HiBy Digital M300 Android Digital Audio Player,"The Gen-Z Music Player" - Discussion thread
How long does the Bluetooth playback last on battery? As the large memory smartphones are fricking expensive and almost no interesting options has microSD slot, I consider getting M300 as my music source, with jack backup if I would like to return to wired IEM. I mostly listen to my files...- bachankas

Going fully Wireless IEMs. Too soon? Or are we there yet?
Hello, Can anoyone recommend some thrid-party tips for AZ80? Soundwise I am happy with the stock ones, maaaybe a bit airier trebles would be good, but it's adjustable with app EQ. However, I think I would improve the passive isolation a bit. Once the ANC perfectly cuts the lower frequencies of...- bachankas

Pulled the trigger, got AZ80. Really nice step up from AZ60, keeping somewhat similar tuning with better detail, soundstage and features (wireless charging, earpiece insertion detection). Metal music sounds lovely!- bachankas

Got Technics AZ60. Great TWS, I feel I don't need any more for daily mobile usage. Good neutral-bright sound, trebles will need a bit EQ tuning, but overall they are comfortable and good sounding IEM.- bachankas

Got 1more Q30, thanks @regancipher for recommendation. Really nice TWS for its price. However, I think I need more "Classic", a bit deeper application. Having pretty large ears and ear canals, I sometines struggle to get a proper seal even with largest tips, and its oval Size makes tip rolling...- bachankas

Interesting, I ordered these, should arrive mid-week. My only TWS experience is my wife's Final ZE3000. Great comfort, nice passive isolation (no ANC), Good sound, but a bit too soft and warm bass for my taste and sometimes weird trebles.- bachankas

Hello, Since many years I was wired IEM team. However, about 2 months ago I bought Sivga S01 - open back wireless earbuds for sport - running, cycling etc. Despite the drawbacks of its construction the lack of cable and ease of use is amazing. I use them much more frequent than I expected...- bachankas

HiBy Digital M300 Android Digital Audio Player,"The Gen-Z Music Player" - Discussion thread
Is the direct headphone output of M300 significantly worse in terms of quality? I do not ask about raw driving power. Does it hiss with sensitive IEM? Or is it "good enough" portable player? I think that this M300 is the only real hope to replace V30 for me as a portable player with modern...- bachankas

A Review of MandarinEs Foam Tips
These new hybrid Symbio are great. I remember the Old ones being very stiff. Now they are very comfortable and improve isolation. Great companion for my Aful Performer 5.- bachankas

Looks nice, if it provides audio quality of HiBy R3 Pro (original) that would be perfect daily Walkman-style DAP.- bachankas

Aful Performer Impressions Thread
Hello, Can you recommend some hybrid (silicone with foam filling) tips with wide bore for Performer 5? I really like the sound with Spinfit CP360 or CP145. However, I would like to improve the external noise isolation a bit (city walks, commuting etc.). I have the Final hybrid Tips, but they do...- bachankas

The New HIBY R3 II is here. 4.4MM Jack; Improved Sound and Bluetooth.
Sadly the album art loading is an issue in most of DAPs which I had. DAP is nice as a small portable device to separate music from the smartphone. At least I prefer to have a music separately without any cable from my smartphone when I use it. However, I ended with LG V30 - for most of the cases...- bachankas
