Got mine today. Streaming on hi gain to test (low gain between 55-65 volume seems to do just fine) and it only gets as warm as my phone when doing intensive tasks. Very happy with it so far.

So I like the IEM Bluetooth adapters for sound, but the mic on all of them is awful. What is the best TWS for phone calls? Is the AirPod pro the only way to go (I have an iPhone) or are there other (less expensive) options to explore?

Apparently mine is in a black hole called DHL west of Atlanta. Maybe I’ll see it someday.

Ohhhhh boy

Went through a little back and forth recently with the AZ09/Pro. Got the AZ09 as a gift from Amazon, tried them, thought they were fine, but was curious about potential improvements of the Pro for only a couple dollars more. I only have an iPhone, but have a Hiby R4 ordered, but the AptX is...

And I’m sitting here still waiting for mine to leave Guangdong…

Cool, I was leaning towards the HE400SE because of price. I'm aware there's some QC issues, but I'll buy on Amazon and return if I have issues.

So I have the R4 preordered (stuck on Ready to Ship...) and I have mostly budget-ish IEMs, and am looking for an upgraded IEM as well potentially an open over ear headphone. I listen to pretty aggressive rock/metal, and pop. For IEMs, I'm thinking about the Kiwi Ear Quartet (really like the...

Oh I have the R4 preordered. Just got my shipping notification like everyone else it seems.

Same. I’ve never had a dap before. Curious if I’ll be able to tell a difference between it and my current setup with my iPhone + dongle

I do not vibe with that guys style at all, but he seems to know a thing or two about sound, so I guess him liking the R4 is a good thing.

So has anyone in the US got a tracking number yet, or have the preorders not shipped yet?

You can download and run any app in the Android app store, so I would think so

There are a lot of terms I personally don’t understand. Note decay, speed, thin vs. full. As a newb I’d probably need someone with experience to A B test with me and point out what they mean when those terms are used.

All the IEMs/Headphones I have use 3.5mm. They are all sub $100 IEMs, would I notice a different with a 4.4mm cable attached to those same IEMs used with the R4 when it comes in? Some of the ones I have are the Wan'er, Kiwi Ears Cadenza, and Simgot EW200. Considering some more expensive ones...
