Cayin N3Ultra: an Entry-level Portable DAP that Delivers a Complete Vacuum Tube Audio Experience
Definitely not random. Really the double tap that wakes it, both on the screen and on the ring button. Although I do think it also did some random waking up earlier, but not anymore now, maybe after I turned it off and on again? Maybe a factory reset would stop the double tap from functioning...- eriktous

Cayin N3Ultra: an Entry-level Portable DAP that Delivers a Complete Vacuum Tube Audio Experience
Respect. I opened it because I was curious as to his issues with the software, but I couldn't actually be bothered to watch a 50 minute "video" showing mainly some guy talking. I prefer to listen to music on my N3Ultra in that time. Now, if there was a transcript I could gloss over that and get...- eriktous

Cayin N3Ultra: an Entry-level Portable DAP that Delivers a Complete Vacuum Tube Audio Experience
I noticed this too, yesterday. Hadn't seen it before, so I presume it came with firmware 1.1, but if it's a feature it should be optional and I can't find it in the settings, so looks more like unintentional behavior, aka a bug.- eriktous

Focal Hadenys & Azurys Review & Measurements
Can simply be measured, right? Plug in a TRRS cable and use a multimeter to measure on the other end if the L- and R- are connected or not.- eriktous

Cayin N3Ultra: an Entry-level Portable DAP that Delivers a Complete Vacuum Tube Audio Experience
I can see a tiny strip of light like that if I look at the unit from the side like in that picture. Absolutely not visible from the front. Well within tolerances as far as I'm concerned. Don't know about the battery, I'm not shaking my unit.- eriktous

Cayin N3Ultra: an Entry-level Portable DAP that Delivers a Complete Vacuum Tube Audio Experience
Nice to see that you're actively gathering bugs and feature requests, Andy! I have two requests myself. Concerning the pulsar light, besides just toggling it on or off, I would appreciate a brightness setting. I like the light, but the standard setting is just too bright for me at night. On...- eriktous

It already is. I ordered late Thursday evening and got an email on Friday, confirming that they had just got them in and had already sent it out to me. Was hoping to receive it today, but no such luck. Hopefully Monday. Edit: see also this post #227.- eriktous

Reply to review by 'eriktous' on item 'Kinera Hodur'
Thanks for a very nice review. I can tell you put a lot of effort in it. I'm not familiar with the artists and songs you mentioned, but do you think these would work well for rock/metal music?- eriktous

Thanks for your reply. I've been reading the post in the Schiit thread that introduces the Magni 3+ and Heresy, the dedicated Magni3+ and Heresy thread, as well as some linked pages, and starting to feel like I'm getting a bit of a grasp of the matter...- eriktous

Schiit Magni+ and Magni Heretic :: Impressions Thread
Could someone point me to an explanation or discussion somewhere of the differences between the two topologies, discrete vs. opamp, pros and cons of each, and why I would choose one or the other?- eriktous

Introducing the HIFIMAN HE-R9!
Not as I see it. The S on a TRS has the same length as the RS on a TRRS. The left socket is TRRS, so when a TRS is plugged into it, L- and R- will be connected inside the headphone. When a TRS is then plugged into the right socket, L- and R- on the 4.4 mm end will end up connected.- eriktous

Introducing the HIFIMAN HE-R9!
I wouldn't try this. If you look at the diagram Leonarfd posted, the sleeve of a TRS will short the L- and R-. It won't damage the headphones, but might damage the balanced source.- eriktous

No. I'm not sure if you meant something else than you wrote, but Apple Lossless is both lossless and compressed (just like many other lossless compression schemes).- eriktous

Introducing the HIFIMAN HE-R9!
I ordered the R9 for $369 a couple of days ago (still in transit). Would also like to have the Bluemini, but didn't want to pay $380 extra just for that option, so instead I ordered (and already received) an open box Deva Pro wireless for €299, basically just to get the bluetooth module. I've...- eriktous

AP80 - Hidizs next portable Hi-Res music player
I'm looking for a replacement for my Shanling M0, which has a faulty battery, and just came across the AP80 Pro X. I'm liking what I read about it (except for the bluetooth version). One thing that's critical for me is that I rip my CDs to single flac files with accompanying cue file. Does the...- eriktous

The Post and Math Rock appreciation thread.
Gallops. Welsh experimental, electronic math rock. Saw them last Monday in Amsterdam, opening for And So I Watch You From Afar. I had never heard their music before, but was impressed by their performance. Bought their album and am enjoying it thoroughly. Check out their album Yours... -
