Hiby FC6 - another R-2R USB dongle
Oct 29, 2023 at 8:48 PM Post #286 of 417
Why is it all my MQA tracks from Tidal read MQA 44.1 KHZ and not higher. I’m using Fast normal filter. They max out at 44.1 khertz with or without oversampling setting. This is true with Roon through my computer or tidal iOS app. I’m using the latest firmware. PCM flac tracks reads higher up to 96khz on tidal

Do the letters "MQA" appear on the readout?

If so, they are all being decoded to MQA 16x internally. MQA requires that the ORIGINAL sample rate be shown, however.

Listening to wp900 on fc6 today, I like the min phase filter with v2 beta firmware. Seems like the sound is slightly smoother, more resolving? Like a bit of edge has been taken off. Static noise is through the roof with hdr on, need to off it. One complaint I have is loud popping sound on usb disconnect. Some dongles do that, some do not. Need to remember to unplug/remove headphones before the usb. I assume it's a hardware limitation for fc6, but can anything be done through firmware to address this?

Hello,
Is there anywhere available in Europe the Hiby? Can not find it anywhere.

Moreover if anyone hs HD600 and/or K701. Can you tell me if FC6 has good synergy and power enough to drive these cans?
Or should I look for Mojo 2.

Thanks

I looked through our list of European distributors and found the FC6 available at the following:
https://audeos.pl/pl/searchquery/hiby+fc6/1/phot/5?url=hiby,fc6
https://zococity.es/search?q=hiby+fc6&type=product&options[prefix]=last

I believe it is sufficient to drive the K701, cannot comment on synergy in my position.

hi, I ordered fc6 and it's coming soon, I'll update it immediately to firmware 1.06, any opinion on the nos mode with hdr active? Is there a real difference, or is it a bit like with filters, that not everyone (I'm one of them) can hear the difference? Thank you
