    iFi audio GO pod + IEMs = brilliant wireless sound on the GO!

    Does anyone know what the latest firmware version is? My app says I'm on 1.52 and says "please go to settings to update the device". When I go to settings there is no update available. I see references to 1.54 in this thread but looks like that update may have been rescinded? Is there a 1.53?

    That's great. Did your dealer handle everything, or did you handle it directly with Chord/their distributor?

    Chord Mojo 2 Thread ___ [product released January 31, 2022 -- starting on page 95 of thread]

    Thanks guys. That seems to be exactly it. Below is the conversation earlier in the thread that explains it, for anyone curious. Regarding pairing with the Atrium, this is based on impressions from the show floor (so take them with a grain), but I spent quite a bit of time at CanJam NYC...

    Chord Mojo 2 Thread ___ [product released January 31, 2022 -- starting on page 95 of thread]

    Does anyone else's Mojo2 get warm when fully charged and switched off, but connected to power in "Intelligent Desktop Mode"? I'm a bit surprised, as I understood that the battery would be fully bypassed in this scenario. I'm not sure what else could be generating heat if not the battery.

    Chord Mojo 2 Thread ___ [product released January 31, 2022 -- starting on page 95 of thread]

    I'm not sure I follow. What do you mean by "Direct Out" exactly? Is that a specific configuration/setting, or do you just mean using the default state in windows when connecting a DAC via USB? If the latter, this is precisely why I am asking. When simply plugging in via USB and using...

    Chord Mojo 2 Thread ___ [product released January 31, 2022 -- starting on page 95 of thread]

    Perhaps a dumb question, and one that I'm sure was already addressed *somewhere* in this 500 page thread: when using mojo2 with a laptop via USB, is there any way to enable usage of the OS's system-wide volume control?

    HiBy R6 III (Gen 3) Android digital audio player, Dual ES9038Q2M, Class A / AB amplification switch, Snapdragon 665, Open Android 12 OS, DSD512 / PCM768

    So I decided NOT to format as internal. I had read that the unit may factory reset if you for some reason remove the card, so I figured this was the safer route. Is anyone else using streaming apps, with songs offlined to a SD card? I can’t be the only one…? I am running into major issues: the...

    Just got a fresh new 512gb SD card. Any disadvantage to formatting “as internal” if I’m never going to be swapping cards?

    Dan Clark Audio Aeon 2 Noire Discussion/Impressions Thread

    I see, thanks for clarifying. I just found an unboxing video that shows the little foam block, and it makes more sense now. I was envisioning the sort of massive foam pieces that some of my other headphones have come packaged in, which is not a useful storage solution for those cans. That...

    Thanks for the input, but I'm just not going to do this. If I am buying a set of 'phones that fold up, and come with a case for storage of them in the folded up position, I am going to store them: in the case, folded up.

    Also, while we're on the subject of volume controls and external DAC's... Anyone know how to enable volume control of external USB DAC's? I haven't located that option anywhere. And another dumb question. How do I get the Hiby app to sort an album's tracks in track number order, not...

    Thanks. Definitely let us know how it goes once you have the other case Thanks! Super helpful. Would never have thought to click that to access volume control. However, I played around with this function, and note that if you adjust the volume with this method your volume setting is NOT...

    What's the current situation with regard to DCA and the pad issues that folks have been having? I had read somewhere that DCA had come up with a new pad design. Does anyone know whether noire's are shipping with the new pads yet, and whether they're covering pad issues under/outside of...

    There is no volume control in the swipe down control panel/tray at the top unfortunately. Just a slider for brightness. Is anyone using the clear case that comes in the box? Maybe I just have fat fingers, but for me it's next to impossible adjust the volume wheel with this case on. Really the...

    HiBy R6 III (Gen 3) Android digital audio player, Dual ES9038Q2M, Class A / AB amplification switch, Snapdragon 665, Open Android 12 OS, DSD512 / PCM768

    Mine arrived today, and I have the first (of potentially many) stupid question. Since this is a software volume control, is there no way to adjust volume solely within the OS? (I.e. without first nudging the volume knob). Also, I’ve got a pair of 6xx’s on order, and I’m heartened by the above...

    Oh I see. I misunderstood, I thought you were saying you ordered the standard brown case but what showed up was similar/same as the $66 one. But I agree with you guys that stretching for the $66 one, or coming around to the green aesthetic is the better option. Thanks again y’all.

    Fantastic. Thank you both. But man, their case pricing is all over the map. $15 for green, $30 for brown, $66 for the "New R6" brown one with the flap. Does yours look like the one they have on the site here, but with button cut outs...

    Anyone have the brown leather case that’s on Hiby’s site? I prefer the color to the green, but it looks like it doesn’t have button cutouts like the green one. I’m wondering whether that makes it nearly impossible to press the buttons, like on my R5ii’s case.

    New Sony Walkman NW-A300 Series (Android 12)

    Does using a dongle DAC bypass the volume cap AND the volume warning, as well as the bass issue? (Sorry if already answered somewhere in this thread. I've been following it, but it's hard to keep up!) I already have an iBasso DC05 that I'm decently happy with in terms of both sound quality...

    Ah, that is a very good point. I'd never thought to use Arc on a DAP in this manner, but I think I might just start. I tend to use the standalone Qobuz and Tidal apps on my DAP, as that lets me offline music (which is not allowed in Arc) and I am mostly using my DAP in situations without...

    New Sony Walkman NW-A300 Series (Android 12)

    I was just about to ask the same question. Particularly since some higher end DAP's can output serious power--we're talking in excess of 1W into 32Ω, which is 10-15x what the A306 can output. The only thing I can think of is that Sony is mostly known as a consumer products company, and many of...

    Interesting question. My understanding is that yes, any app that is design to run bit perfect (like Roon Arc) will run bit perfect on any current gen Hiby player. This is because they all bypass Android's system-wide resampling. Someone else will correct me if I'm off base. I'm curious to...
