Astell&Kern at High End Munich 2024
We still don’t know what processor and ram config they are launching this with, probably on purpose at this point. My gut says it’s yet another Rockchip based A&K device 😭- MichRT

Astell&Kern at High End Munich 2024
ACTIVO C10 launched in 2019 or so for $300 US. Given Hiby has the M300 at $200 and the R4 at $250 (both with modern chipsets and an actually usable Android OS) It’ll be interesting to see what A&K brings to the table. I fight my Kann Alpha every day. There’s a few pieces I like about it, but...- MichRT

Is this going to have the same Nexell/Exynos molasses chip as the SR15 and ACTIVO C10/15?- MichRT

NEW HiBy R4
Unfortunately even the M300 doesn’t have system wide PEQ 😞 my holdout on this one is if it has system wide EQ- MichRT

Symphonium Audio - New Singaporean IEM Manufacturer
Personally I prefer Singularity. It's comfy and sounds great. I think if I had to pick 1 IEM for most folks, it would be Singularity. It's fantastic- MichRT

Per the apple website: APP2 uses a "Custom high-excursion Apple driver" Heaven forbid they use an orange one. Drivers and driver specs mean nothing without knowledge of the implementation, which is typically not shared for plenty of reasons. Using your ears is much more effective. Typically- MichRT

I thoroughly enjoyed Storm and Singularity again at CanJam NYC 2024. Also enjoyed Titan - subbass hits you like a truck. Even more enjoyable were the amazing people that make these IEMs possible. Wonderful folks- MichRT

Symphonium Audio - New Singaporean IEM Manufacturer
Do you work in industry? Have you purchased….. anything from the supply chain? Have you ever built a product, let alone an audio product? 🤔 It’s not about how many drivers, but moreso how good the config is. That takes real work, effort, testing, and care. I can sell you a $200k speaker with...- MichRT

HiBy Digital M300 Android Digital Audio Player,"The Gen-Z Music Player" - Discussion thread
I connected my M300 to my A&K Kann Alpha via C to C. M300 in “File Browse” USB mode, Kann Alpha in “USB DAC” mode. So the M300 was using the KA as a dongle DAC- MichRT

Mini Hiby M300 Review! The DAP to hopefully change DAPs 🟢 Pros: Clean and mostly stock Android 13. Few built in apps and each can be uninstalled or disabled. Great job! Good USB DAC support (It supports an A&K DAP in USB DAC mode, so it’ll support most anything lol) Great UI and overall app...- MichRT

HiBy Digital M300 Android Digital Audio Player,"The Gen-Z Music Player" - Discussion thread
I haven’t unpacked my desktop DAC to check, but theoretically it should. Joe mentioned the resampler isn’t active over USB (edit: see below), and even my modded A&K DAP can output the proper bit and sample rate with Apple Music. “Custom drivers” (which aren’t actually drivers, but that’s a...- MichRT

Been enjoying my M300 for the past few days! It’s a nifty package overall. Does anyone notice a loud “pop” when plugging and unplugging headphones from the M300 3.5mm port? Happens to me even with music paused, vol all the way down, on normal TRS and with mic TRRS 3.5mm cables ☹️ happens with a...- MichRT

Forums exist so people can learn from others. If you can’t be bothered to search for the answers to your questions (which are answered in this thread), I’m not sure why anyone would be bothered to answer them again just for you 🤷♂️ Read Joe Bloggs’ posts 🙏- MichRT

I wonder if the pro 2 will utilize all the drivers in this configuration. Unlike the Pro Like putting every surround speaker up front above a fire place, it doesn’t matter how many drivers something has if they aren’t good or implemented well 😞 Maybe things will change someday.- MichRT

Still missing LCDR. While imperfect, it’ll continue to live rent-free. Dunu Mirai, the Noble Xmems wired IEM, and Creative Ace2 Pro were also standout listens in my book. And of course: STORM- MichRT
