HiBy R5 II

Employing flagship-grade Class A amplification in this mid-level Android DAP, the R5 uses a discrete Class A balanced amplifier circuit capable of continuous high-power output, with abundant reserves of power for all genres of music. Converting power with ease for the most dynamic compositions, the sound is clear and full.

Discrete output stage

Featuring 4 independent push-pull amplifier channels with 270° drive angles built with discrete components, including 8 high power matched bipolar transistors, the R5 provides excellent current output power and control over variable loads. Enable Class A head amp mode for superior audio performance! THD reduced to 0.0006% at the amplified output for unparalleled realism.

Dual high-performance DACs for stunning musical resolution

The dual ES9219C DACs natively support high-resolution DSD256, PCM768kHz/32bit formats, with SNR of 130dB and THD+N below -112dB. Featuring high-precision output voltage, it ensures that the most accurate signal is provided to the Class A amplifier section for amplification; it also supports integrated DAC amplifier output (economy mode) for excellent low power consumption and extra-long playback time.

Dual independent crystal oscillators, FPGA clocking algorithm

Use of dual independent audiophile crystal oscillators at 45.158 MHz and 49.152 MHz provides high-precision synchronization for all audio events in your music

Low-cost audio components naturally pave the way to quality sound

The use of 163 high-precision resistors, 19 Panasonic tantalum POSCAPs and 4 ELNA electrolytic capacitors suppresses power supply ripple as much as possible, producing silky black backgrounds.

Very long playback time and great sound.

With a 4500 mAh battery that delivers over 35 hours of playback time* (*in economy mode), go days without worrying about recharging! 10 hours of playback time available even in Class A amp mode for maximum dynamic control and unprecedented sound quality.

Great display for the win!

Huge 4.7" 720p color display in a compact package for perfect viewing and control of your albums.

GRATAMENTE SORPRENDIDO

Compré dos reproductores y casualmente uno de ellos no se encendió. Para colmo fue el segundo.es decir... pasé unos días familiarizandome con el primero para regalárselo a mi mujer. Me puse en contacto para comentar el problema y al momento me enviaron otro,sin complicaciones...y el que llegó va perfecto. Calidad sorprendente!!!... super satisfecho con la compra y el servicio.

Very good player and on offer for a reasonable price

Very good player with a very good sound. I bought it, because it not only supports WiFi and Bluetooth, but also you can download Android Apps, which means I can use Amazon Music over WiFi and don't need to connect my smartfon to the play via Bluetooth to use Amazon Music. And it supports 4.4mm balanced and Class A, which really improves the sound even more. I got problems with the 3.5mm though. It worked initially, but then it stopped working and I can only hear a hissing, cracking noise. Maybe it's a software problem. At least I hope so.

Conclusion: For under €400 an absolutely steal and would buy again. Zococity has delivered it fast and safely packaged to Germany. No problem at all. Thanks! :)

Muy buen sonido

Me gusta su sonido mejor que el fiio x5 que tenía el Android más fluido que el fiio que se cuelga continuamente. El Hybi es fluido y tiene todo tipo de entradas balanceadas la bateria es duradera y si se pone en clase A el amplificador suena muy cálido eso si agota la bateria antes, dependiendo el volumen y si estás escuchando alta definición. En resumen creo que si es por su precio un buen reproductor teniendo en cuenta que es uno de los reproductores de gama de entrada hacia arriba mejor que otros de su clase pues mueve cualquier auricular
