HiBy FC4 adopts two ES9218PC DAC chips that support high-resolution 32-Bit audio signals. It achieves a lower distortion rating of 0.0006% and a high SNR value of 123dB promising high-quality performance for the users.

HiBy FC4-3

Independent FPGA-Based Dual Crystal Oscillators:-

The FPGA section consists of two 45.158MHz and 49.152MHz independently used crystal oscillators. They effectively protect the output signal from jitters and provides a smooth and clear audio experience.

Exquisite and Compact Build:-

HiBy FC4 has an all-metal construction. It has a rich, smooth textured finish with physical hardware volume keys available to easily adjust the volume on the go. The device looks exquisitely finished just like all the other products from HiBy.

HiBy FC4-4

Dual Headphone Outputs With Powerful Amplification Section:-

HiBy FC4 features dual headphone output ports. The device houses a single-ended 3.5mm and a balanced 4.4mm output port. HiBy has designed the FC4 with a powerful amplification section. The device gets a powerful output rating of up to 340mW @ 32Ω of load. This is a best-in-class output rating making the FC4 suitable for almost all the IEMs and some headphones too.

8X MQA Support:-

HiBy FC4 supports 8x MQA unfolding. It provides high-resolution master-recording level sound quality performance by fully unwrapping the recording to its true form.

HiBy FC4-5

Multi-Color RGB Light Indicator:-

HiBy FC4 houses a multi-color RGB indicator light that glows into different colors depending on the bitrate of the active file. It glows into Green, Blue Magenta for MQA signals, Yellow, Aqua, and Orange for PCM signals(different bitrates), White for DSD signals, and Red when the music is paused.
