SDXC card ?i've got a 1TB in mine.
How do you like the RS8 compared to N8ii?
SDXC card ?i've got a 1TB in mine.
My German manual states:
Der TF-Kartensteckplatz unterstützt TF-Karten des Typs SDHC und SHXC und wurde
auf Kompatibilität mit 512GB TF-Karten getestet
Google translates to
"The TF card slot supports SDHC and SHXC type TF cards and has been
Tested for compatibility with 512GB TF cards"
? Follow-up Question:
Does quality / speed of such cards have an impact on the performance ?

PS: Just noticed that the (older !) N7 was tested with 1 TB cards ?

I am using 1tb microSDDoes anyone know what the max size Micro SD card the N8ii can read up to? Also someone mentioned using a SDXC card with their N8ii, I thought these were micro SD only, it can read SDXC cards?
I tried Sandisk Extreme Pro with 200mb/s and Sandisk Ultra with 150mb/s but couldn’t hear the difference, that was tested on dsd and flac files but YMMV.? Follow-up Question:

They are different beasts. Rs8 is more relaxed and has even more tweaking abilities. A more tame treble. N8ii has faster transient control like other chip based dacs but better realism with note decay than akm and ess (generally) I like rs8’s class a implementation better and use it more.SDXC card ?

The sdCard with higher read speeds tend to improve resolution and extension in the extremes noticeably in my systemI am using 1tb microSD

Absolutely, my N8 was great with my now both drivers broken Utopias. I bought the Hifiman R10P's as replacements & my new N8ii being brighter than the N8 suits the R10p's perfectly. They need that extra brightness.But it’s all about synergy for me. N8ii works with my darker iems and rs8 with more neutral and brighter ones.

@Andykong i think you’ve achieved this, but I have a question: if the sound is amazing, but the player isn’t transitioning smoothly from one track to another, does the wonderful sound matter anymore? I’m using the HiBy player and it isn’t going from one track to the next without cutting off a few seconds of the next track. In albums where the music is continuous from one track to the next, this ruins the experience intended by the artist. I have it set to gapless, and most of my music is in ALAC or FLAC format (24 bit, 192 kHz). I’m using a 1 TB Sandisk Extreme MicroSDXC v30 1 U3 A2. Nothing else is running on the DAP. What could be the problem?We have adjusted the feedback loop carefully to enhance the transparent, transient and extension that can rival the best solid state circuit but yet remain warm and mellow.

I don't have any issue playing music with gap, they all play smoothly, I use SanDisk Extreme MicroSD, I used to have Samsung but it's read speed is a bit lower and it is perceptible in the quality of the playback But no effect on gapless playback, unless if the card has a problemSanDisk (even if they have a very high data transfer rate) is not the best option for using them in portable players. I would recommend Samsung memory cards. It was with this replacement that I solved a problem similar to yours.
Before use, the memory card must be formatted via a portable player, i.e. Android system.
I am not sure if I understand your problem correctly. Are you having a problem with the gapless function? This is most likely related to the playback app, not the player.

I'm using the primary app that comes with the player and shows the Cayin brand. I would think the app that comes with the player should work best with the player? Yes, I'm playing tracks that flow one into the other, but the following track isn't seamlessly transitioned into. There is a gap in the music and a second is cut off the beginning of the second song.
Interesting. I will try formatting the SanDisk using the player before springing money for a new card. Is there a 1TB Samsung? Not seeing one on amazon...
