HiBy R8 II Portable Audio Player (Aluminium Alloy Version)

I have an R6iii, 2025 which is tremendous value and ideal for daily carry/ walks/ use in the car as it is not overly expensive and has a far superior sound to iPhone streaming and Bluetooth. That said, I wanted a flagship |DAP (R8ii) to drive the best out of my headphones which are IE600 (with snugz custom silicone moulds) and HD660S2's. The difference in sound is almost audio equivalent to VHS vs 4K. It's not a volume thing but a staging thing, depth, width, height. I find myself removing the headphones to see where the noise is coming from, most recently - Roger Waters - Radio Chaos - had to skip back 5 times as I simply refused to believe that the sound was from the DAP/ headphones! I can almost see the instruments, and vocal tones are richer, bass can be felt in my chest and legs (if you know you know). Battery life is on another level, even for me as a constant adjuster and tweaker. After owning the device for three weeks, I will likely need to charge the battery for the fourth time tomorrow evening. User interface is snappy, with 8GB over 4GB in the R6iii, 2025. Screen is nice and bright, with hi enough def. Hard to put down and not keep on my person at all times, but nice to come home to and use daily! Treat yourself!

It sounds good and crisp, enhanced the audio to levels that exceed beyond my imagination. And this is before I change any of the setting, once I change the settings I'm sure it will blow my mind. I use 3.5 aux to my aux Pioneer radio aux works wonderful. I am so proud of the Hiby R ll . Would definitely buy again.

Whell, what can I say, this is god, damn good stuff. R6 pro II was before and if you want my humble opinion in sound r8 II better but not like price. Those 2 daps already in category where you get really good sound from the start. I mean r8 give you little more details, more holographic effect, more mature sound which give you info about how music was recorded ( you will notice is it in big cathedral live record or made normally instrument by instrument at studio) I can't tell you is it 10 or 15 or 20 % better than r6, but it's better definitely 😁 but the other advantages of r8 is obvious: premium feel, battery 2 or even 3 times better, more power (for planar better) and only 1 downside - weight)) my pants drop off while walking at home with it at the back pocket)). Anyway thanks for MusicTeck, it arrives perfectly to Ukraine and aluminion version is gorgeous, imho better then SS because of matt finish. This DAP can be end game for reasonable price and as one device for all purposes.

It's everything that I needed and more. There's no way I'll run out of space for new music, not to mention the sound quality. Definitely worth the $.

What a unit, the sound is just mind blowing.
Thanks Andrew!!!!!
