). Mine blinks green/purple. Now to be honest, I can give a rat's ass about MQA. The problem is that because Tidal uses it still and we have no way of shutting it off on the hardware or...

    The iBasso Dongle DAC Thread – DC03 Pro | DC04 Pro | DC06 Pro | DC Elite | ...

    How about getting more units to test with or requesting one of these faulty units? It’s coming across as “nope not a problem. We will keep testing and let you know.” Meanwhile the people who use tidal exclusively are stuck with broken audio or forced to return. You tout the product for MQA...

    The iBasso Dongle DAC Thread – DC03 Pro | DC04 Pro | DC06 Pro | DC Elite | ...

    That’s a DC Elite you have. We are talking about the DC06 Pro. iBasso, you have 3 people in this thread alone with the same exact issue but you keep stating you are not seeing the issue. You obviously have a batch of these that are faulty. After hearing that type of support, I’m going to...

    The iBasso Dongle DAC Thread – DC03 Pro | DC04 Pro | DC06 Pro | DC Elite | ...

    I mean I could have received a bum unit, but there are others in this thread with similar issues. Can this thing be firmware updated? Is there a new firmware update? This shouldn't be tidal app dependent either. It has been tested across at least 4 (Just tested on my ipad pro as well) different...

    I have used it on both the iphone 15 Pro Max and 2 android phones, as well as Tidal through Roon ARC. The dongle just blinks Green/Magenta stutters and statics. Not sure how you are not seeing this. Also... I am using the included cable.

    Thanks Paul. If they can iron out those issues in a firmware update, this piece is fantastic winner.

    As you can see from my post, this is an issue with the DC06 Pro. I have this issue on iOS and Android. Tidal, Roon, Roon ARC, or UAPP. MQA Stutters, statics, and eventually just won't play.

      Hello All,   Longtime lurker who has enjoyed reading this forum. I felt compelled to finally join and give my two cents here...   So I received my quads early like a few others here on the forum. I have to say I was a little disappointed at first. I kinda feel exactly like Jimster at this...
