Does the Hiby W5 upscale all source files to UAT ?
I see it has come down in price, but it just does not have the raw power of the new Fiio/Shanling ones coming out..

Unless you absolutely need that much power, then W5 already has more than enough for most headphones. If you however really need that much power, then the question I think is more of an issue on how logical a choice your headphone is rather than the output power the W5.
You can control which BT codec to use in the Hiby app. Normally BT codec, with exception of LHDC (HWA) which will want to stay true to the original music bitrate, will always try to upscale the music to the highest bitrate supported as long as it doesn't reduce performance / transmission quality. W5 will do the same but you can change the setting in the Hiby app to limit what bitrate it is using. Frankly speaking UAT while looking good on paper, is far from practical in real life, if not downright unusable. Doesn't really matters much since UAT is more for using the W5 with Hiby's own DAP and seems to have disable it on their smartphone app.
But I think I'll wait for the Qudelix... Having said that, I've only got a finite amount of patience so I might end up eating my own words and buy a BTR5 anyways! lol

Anyone know of any small transportable wifi direct lossless redbook receivers that can hook into a small DAC along the lines of this Audiophile untethered thread....If its completly off-topic, and anyone knows..please PM me.
