Anyone having trouble with the device randomly locking up and automatically connecting to the last bluetooth device? Thanks.

Can it be used simultaneously (that is without settings changes) as HibyLink server and as a Bluetooth receiver?

I tried the Andromeda. Nothing to comment, tbh. A little hissy, but less than Mojo2, on par with DX300, not quiet like Topping G5. I couldn’t detect practical change in tonality. It sounds like Andromeda.

The Gizaudio review said there was no hiss with the same IEM (Andromeda).

It depends on the music. When I listen to louder pop or rock music, the hiss is practically irrelevant. However, when I listen to music with very black background, say, Goldberg’s Variations or Bach’s violin partitas, this hiss is audible and can be somewhat intrusive. It’s not as noisy as my DX300, but I can’t say it has a black background. Very few sources do when driving andro 2020, to be fair.

Are you sure it is DAP hiss rather than master tape hiss?

You can prepare empty (zero level) file and test.

With the Andro, which source gives you a perfect black background?

From the top of my head: Topping G5, especially if I use it as pure amp. I usually run my DAP through G5 to listen to Andro.

I remember that A&K SP2000 was pitch black, but I tried that a very long time ago, so I’m not sure.

Wow 4.4mm. must be such a great buy

 

[HiByMusic]

Does it support cue files?

Yes

 

[InvisibleInk]

Yes

Does using CUE files help with a better outcome vis a vis the 15,000 track limitation of the database?

Where is the limit specified?

It is fairly common knowledge among R3 users that I picked up browsing threads like this.

Here's an example: https://www.head-fi.org/threads/the...oved-sound-and-bluetooth.872288/post-14759926

Happy digging!

So at the moment it is just a guess. And not sure why that 2018 thread has got confusing subject update. Just a mess.

If you want confirmation we can just ask @Joe Bloggs or @HiByMusic.

It’s not just HiByOS, but also related operating systems from xDuoo and Shanling that have database limits. If you browse for albums or tracks using the folder views there is no limits. Only if you browse by Album or Artist will you encounter databse limitations.

Oh, I do not know that the Topping G5 can be used as a standalone amp, have you tried G5 with Mojo2?
