- Hiby R3Pro II is certified for high -resolution cable and wiring audio
- The music player has double dacs and quadruple amplification
- Incredibly affordable to only $ 199
Yes, like me, you lose the days of cute portable music players such as the iPod Mini, Hiby has the thing: a super cute and very small double DAC audio player called R3Pro II.
The R3Pro II comes in an option of orange, silver, black or green; Orange One really reminds me of my very badly lost Sony Ericsson Walkman Telephon with their orange reflexes, while others evoke memories of multiple iPods.
However, do not let the beautiful design deceive you: the specifications here are serious. According to Hiby, you are seeing a “quality pocket canyon, performance monster.” And the specifications return to that.
Inside there is Dual Cirrus Logic CS43198 DACS and AMP of Quad OPA1622 headphones capable of conducting high impedance headphones through balanced stereo cats of 4.4 mm or 3.5 mm.
HIBY R3PROII: Key characteristics and prices
Those AMP and DAC are fed by a 4,000 mAh battery with fast charge PD2.0, and are placed up to 480MW of power.
However, it does not just listen to the best cable headphones. The player is certified for the high resolution audio of wired and wireless Hi-RES and admits DSD256, PCM to up to 32 bits/384khz and MQA 8x. Bluetooth is 5.1 and there are also Wi-Fi; It can have up to 2 TB of storage through microSD.
You have APTX and LDAC to transfer a high quality sound to the best wireless headphones, and R3Pro II also works with AirPlay and DLNA for Wi-Fi transmission. It has USB-C audio, USB to S/PDIF and line outputs for connections to other audio equipment.
There are slightly different materials depending on their color choice: green and oranges have a posterior ultrasuede, while silver and black are matte.
The specifications suggest a fairly expensive device, but no: R3Pro II costs only $ 199. I would expect it to cost around 199 or a little less if it is the United Kingdom, and the US price. UU. It becomes around around au $ 300 in Australia, although we still have no confirmation of an international launch. Hopefully I arrive, because we could be seeing a new winner of the budget for our list of the best high -resolution audio players.
