My dongle is more powerful than yours

340mW+340mW @32Ω is nearly unheard of for a USB dongle but here it is! Easily drive all your HiFi earphones and even some full-size headphones! High driving power is the stuff of miracles! It will let your earphones handle all music styles with more aplomb than ever, a higher sense of energy without sacrificing any fine control or detail!

High performance by the numbers

High SNR, low absolute noise level and low THD all at the forefront of products of this class, making for a faithful rendition of the great music at your fingertips on a black canvas.

MQA 8X unfolding

The HiBy FC4 includes MQA technology*, which enables you to play back MQA audio files and streams by a factor of 8x, delivering the sound of the original master recording.

*The FC4 features an MQA renderer now, and it is going to include MQA full decoding technology in the next few months.

The smartphone must be using apps supporting bit-perfect and MQA (e.g. HiByMusic, TIDAL), in order for MQA unfolding to occur with the HiBy FC4 connected via USB.

Dual ES9218PC DACs

Equipped with 2 of ESS technologies’ renowned ES9218PC DAC chips, set to output to each channel independently, their strong decoding power not letting go of a single musical detail.

Hi-res support

HiBy FC4

Was also considering iBasso dc06 but decided to go with the FC4. iBasso was a little expensive and lacking any physical keys to control the volume, though iBasso has an app which allows to control the volume but you need to access the phone all the time to control it. FC4 on the other hand has physical volume buttons which gives you additional control on volume. I was able to drive the Sundara at around 80% of volume and pairing it with the Timeless was superb. Overall a great buy and speedy delivery as well.
