That would make sense. However, seeing how many DSD enthusiast exist around here it might be a selling feature to use it as an upscaler/dsd converter The needed hardware is already there.
When you connect the N7 to an external DAC, you have put the DAC, LPF, and Headphone Amplifier into idle. That's why the battery hold good. My wild guess is, you can around 20 hours per charge cycle?
Hello everyone! I spent a bit of time today with the N7 and the EQ which is part of the Hiby app. I listen to flac files with the mest 2, and historically have liked to give a small bump at 2 and 4k to increase the immediacy on the mest 2, which is a bit flatter at those frequencies than other monitors. Unlike on my Hiby, I kept 1k and below at stock tuning because bass is quite good with the N7 and mids are firm.
I find the EQ works great and only the smallest of adjustments were needed to give me that little extra clarity and presence. Stock tuning still sounds great, but I am quite happy that EQ sound shaping is in play with the N7.
We all hear pairings differently and expanding beyond what’s “not so good” with XE6 would helpful to better understand what you’re hearing.
N7’s synergy with FiRs IEMs, stock and rolled cables are pretty darn good. If you’re hearing bass and mids bleeding into each other, I recommend using Class A with FiRs.

Funny thing happened this morning with the N7. I had it cooking for a while on class A, I always feel like the warmer the better but that of course is a silly thought. Anyway I played a track I use regularly for reference and it was so spacious, layered, and beautiful that once the track completed I immediately shut the unit down and am done listening for the day. It was as if the sound was so perfect I didn’t want anything else to disturb the memory. Has anyone else had that experience? Strange hobby this is…

I completely get your point.
I often play track by track looking for the next kick but I find it also very satisfying to stop a listening session with one track which completely captivates you and keep that feeling for the upcoming sleep or work or whatever comes next
I find the pairing of n7 and c9 great!
It seems that the player realizes its potential even better thanks to the connection to the amplifier,
and the fit is good,
I'm a bit wondering about claims I've seen about the level of detail and resolution of the n7
I actually find it super detailed,
The dynamics and micro dynamics are also excellent.
I'm in agreement. The inconsistency with other impressions are likely down to transducer choice. It's impossible not to hear how much detail N7 produces on an Odin, Storm, TH900 or a Utopia.
I received an answer from HiBy.
"The HiBy Music application is a free high-quality music player designed for HiFi that can be installed directly on Android-based devices from the Google Play Store. Currently, only the Tidal feature has been integrated into the Android HiBy Music app, and we have plans to integrate the Qobuz feature in the future. Please stay tuned."

HiBy Pro Music app is available on N7 but error updating through the app.
2.0.7 was available on all HiBy devices and was able to update my RS8 successfully yesterday. Qobuz Music module was added and you can switching between Tidal or Qobuz in the app settings.
Update: 09:33AM EST
Launch Google Play Store and checked for updates – there were no updates.
Then received Android notification to allow HiBy Music app to install update.
Tapped "Allow"
HiBy Music player updated and prompted to reboot N7. Reboot.
If you want to hear my opinion without comparing yet: do you prefer UApp over Qobuz?
The answer to your question can be answered similarly I suppose.
The only reason I see is if there are certain plug-ins dedicated to the specific app such as Convolution filters etc

Pretty much this if you want to use PEQ, MSEB and plug-ins with Tidal or Qobuz. The only limitation is – like Tidal – you're unable to download tracks to play them offline.
Was waiting to see if the new "Dynamics" plugin was added via OTA and perhaps HiBy may have made that plugin exclusive to HiBy DAPs.
I've been using all day yesterday and the plugin brought some welcomed PRaT, mid bass fullness and impact to UM Indigos.

reacts. That is what all of us are in this for.
