Activating the dual dac mode is currently unavailable on the iOS app. An update is on the way soon, I hope.- bbqtngs

Sennheiser IE900 Review, Measurements, & Harman Target Talk
Interesting. Unit variance/margin for error with the sennheiser cables then. My IE900 spins like a Booker T with the stock cables.- bbqtngs

Sennheiser IE900 Review, Measurements, & Harman Target Talk
I've just gotten IE900 for myself and had the same issue on the left side. I determined that it was an issue with the 3.5mm cable because the 4.4mm worked fine. After reaching out to Sennheiser support, I decided that getting a new cable was probably inevitable anyway. They required me to send...- bbqtngs

Reply to review by 'bbqtngs' on item 'FiiO BTR15'
I've just gotten my BTR15 and have done a firmware upgrade. However, I don't see the dual-dac mode within the app. Maybe it's an iOS issue with the app?- bbqtngs

Yup. I've had this issue too. Seems like a buggy OS- bbqtngs

Yup. Same here. But I'm not fussed about it. I only charge my device when it gets to about 20% or less. Fingers crossed that the Hiby OS (skinned android) has some battery management built-in. Otherwise I hope they can replace batteries as a service.- bbqtngs

Sounds like something I went through. A restart worked for me. Although I haven't added new music since I last had the issue. Once I get a new album I might try again. But I think I'll be using the wifi upload feature.- bbqtngs

If you still love Etymotic ER4, this is the thread for you...
So my ER4XR has come apart. While trying to remove the cable from the right housing, collar around the housing has come off and with it the socket, exposing the internal cabling and I could pull the driver out halfway. Got in touch with Amazon customer support as my unit is only 11 months old...- bbqtngs

Thanks. A restart of the device sorted the issue. I'll see what happens when I next add music (really rare these days with all the streaming services available.) Still hoping that Hiby will enable European characters. This will be great for me as much of my library is classical music and having...- bbqtngs

Yes these were files from an external. I restarted the device and it fixed it. Probably an SD mounting issue? The new tracks that I loaded were indexed in the app but none of them played, including the previously loaded tracks. Tracks included MP3, ALAC, FLAC.- bbqtngs

Just found another issue - after scanning music in the Hiby app, all the albums and artists are populated; however, when I try to play anything in the app, it comes up with 'File Not Found'.- bbqtngs

Yes. I've just done this. It works even with the SD card being 'external'. Thanks everyone. Still very odd that the migrating of data will cause a firmware crash.- bbqtngs

Yes, I have formatted the SD card as 'internal'. At the moment, downloading from Apple Music is fine but it only goes into the internal 64gb rom. Both the system and Apple Music have told me that I've run out of storage and cannot download anymore music. When I try to 'migrate data' to the SD...- bbqtngs

HiBy R6 III (Gen 3) Android digital audio player, Dual ES9038Q2M, Class A / AB amplification switch, Snapdragon 665, Open Android 12 OS, DSD512 / PCM768
I just tried to ‘move content to the SD card’ thinking that it would allow me to download more music from Apple Music. Every time I try to initiate the ‘move’, the player resets. Occasionally the reset causes the device to boot into the bootloader saying that android system has failed to load...- bbqtngs

I just received my Hiby R6 III and I'm enjoying the Class A amplifier mode. I'm hearing/imagining a faster bass attack on class A. Most notably when I'm listening to large orchestral tracks. I also thought that the bassline in 101 Eastbound sounded more 'fun' on the Class A mode. (it's all in my...- bbqtngs

it's slightly stiffer than the stock cable - definitely not super stiff. I was able to comfortably coil it (I don't know how to measure cable softness)- bbqtngs

I've received the cable I ordered on Ebay. I quite like the right angled connectors - it makes wearing my ER4XR over-ear heaps more comfortable.- bbqtngs

I've been using my Alessandro MS1i for the past two weeks after years of keeping them in the case - ordered some new 'bowl' pads to get a little more comfort/endurance out of them.- bbqtngs

Oh!! please don't think I meant it that way. It was merely my unsolicited thoughts around cables. <3 I'm completely agree with you regarding microphonics on these cables.- bbqtngs

I'm not entirely convinced that cables make a significant difference to the sound, however, I can appreciate getting a replacement ER4XR cable to have a much more manageable length and perhaps an improvement in microphonics??- bbqtngs
