This is my review of the Hiby R6 DAP. I'll share what I like and dislike about this device and whether or not I think it's worth the asking price of $500+
Another issue I found is that your MSEB sound settings do not save when flipping from FLAC to MP3, so you'll have to go into the MSEB menu to activate when switching to different formats, really annoying. This is most definitely a fix that Hiby can fix through a software update (if they ever do) They have been really slow to rollout any new updates including a fix for missing album art.

The DSD audio thing is a huge setback, really what about if you have a playlist setup...I mean, who wants to swtich profiles back and forth? Can the EQ allow different profiles? Thanks.

No doubt, I had to go into the MSEB to activate the levels several times last night, REALLY annoying. It's like the levels turn off when going between FLAC and MP3. As for DSD, in order to get change the levels for it you'll have to put it in PCM mode that makes it sound muddy as hell. The EQ doesn't make much difference like MSEB. You cannot do presets on EQ only MSEB. I'm super surprised that other reviewers haven't mentioned this...or maybe not if they are sponsored.

needs a lot of work on your reviews man... appreciate you mentioning the bugs. but just saying it sounds amazing don't mean jack shit. what are the songs you listened to when reviewing the device. how did they sound ? if you say the bass felt like this & the imaging was like this in this song, then anyone who have listened to that song or know it will have an idea about what you are talking about. Olso whats the IEM/Headphone you used in reviewing this ?

I ordered the exact model like you have a month ago. The unit didn't arrive yet, I do have some question if you don't mind. 1. Do you think Hiby R6 could drive big headphones like Fostex TH900 or Sennheiser HD800?( I own Fostex TH900) 2. Some forum on the internet said it has noise problem and also Wi-Fi problem during Spotify or Tidal? I'll be really grateful if you can answers my questions. Thank you

Album are issue is the same as for the R3. You need to resize the artwork to 500 pixels or smaller. Anything larger and it can't be displayed. I figured that out a while back and created a setting in DBPowerAmp to automatically resize all my album arts to 500 pixels. Turns out, this fixed some issues with other applications with similar album art size limitations that aren't documented.

Eight hours battery is not good battery life. Sony ZX2 has about 30 hours battery life. That is good battery life.

It's more like 12 hour battery life if you are not using the balanced plug, but damn 30 hours is good.

67spankadelik Its not about listening 8 hours continuously, if you only have 8 hours listening it mean if you listening to music 2 hours/day you must charge it every 3 days and battery has it charge cycle Im a frequent flyer, my fligt time is about 10 hours per trip, some time i got 6 hours transit time, and always listening music when flying, 8 hours? It mean i cant hear music when transiting in dubai and istanbul.

Hey man, I had a couple of questions about the device. How is the power with the Zens? Do you need an external amp or is it enough (balanced)? Also, did you get it from the kickstart page or where? How long did you wait? Not to be a bother or anything, just wondering :)
@techgum9743

Hi Jacob, The Hiby R6 runs the Zen's decently about 70% but an external amp will give it the full potential. Yes, I got it from the Indiegogo campaign and got it last month. If you have any other questions, let me know.

Hi, I don't think it's an issue that R6 can't change the sound when it's playing DSD, I have Cowon Plenue 2 and it can't change the sound as well, at the top of the screen it shows the status is "Native TX sound"
