HIBY R6 - DAP Dual DAC Balanced Out - Great Reviews and Over 500% Funded @ Indiegogo!
Feb 24, 2018 at 9:00 PM Post #1,803 of 6,622
Anyone with Sennheiser IE80 that uses the R6? imI thinking about upgrading to these IEMs and was wondering if they would pair well.

IE80s with R6 - pair up is good, the sound is a little on a leaner side with more clarity, transparency, and better retrieval of details. With other DAPs IE80s is a little on a thicker, more congested side. But what's I like here is MageSound 8-ball controls which let you shape the sound, especially the low end. For exampe, starting with "Overall temperature" you can add more body to the sound while still keeping the clarity and the transparency, and the "Bass extension" lets you tune it from light to deep while giving more weight to the bass, while "Bass texture" from fast to thumpy helps you tighten the mid-bass so it doesn't spill into lower mids. 8-ball dsp effects are very powerful and give you a very precise control in sound shaping.

Joe, when does the Indiegogo campaign end?
I might pledge for one unit on Tuesday (payday) if it's still available :)

We should still be on IGG then :)

@Joe Bloggs

I just grabbed a set of 8 ohm

Will confirm issue and shrug shoulder and walk way having learned something or...ask specific folks some very specific questions

Chris, which 8 ohm IEMs? Just curious.

Hypothetically there could be a pair of 8 ohm IEMs that is 8 ohms flat across the spectrum and sound exactly the same on the R6 as on any other player... :sweat_smile:

Yesterday sunddenly I can't copy song to my R6 SS SD card, it say device stop response but my Win7 can read the card and can delete file from it.
I can copy the song to the card if using card reader. And also I can copy song to the internal memory, just can't copy to the SD card. Before that I already copy around 130GB song
to the card through R6. Already do factory reset still same. Don't know what problem now.

I have a pair of AAW W900 on the way and wonder if this would be a good pairing for them. I also ordered a balanced 2.5mm vitesse silver cable with it. Will this give it the power it craves? Cause the W900 gets better sounding with more power.
Also how long will it take to deliver if I purchase a black aluminum one?

Hello saykong,

Does your computer complain about wanting to scan your card for errors if you connect it to your computer using a card reader (and not the R6)?

Hello, the aluminium units should be delivered more quickly, perhaps sent out next week.

How does Spotify work on these? I had a fiio x5iii and the internet was so so slow on it that I ended up selling it and just using my phone

A few users complaining about a mysterious slowdown in the initial buffering for Tidal tracks. But internet speed test results are ok and nobody complaining about Spotify usage :)
