Great, i think i will preorder this, just need to wait till March, but it will be my birthday gift in this case I will pair it with MEZE 99C - anyone tried this setup - good results - or superb results comparing with Fiio X7 II?It can run the stock Android Tidal app along with all its functions including Tidal offline.

What Marcus says here,
"
Low-Z Bass
The low-end of the R6 is stripped of that impressive fullness and weight though overall I still find it relatively punchy and musical sounding. Certainly a bit lighter but not inherently lean or lacking in extension.
As a result, the low-Z R6 sound doesn’t deliver as much low-end power or depth with a weaker fundamental. Lower pitched instrumental notes become a little more focused on articulation and detail and less about weight and texture."
is a little disheartening to me. But i suppose the Mage 8 Ball would remedy this? Right?

Absolutely and then some. I find the tipping up the tonal warmth to about 10, with a bass texture, note thickness, and extension of 15 on 8-Ball delivers a fatter and fuller sound. You can go much further than and deliver quite ridiculous levels of weight but then it gets a bit too colored for me.

Thanks for the clarification. And a finely written review. I like how you say that ^Absolutely and then some.

User interaction is as fast as my note 4.
Not sure how devices with less RAM are gonna compete?
I'm a droid guy. Have always felt the lag even slight...you get used to your phone speed. Milliseconds mean a lot. Nobody has ever offered a robust droid with enough ram to work it. Now there is one. Why go back? Cuz it sounds better? Which one?
Hiby just broadsided this niche of droid based DAP's with a wicked torpedo.
There are no end games but there are game changers. This...for droid based devices..has just changed it.

Preorder already placed. Need to wait for 2 months now...

Sorry if I missed it in this thread already, but does anyone know what the warranty on the pre-order versions will be?

Did it ask you for a shipping address? I see that it asks for card information but nothing else. Just wondering how this works. I suppose they you send you some sort of email in the future but with my luck I would accidentally delete it...
I just clicked on other items and they do ask for a shipping address when you go to fund the project. Just not getting that for the HiBy though.
Yes i filled my address, you have to indicate card information, and you will be charged immediately, so preorder placed in this case. Hopw will be lucky enough to get on march, as this will be my first DAPDid it ask you for a shipping address? I see that it asks for card information but nothing else. Just wondering how this works.

Strange, all I am getting asked for is my card information. Nothing at all for address is on the page. As I said other projects I checked out ask for an address on the same page as the card info but I am getting nothing for adress when I go to support the HiBy. I wonder what the issue is.
Hmm... I get the address request if I choose the aluminum version. The stainless steel, both bundles and the case perk packages are not asking me for a shipping address.

Sorry, our people setting up our indiegogo page may have left out an address field in some of the perks. Rest assured we fully intend to ship in March and will ask everyone for their address again when time comes.
No promises but I was told these are doable as long as Qualcomm releases such updates for the Snapdragon 425 (and, I'd personally add, as long as there are no unforseen troubles porting the DTA architecture to the updated OS versions)@Joe Bloggs
