Direct Transport Audio architecture for lossless digital audio on Android
1. DTA (Direct Transport Audio) is the name of HiByʼs full-time bit perfect
Android audio framework; it bypasses Androidʼs sample rate conversion by
modifying its audio stack to output bitperfect audio;2. The HiByMusic app
bundled with the R6 III may bit perfectly output up to and including DSD512 /
PCM 768kHz/32bit, however, many third party apps assume bad Android resampling
and will conduct “high quality” resampling internally, in which case it is
impossible to obtain bit-perfect audio from such apps despite DTA.
PD2.0 charging protocol
R6Pro II supports PD2.0 charging protocol. It is recommended to charge the
R6Pro II with a USB PD2.0 charger; other chargers may cause charging failure
or charging slowness.
