EXPERIENCE DUAL MATCHED TUBE TECHNOLOGY FOR UNRIVALLED AUDIO QUALITY

The team at Cayin have spent 4 years developing and upgrading the N8ii DAP. Cayin decided to implement features and components that many audiophiles have been requesting. The first step was to upgrade the tube circuit, and the all-new N8ii features dual matched KORG Nutube 6P1s tubes to deliver crystal clear audio. N8ii has embedded high-quality components to support the tube circuitry to elevate sound performance compared to its predecessor. Engineers at Cayin have fine-tuned the amount of feedback on the tube circuit to get a near transistor transparent sound, speed and extension while retaining the warm and mellow sound of the tubes. This implementation allows you to enjoy your music with tube warmth while keeping the audio free of distortion.

DUAL DAC ARCHITECTURE WITH ALL NEW ROHM CHIPS DELIVERING HIGH FIDELITY AUDIO

Cayin is the first audio company to adopt ROHM BD34301EKV DAC chips in a portable audio player. Engineers at Cayin have spent hours to maximise the potential of the chips and calibrate them to best suit the circuitry and deliver the cleanest audio possible. The ROHM BD34301EKV chips excel on both technical measurement and listening impression with the ability to decode up to 32Bit/768kHz PCM and 1Bit/22.6 MHz DSD512 files natively with ease. It offers two low-pass antialiasing filters in PCM mode, and three DSD Filters are available to fine-tune sound signature. To maximise the performance of the digital audio circuit, the N8ii features an enhanced FPGA stage to reorganise the incoming digital signal and pass the audio bit-stream to two pieces of BD34301EKV in mono mode, allowing for quick decoding without any artefacts.

OFFERS DUAL OPERATION MODES WITH FULLY DISCREET DUAL OUTPUT MODE

Cayin N8ii has been engineered with the highest quality and discreet components to deliver lifelike audio reproduction. The KORG Nutube 6P1 Tubes enable the Cayin N8ii to offer dual operational modes - Class A and Class AB through changing the bias current. Cayin N8ii can achieve 440mW Power Output (32-ohm load) for 4.4 Balanced Output under Class A. This helps to drive power-hungry headphones or IEMs with ease. The N8ii also offers dual output modes. Users get to choose between standard P mode and High Output P+ mode through a pull-down menu. This feature in N8ii has been upgraded with the headphone amplification circuit to a fully-discrete design. As a result, the P+ mode in N8ii will offer more vivid and different audio characteristics from the standard P mode.

EXPERTLY BUILT WITH PREMIUM COMPONENTS AND EMBEDS SNAPDRAGON 660 CHIP

The Cayin N8ii has been embedded with the highest quality components to enable a smooth and blazing fast user experience. Cayin N8ii utilises E01 and E02 audio motherboards that use discrete component audio circuitry and achieve Class A and Class AB operation modes and also uses the dual KORG Nutube 6P1 tubes. The system and MCU of Cayin N8ii use Qualcomm Snapdragon 660 with a 6GB memory and 128GB Internal Storage and Android 9.0 system along with the popular HiBy OS. Cayin N8ii also retains its signature design features, such as the built-in ring-shaped home touch key with a full-colour LED backlight. The volume knob is made of brass and uses JRC NJW1195A four-channel analogue precision volume control chip. The combination of these components working in harmony results in unmatched performance.

OFFERS BALANCED AND SINGLE-ENDED OUTPUTS + 10,000 MAH BATTERY AND OLED SCREEN

N8ii uses a 3.8V 10,000mAh high-capacity lithium-ion polymer battery with low internal resistance. It offers 11h of use (3.5 single-ended output, class AB, transistor, P mode) and about 8h usage (4.4 balanced output, tube, P+ mode, class AB). N8ii has a variety of output modes and operation modes, allowing users to make various choices and get the best listening performance according to their needs. N8ii takes an Android system and to let the users operate the N8ii easily, the screen embedded is a 5-inch OLED display (1280 * 720) that offers a crips visual experience every time you use the N8ii. After several rounds of experiments, Cayin's engineers dug out a frame structure from the entire aluminium block, giving the N8ii a more technical appearance while improving the microphonic effect to the greatest extent.

GOING A STEP FURTHER WITH HEAT DISSIPATION DESIGN AND NEGATIVE FEEDBACK CIRCUIT

The team at Cayin have spent a lot of effort on the N8ii structure to do good on heat dissipation. Since the N8ii offer Class A operation which is vivid, full and very distinctive and recognised by many audiophiles, the need for effective thermal conductivity is essential. To achieve efficient heat dissipation, the N8ii utilises a unique design chassis that does not hinder the Class A operation, keeping the device cool. The Cayin N8ii also uses a deep negative feedback circuit design and reduces the even harmonics. As a result, the overall transparency of the sound is comparable to that of transistors, presenting a clean and vivid audio experience.
