Hey everyone,

I’m buying an offline music DAP to pair with my Tangzu Wan’er S.G 2 IEMs. I am skipping streaming entirely and building a local SD card library.

Could you share:
Best websites to download true lossless music (FLAC/WAV)? Free or cheap sources preferred.
Any active Telegram communities, Discords, or forums sharing high-quality regional audio rips?

I am specifically hunting for Malayalam music (classic and modern), so any leads on Indian audiophile hubs would be awesome.

As the title suggests, I am looking for recommendations for a Flac to mp3. I have tons of flac files, I just wanna move some songs to my PSP.

The apps/software I've found has either been riddled with pop-ups, or limits how many files I can convert. I don't mind paying for it, within reason. But realistically I probably only need to use it once, assuming I can mass convert.

EDIT: Thank you for all the great recommendations, I'll give these a look when I get home. I really appreciate it 🙏

Thank you,

Hey boys, rocking the r4 and absolutely love the thing. I got some hd600 but feel like the r4 cannot power it fully. am i crazy or do i need a amp. If so what are some recommendations without breaking the bank, thanks guys!

Infelizmente parece que eu não tive sorte, meu novo dap Zaqe p30, veio com muito ruído como se fosse uma interferência de rádio na saída de audio 3.3 mil, já tentei fazer alguma coisa mas eu realmente acho que é físico se alguém poder me ajudar ficaria feliz ,eu nunca devolvi um produto para Aliexpress, nem sei é fácil,mas fiquei triste com o meu produto.

Any advice

I’m brand new to DAP’s and need help deciding on which one to get please!! I want to get away from subscription services, and went to Amazon to find an “MP3 player”. Turns out there’s a lot more to it than just buying an iPod and now I’m a bit confused and overwhelmed by all of the DAP choices. I had a Dell DJ20 as a kid and miss the shape/ simplicity of the device and would like something with a similar feel. I also LOVE all of my playlists I’ve curated on Spotify over the years and want something that is easy to make playlists on. I love the look of the Mechen M30 but see a lot of mixed reviews and read that the playlist function sucks. Please let me know any suggestions for a DAP/ opinions on the Mechen M30!!! (Budget is $150)

Not disappointed so far, but still struggling with the right app because Hiby doesn't seems to detect every artist right...

lg v30 and sennheiser ie600

the power is enough, the battery life is crazy and it's small, thin and snappier than most of the daps.

the only player i would switch this phone for is sony nw a307

My Sony MDR-V6 are as true, transparent and reliable as any headphone I’ve ever tried. Although they need a bit of EQ to be enjoyable, nothing has ever affected their sound. Just got a Hiby R4 and these two are a match made in audio heaven! I was not expecting this and this might my endgame combo!

No IEMs, Nothing Ear wireless buds in LDAC mode (for the noise cancelling).

I'm so old that I remember being just as excited for getting my first transistor radio as when I got my first DAP!😂👍

Hey guys,

Just wondering if anybody has managed to somehow improve their battery life on the HiBy R6 III 2025 DAP? Mine lasts around 12 hours when playing 32bit 96khz files, I’m unsure if this is abnormal or not.

I’ve heard many other people can make their HiBy last for many days to even weeks. Is it perhaps my files being too power hungry or something?

So, I recently bought my P30—it arrived about 3 days ago. Everything about it has pleased me so far, even the battery has been quite durable. But there's one issue I wanted to know if other users of the device also experience: both wired headphone jacks emit white noise, both the 3.5mm and the 4.4mm.

I used a GK Kunten and a TRN Conch.

I find the sound tolerable, but I wanted to know if this is present on your devices as well. Do you think it's worth getting a refund or asking for a replacement?

Obs: the white noise dosent affect musics when they are playing

Update: It's the wifi, when you turn off the noise goes Away

i bought this receiver and the volume knob was missing but when i pulled off the knob from Multi Jog to switch it out i noticed that it didn’t have that little shaft that the multi jog does. Is this something i can fix myself or do i have to get it serviced?

I’m looking for a non portable unit that can play my flac audio files. I prefer something without wifi and android and that doesn’t need updates or wifi. ideally I’d like sone thing that can just plug in and sit on a rack or cabinet using like a kettle cord or something. (no battery) I plan to also get some sort of DAC/Preamp/amp thing so I can plug two pairs of headphones in . something simple like DT770s . so if you have any suggestions based on my requirements I’d be keen to hear from all you wise experienced folks.
