DESCRIPTION
THE SMALLEST TIDAL PLAYER
Meet the smallest and lightest player that can reach your Tidal library. The HiBy R3 is a Hi-Res audio player packed with amazing features like an ESS ES9028Q2M DAC chip, Mage Sound 8-Ball Tuning, 11-hour battery life, aptX and lots more! You can connect this DAP to various kinds of headphones/earphones and it supports multiple audio file formats.

TINY BUT TECH HEAVY
The R3 uses a premium ESS ES9028Q2M DAC chip, 8 Panasonic hi-polymer/tantalum POSCAP capacitors and an HBC3000 DSD256 capable audio controller. This gives you a deep and spacious sound as well as an SNR of up to 117dB and THD+N down to 0.002%. Want more bass or need to reduce the treble? No problem. The Mage Sound 8-Ball Tuning (MSEB) uses multiple algorithms based on sound field adjustments and a parametric equaliser (PEQ) to adjust the sound.


LISTEN FOR LONG WITH THE HIBY OS
HiBy has used its decades of experience in software development to create the HiBy OS. This gives you the highest runtime permissions and multithreaded man-machine interaction to give you a superior audio performance. You can even control the R3 via your phone with the HiBy Link. The HiBy R3 contains a 1600mAh battery which gives you a battery life of 11 hours. When on standby, this DAP can stay alive for 60 days straight. The HiBy R3 contains a 1600mAh battery which gives you a battery life of 11 hours. When on standby, this DAP can stay alive for 60 days straight.


GOODBYE TO WIRES
Connect to other devices with Bluetooth v4.1. Qualcomm aptX lets you stream CD-quality audio wirelessly from your R3 to your headphone/device. Even though it does not have any internal memory, you can store all your music on the 2TB microSD card and carry it along with you. Connect your favourite headphone or earphone to the R3. It has a standard 3.5mm jack (with shared Line Out) and 2.5mm balanced connector. A bi-directional USB DAC interface lets you use this player as a USB audio dongle for most devices (including your smartphone).

EXPERIENCE NOTHING BUT THE BEST
Enjoy the highest quality audio possible. The R3 supports multiple file formats like DSD256, PCM up to 384Khz/32bit. Other compatible file formats include FLAC, WMA, DSD IOS, APE, DFF, WAV, AIFF and OGG. Hi-Res sound also deserves a Hi-Res display and this is what the R3 offers with its 3.2-inch IPS LCD Touch Screen. The physical buttons make it easy to use while the aluminium alloy chassis makes it more durable.
