Further Information: Here's a Hiby R3Pro Saber 2022, in grey, screen protector factory-installed, with the original packaging and accessories, plus a brand-spanking new black case bought from Minidisc (for around $30) this month. Used the DAP about 15 hours; the case is new. Bought the DAP from MiniDisc on 27 April 2023; I'll include the invoice. A couple of teensy scratches on the screen protector--you can't see them easily until the DAP is off and you're looking up close. Otherwise looks and functions as new. 

It's on the latest firmware, I think, but you'll wanna check. It accepts SD cards of up to 1 TB SD card (that's what I used). If you go that route, you'll want to either be careful with your folder structure or be at peace with the fact that the DAP can only index 20,000 tracks. 

It's not an Android player, but supposedly does streaming from a couple services, and it's got Bluetooth. I've heard mixed reports on its streaming functionality and wouldn't buy it for that purpose. Hiby's OS is pretty good as far as these things go. I've used lots of primitive DAPs and this one strikes the best balance of size, capacity, and functionality that I've seen. Never tried the headphone amp section; only used the line out. 

I'd stock it with a honkin' SD card and stack it with a Chord Mojo2, as their dimensions are nearly perfect for each other.  Get yourself one of those short USB C to USB C cables, or a USB to micro cable, or Hiby's own USB C to coax adapter, and you got yourself a wicked transport and DAC/amp.

Mind you, I don't have a Mojo and can't vouch for this, but man, if I DID have a Mojo, that's what I'd do. Don't be afraid to use a couple small sections of Command strips to weld 'em together. They stick like heck, are low-profile, and come off cleanly. Otherwise, you can find a 3D printed case on Aliexpress. 

If you want to try stacking it with your Mojo, lemme know. I have a tiny USB-C to micro cable that'd work really well. We can work something out, Paul McCartney-style.

I paired this diminutive DAP with my Shure KSE 1200 electrostatic amp and IEMs. Loved the form factor, but preferred the sound of my (4x more expensive) Dethonray DTR1+ DAP. 

So, yeah. Got DAP if you want it.  

If you happen to want to run a pair of Sennheiser IE series IEMs from the 2.5mm balanced out but, like me, hate Sennheiser's stock cables, lemme know and I can hook you up with a BNIB cable (listed elsewhere) from Null Audio with connectors that work very well with the IE series.
