The minute I opened the box to reveal my new HiBy RS8, I was impressed with the titanium construct. This device is substantial in many ways. It’s amazingly well built, feature rich and has a relatively snappy UI. The sound it produces is sweet, warm and addictive. I have acquired a few DAPs of late and the RS8 has a special place in my collection as it’s the only R2R DAP I own.
MusicTeck is easy to deal with, always responsive to my queries and speedy with getting my products out to me. Amazing people to deal with. I have purchased many products from them and they are my seller of first choice. I will always approach them first for the products they stock.
Best investment on a Dap I ever made. Still holds a preference for me 1yr later, over other latest Daps I've recently heard.
Amazing dap
I tried LP P6, AK300, N8ii, and owned Sony WM1a, WM1z, iBasso dx300, dx320, 220Max, 3Max, 3MaxTi. To me, with the RS8, I finally reached a point that is undeniably in desktop level performance, and a sound that my ears telling me it eclipse all the others. No more chasing the next dap. Finally full satisfaction. I consider it a well spent investment.
There are some very nicely written online on Head-fi, but here is a subjective take. Only have maybe 15 hours of listening time and just found iem/cable combo I really like. A lot of burn-in to go ,but initially love the maturity of the player. Bass is much more defined, more present than other Hiby players. Takes some time to get software worked out as it is not the same as R8. Slowly getting a handle on software issues. Wish that Shuffle all button was repositioned farther from previous page icon, fat fingers always hit the yellow shuffle button, so I use a stylus pen instead. Just knew when rumours of release of RS8 that I wanted item and am very satisfied on purchase. Love large battery, will try M.2 soon on USB port. Am looking for conversion software to make DSD 1024 files.So, would I buy again...YES as service from Musicteck is Super Great and very happy to get in on the first batch sold. Alot still to learn but very satisfied with product. RS8 is not conducive for carting around as is heavy/large, so not for out and about, however RS6 works just fine. Very satisfied with my purchase.
The Lotoo GT2 is an amazing DAP. The treble has amazing detail and resolution, without harshness.
The midrange is less colored than LPGT, but meatier at the same time. The bass? I have never heard bass like GT2. It's a monster only biting off the perfect amount. Bass is powerful and accurate. GT2 seems to be made for my Meze 109 Pro headphones, but sounds wonderful with all. I listen balanced. This DAP underwhelmed me initially, but opens like a flower in the sun with more play time.
Lotoo GT2 maintains Lotoo neutrality with power and grace. Do not judge this DAP until you get substantial hours in. It underwhelmed me during the first several days, but is blowing every other DAP I own away now. I own Lotoo Paw Gold Touch, Lotoo Paw 6000, Sony NW-WM1Z, and Sony NW-WM1A. I listen balanced with Meze 109 Pro, Shure SRH1540, and Sennheiser HD660S2 headphones. It seems as if Meze 109 Pro is made for Lotoo GT2, but all my headphones sound phenomenal. The midrange is less colored than LPGT, but meatier. Treble is so detailed with outstanding resolution, absent harshness. The bass? Good Lord, it is a raging monster only biting off what it should. I have never heard such beautiful bass. This player isn't fully burned in. I am at about fifteen hours. I am told GT2 will get even better. I can't even imagine.
I own virtually all the TOTL iems, and I have never heard one as detailed and moving as the PMG APX SE. The bass thumps, the treble glistens, the soundstage is all over and the definition amongst instruments is the best I have heard. It is my clear favorite now.
First, I must tell that I am not an audiophile, just a music enthusiast. Owning only headphones wanted to give a try to IEMs since I am always on the go. This being my first IEM, wanted to invest in something good so after searching in this price range and reading multiple reviews, decided to go for the Softears Enigma.
Photographs don’t give enough credit; this set is gorgeous and elegant. Engaging, without being extremely striking, so I can listen to my music while I wear suit at work or jeans on the street. But, above all, the sound. Enigma just blowout my mind. Fantastic for my taste: beautifully balance, with good clarity, detail, separation and expanded soundstage. And in the center of all that, the magic of that vocal tuning. Some audiophiles find Enigma treble recessed, not for me: everything is there in the right amount and when music asks for a stronger performance, they become energetic. And add to that excellent comfort.
I pair them with iBasso DX320MAX Ti, Mojo 2 and Lotoo PAW GT2.
I am very happy with them and grateful with Andrew and his team.
Being a lover of Dita Audio products, I was intrigued by this unknown Singapore IEM. Its drivers setup looked interesting and let me overlook the shiny steampunk-like like look I am not a fan of. With the very kind and soft assistance from MusicTeck's mrs. Grace, some fine reviews of Jomo Audio products, I decided to try it.
Well it is very good. I love acoustic music, jazz classics from the '40s to' 70s mainly. This is a fine IEM on a technical revealing side of soumd. I love Nautilus detailed and airy mids and highs the most but the bass is almost perfect too, authoritative and textured. The soundstage wide and perfectly arranged. Thank you Jomo Audio (and MusicTeck for the friendly Assistance).
