If I order one of these tonight, roughly how long until I have It? I live in the uk

It's a surprise.... SS versions takes longer than aluminium versions

Did you get a tracking number or had the r6 suddenly appeared on your door one morning?

I received an email when it shipped. It arrived five days later (western US), earlier than the email prediction

Does the coax out cable that came with the player allow bypassing of the Hiby’s internal DAC? (In other words, can I use the Hiby’s coax cable as an input to my McIntosh D1100 DAC/preamp?)

Thanks.

@Joe Bloggs
I've had an issue where using the line out will permanently affect the players sound and volume of the headphone outs until it goes through a reboot. I'm hoping that this issue may be resolved via a future software update. As it currently stands this is just an inconvenience, but it makes the device's headphone outs sound awful and the volume gets significantly quieter.

Coax out is a digital signal. The Mcintosh will then turn those zeros and ones into audible waves. In other words yes.

This is the only problem I've had with my player and like you said, it's a minor inconvenience.

Thank you. Unfortunately, no Mc special sauce for me right now as our electricity has been out since yesterday afternoon. Fortunately, the Hiby has been helping me through these difficult times.

Keep refreshing those emails eh? I'm the same and I'm on 808 in the uk. I think it's the not knowing that kills rather than the wait itself!

I don't think I used the @Joe Bloggs before and maybe he didn't see my post.
But, if Hiby ever wants to create a new model, swap out the processor for the latest snapdragon, add a sim tray, and make the screen 5.5+ inches, they could easily charge whatever price they need to to make themselves happy as well as us consumers. They'd essentially have what the LGV30 should have been. I'm sure some people would want a camera, but honestly, even if Hiby shipped it without a camera at all, it'd still be worth it to me.
If they ever partner with a phone manufacturer, I want that update asap lol.

Sorry to piggy back on this discussion. If there is a single ask for Hiby and other Chinese DAP vendors, it will be to open source the android and associated software. I tend to feel that in most cases, their hardware are excellent, but their software is unbelievable ****.

We do plan such an update

What about the embedded artwork or something like folder.jpg (that you put in the same folder as the tracks of the album)? Do these come up as options?

I think the technical right solution is to use properly support metadata in the individual audio file.
I felt that it might not be a good assumption not to assume there is a separate art file for individual audio track.
ID3 tags today should be fairly well documented.

Or maybe an option in the settings to choose between artwork from metadata or by parsing folder.jpg.
