That’s a very strong buy at A$2,785 for this condition; it sits below the A$2,985 excellent-condition peer listing and well under the A$3,499 to A$4,580 current retail range, so it reads as a genuine used-market bargain rather than an ambitious ask.
The RS8 is still a serious flagship DAP, and its appeal is the big, organic, highly resolving sound that made it a standout for people who wanted something more distinctive than the usual neutral Android player. In excellent shape, with the right accessories and battery health, this is the kind of listing worth moving on quickly if you want a top-tier portable and don’t need the newer RS8 II.

HiBy is a Chinese audio brand established in the early 2000s by Fanoble Meng and Rick Wong, two software engineers who built their expertise at a prominent Chinese audio manufacturer before founding the company. With over 15 years of specialization in portable audio, HiBy has evolved from a niche player into a recognized name in the digital audio player market, recently expanding its organizational structure to include HiBy Music and HiBy Digital as distinct product lines.
The brand's product portfolio centers on portable high-fidelity solutions, including Android-based digital audio players, USB DACs, headphone amplifiers, and earphones. HiBy is particularly known for its DAPs, which typically feature premium DAC chips from Cirrus Logic and support high-resolution audio formats including DSD and PCM up to 32-bit/768kHz. The company has recently introduced desktop-oriented products under the HiBy Digital sub-brand, including all-in-one audio hubs and complementary accessories, signaling a strategic expansion beyond portable listening.
HiBy occupies the accessible-to-mid-tier segment of the hi-fi market, positioning itself as a value-conscious alternative to premium brands while maintaining technical credibility. The brand appeals to enthusiasts seeking bit-perfect, high-resolution playback without flagship pricing, and has cultivated a reputation for thoughtful engineering and user-driven innovation. Recent product launches demonstrate HiBy's commitment to diversifying its ecosystem while maintaining focus on digital audio quality and practical design.
