Our take on the HiBy R6 Pro Max Digital Audio Player

The HiBy R6 Pro Max is the top of HiBy's R6 line of Android digital audio players. It pairs dual ESS ES9039MS Pro DACs with an 8-way independent I/V stage built from OPA1612 and OPA1622 op-amps and ELNA capacitors, giving a smooth, analog-leaning sound with a wide soundstage. It runs open Android 12 on a Snapdragon 665 with system-wide SRC bypass, so streaming apps play bit-perfect. It suits listeners who want near-flagship desktop-grade sound in a pocketable player and prefer a warmer tuning to the more clinical R6 Pro II.
