This looks like the "discrete card" which has appeared elsewhere (no idea if there are reviews, though).

In theory, a tube hybrid card should be possible...

I spoke to the supplier in France, it's a prototype HIFIMAN sent to them, never tried it.
 
I took a chance and bought it , can return within 15 days. I'll see how it compares to my Minibox (mk1)
 
will report back soon

I think it's the original classic card, which is a bummer

HAHAHA if someone made a hybrid tube card I would probably cry....
I have a thing for tubes, mmmm tubes haha.
 
BUT for now I think I may just settle back into reality and enjoy what I have.
 
I am actually enw to the whole HM901 and amp cards thing.
I know there are rare cards out there, one of which I have coming to me, however where do you guys keep tabs on what is being developed etc for the HM901/802 etc?

I have a question for the HM-901 community - I just recently purchased an HM-901 from eBay for a good price and I want to make sure that I indeed receive an HM-901. Is there any way to further differentiate an HM-901 from an HM-802 apart from the markings on the removable cover on the back?
 
Thanks!

Settings --> system version. HM-901.
I just noticed on mine that product ID is : UNKNOWN !
Do you have the same ? Is it relative to the firmware ? TAICHI UI2, kernel version k3.0, UI version 2.001.
Bought new to an official seller.

  Are there any known compatible 3rd party chargers ?
 
Also any spare higher or same capacity compatible batteries - anyone knows of ?
 
Thanks guys


I know that Hifiman worked for some time to get the batteries right and I have heard of no after market batteries and I wouldn't try any. As far as the charger goes, the same thing.

OK thanks mate - I'll buy the original from head direct
 
This link below - just means you can charge externally ? Correct - still need original charger ?

And HM901s/901/802/650 all have same batteries and chargers ?

Yes, that's how I understand it. It's only a stand wherein you mount the battery for charging. The original charger has to be used with it.
This also means that you can only charge one battery at the time unless you buy an aditional charger for the stand.
 
As for your second question, the answer is in the link you just posted ... and it's a yes.
