Is there anyone who tried to pair isine20 with hiby r6? Is hiby r6 strong enough to drive the fullest of isine20?

I did. It is strong enough, but it still needs EQ applied

Hi!

The cable with built in dac/dsp is built for iphones if i remember it correctly?
Is it possible to connect it to a androidphone if you get a lightning to usb C dongle?
The functions of the buttons is irrelevant for me in this case, im mostly interested in the dac function.

No, not possible I'm afraid. Lightning and USB-C are slightly different animals

Makes sense i suppose. Do they need heavy eq:ing to sound good? Or does a good amp/dac solve most of the issues? Im sort of on the fence if i should go with i10/i20 or hold off and go with the rha cl2

Hi George! Mind to share your eq setting?

Best you have a skim through this thread. I use mine with an iPhone and Cipher cable

Will do. Thanks for the help though!

Hi George! Mind to share your eq setting?

I have been playing with the EQ settings presented earlier in this thead, haven't been able to create something better by myself since iSine20 requires variable Q values and those aren't possible from my typical app, Hiby... This is a big reason why I keep recommending them with the cipher cable, it just is much simpler to get good result

YoureY going to have to try yourself. Plenty of people swear they NEED heavy eq. I hate silicone tips and use Comply with my iSine 20. I've tried several suggested eq settings that have been suggested, and I simply don't like them. I like these straight out of my DAC/AMP or LG v30 using Comply foam tips. So at the end of the day, it's gonna depend on you

Has anyone tried is20 with rme adi 2 dac?

Adi 2 has low noise for iems, 5 Band Parametric EQ and crossfeed.
Ashamed to say, but currently I'm listening to isines directly from PC (APO EQ), because bg noise from Rega Ear is just too much.

Hi, is it possible to recognize - without opening the box - what version of the Cipher cable is in the iSine10 / iSine20 box? Date of production, product code, other?

Looking to do some tip rolling for my 20s, trying to get a better fit in my right ear. I heard spinfits are good, any other suggestions?

If your fit issues are ear-specific, you may want to to try using different sizes for each ear if you're not already.

Spinfit CP-155 and CP230-M (dual flange) both work well for me. Spiral dots fit with some effort in stretching and can help if you need deeper extension, b/c they are shorter in extension. On the foam side Comply 500 and 600.

It's more of an earhook issue i think, my right ear for whatever reason doesn't let the hook get the 20s seated properly. The dual flange may work to fix this, i'll give it a shot, thanks!

Gotcha. Experimenting with tips of different length (in terms of how far they extend beyond the lip of the IEM's tube) can help sometimes by adjusting the angle at which the whole assembly sits relative to your ear.
