Give Yaxi StPad2 earpads a try... it might help tame down it down.

I enjoyed E01 too and makes me wonder if R01 (a breakthrough product) would be something I would enjoy. Oh well, time will tell.

Congratulations! How's the fit? Been rocking mine for a while now and loving it!

Yeah, as with all portable electronics, ability to find the right / fitting replacement battery cell is crucial. I recall, prior to owning Cayin N6ii, I had to replace one of my portable DAP's battery All it took was an email and the DAP manufacturer manage to hook me up with a replacement...

Been enjoying my N6ii with E01 + FiR Audio M5 and on a hiatus from Head-Fi for a while... then R01 pique my interest to jump back in. As this is the "final" motherboard for N6ii and Cayin has been putting in considerable effort into making it a success, I hope to listen to it soon and hopefully...

If driver count is anything to go by, competition will be stiff and it'll be interesting to see how the new SE flagship will have an "EDGE" over hybrid / tri-brid offerings available in the market today.

Stumble upon this today... Spiral Ear SE6 EDGE. (https://spiralear.com/se6-edge-custom-iems/) New Spiral Ear flagship. Product description is itself quite enticing. "SE6 EDGE are the most powerful, the most addictive and by the same time the most balanced monitors we have ever created, with...

About time! :beerchug: Let me grab a cup of tea and my reading glasses...

:beerchug: Thanks for sharing. Impresssion, however presented is always a good data point as reference. I'm curious as to what choice of drink you're holding while listening to the Cu and what other drink would that be if you're listening to Ti. :ksc75smile:

Same here. I did a "refresh" and realize I needed to "catch up" on the other updates too. Often, for any software update, I would just run another "update" just to ensure I'm at the latest where I want to be.

Thanks Andy for the update! Will give it a try when it is available.

NOOOOooooooo... you mean there's no "end-game"? There's no ultimate IEM that rule them all? NOOOOOooooooo!!! :stuck_out_tongue_winking_eye:

https://www.letsgoaudio.com/products/acoustune-st1000-in-ear-headphones-custom-made Well... if this ST1000 is gonna be widely available, it could add a few notch in the comfort department that's for sure!

Bold and decisive move! I love a dynamic driver setup too. Had a 1650cu which I quite enjoy when I had it. Sold it and recently got curious again with what Acoustune has to offer. Decided to pick up a 1697ti. Once again, for me the immediate wow factor is "How is this a single dynamic...

Sound like you need someone near you looking to either trade A01 with E02 and are okay to loan you his or her N6ii for a side-by-side comparison?

I hear ya. Audio gears can be a very subjective affair. I find it difficult to assess IEM based on short audition. Too many variables involved! To me, audio is mainly a self-discovery journey - trying to see where my taste or preferred signature is. Even this can be a challenging task as it...

I felt it! I felt it! Oh my wallet, it felt lighter... but at least my heart is full

N6ii + A01 Line-Out are pretty impressive performer too!

Off the cuff impression:- Settings:- E01 | AB mode | Mid gain | Brickwall filter | OFF for WiFi and Bluetooth With VE8 - perceptible noise can be heard with normal use, volume pot at around 35 to 42. Switching to A mode, it's all quiet. With FiR M5 - no perceptible noise in either AB / A...

I can't help myself... but yeah... it is spare screws.

And... E01 in da hous!!! Got me curious enough to pick one up at retail price (vs resale) to try. Can't fault Cayin on packaging here. It is nicely done! And including that screw driver is a smart and thoughtful move - with it, owners can dive right in to enjoy the purchase rather than...

Love that design! Had myself the same too (photos here). Glad that things are picking up for FiR Audio. My M5 has been getting plenty of ear-time too. I'll reach for it naturally without thinking much.

Tempted by the E01. May I fish for more impression of E01 from owners after some use? Decent overall battery run fun time?

I do have a qdc cable (with 4.4mm) to let go if your'e interested (see signature for listing link). Have also dropped you a PM.

FiR Audio's stock cables are solid to begin with. One of the few stock cables that I don't have an urge to swap / tweak (cosmetic or otherwise). If you have a bunch of 2-Pins cables to play with, FiR Audio has RCX-2Pin adaptor (https://www.firaudio.com/store/rcx-2-pin-adaptor) albeit a bit...
