New budget DAP from Hiby. Volume knob is nice feature at this price.

I like the looks!

Crin called it when he dropped Zero and HBB confirmed when he dropped Khan. This was the easiest trend to see coming

This stuff is getting so predictable and quite a bit boring if I may add. It’s funny how all these trends are coming an going and all I now have in front of me are single DDs.

I am more interested in their new R6! It can switch between Class A and AB amplification

Thats an interesting offering. It looks like it doesn’t supply any more power so does that mean the DAP could power a home speaker system?

EDIT: Nvm you can do it line out to desktop amplication, seems like it is just a convenience dock then. It would be cool if it was a dock/amp so that you wouldn’t need a separate amp

I hear you. I have one hybrid and the rest are DDs

think its neat, if I ever have space for a chillout spot I’d like to do a similar system, keep it next to a lazyboy with a amp and just slap the DAP in when I’m ready to veg lol

I think its nice and a clean look no doubt but I could also just 3D print a dock that passes a line out and usb C cable from my speaker amp and pocket the extra $180

That TRN - MT4 looks like It’s going to be sub $50 too you can tell with that cheap TFZ connecter. :sob:

Nice, I just recently started looking to get a DAP. The DX170 looks nice to me but this one is also pretty interesting, I would have liked a 1080p display but for most that’s not an issue I guess.

Comparison with old R2 specs.

(R2 = 99 usd and R2 Gen 2 = 89 usd)

yeah I doubt hi res displays are top priority on these devices. Responsive is more important to me than pixel density

TRN vs TRI, wonder who wins. But seriously glad to not see another harman or Truthear Zero copy.

The new Sony daps have terrible performance (on what I assume to be non-cucked version).
