Hi Guys My R6 2020 using the unbalanced LO mode is significantly lower in volume than my original R5 in LO mode, used in a 2 channel stereo setup. Could this be normal based on specs? Both are also less powerful than my old Pio XDP-30. Thanks for any input. bob

I know "Which is better" is subjective but only so much, So which is "better" on Paper? I have a Pioneer XDP-30 and a Hiby R5 now. The Pioneer wifi is flaky and the lack of Android support and a better Tidal GUI had me looking elsewhere. I love the Hiby but it does not sound as good as the...

The wifi is pretty much dead and now that I have Tidal, I'd like a wifi DAP to replace it with for around $2-300. I'd like: Tidal and Spotify compatible. Similar or better SQ Line out Physical volume control (when not using line out) not deal killer This is mainly for a channel stereo setup...

Hi Guys I have been happy with my Pio DAP but miss having Spotify or Pandora available. I love the dual sd slots, dual outputs, line out setting, etc. Looking for recommendations that would sound equal or better and have access to all the missing apps. Here are the specs to my pio...

Actually, my first DAP was and is an Ipod Gen 5.5 which at the time and long after was well received for its' Wolfson DAC. The Pioneer is my first modern DAP and even through these ear buds...

I'm expecting my first DAP and it has a 2.5 mm balanced output jack. I want to use this output to connect to my very nice home stereo. I wanted balanced out vs. HF out because I heard that the output was higher which I assumed would be closer to connecting a CD player etc into the stereo. This...

I've been waiting for the M9 to get to Amazon and B&H had a new Pioneer XDP-30R on sale for $139,shipped, no tax. Did I make a mistake or is even the M7 better? thx bob

I have a very nice 2 channel home stereo that I want to play CD to FLAC rips on. I want to sit on my chair 15 feet away and have a way to browse albums, artists, songs, etc. I thought a portable dap with a long cable was going to be the only way to do this and I have no desire to use with...

Hi Guys, I need a good FLAC player with line out function, prefer volume scroll wheel, great sounding but under $200? I don't want to pay for hi rez if FLAC is as high as I will go if that helps? thx bob

Didn't use it for a while and it won't charge at all. Any ideas on where to get a replacement?   thx   bob

My daughter has had one from when they first came out and I had read rave reviews about the SQ, Wolfson DACs, etc.  I finally got my own, a refurbished 30 gb from ebay.  It seems real sensitive to headphone, IEMs. Can be very bright and  without a custom 5 band graphic like my (love them)...

I found these on sale for $54.50/shipped. I'm looking for natural punchy bass and smooth highs. The $7.00 Monoprice IEM's didn't live up to the hype for me (at any price)   Will I be happy with these or are there other $50 IEM's that would fit my needs?   thx   bob
