Final Audio D8000 Planar Magnetic Headphone
After some time of ownership, the D8000 grown on me a lot. I never used it with EQ, just because I find it has the charateristics I look for when I look for a planar headphone: speed, rumble, phyisicality, all with no penalty to the details and the overall presentation. Currently, my home setup...- augustr

Great to see Sony updating their flagship portable players, seems like they've kept what works and breathed new life to the whole system overall. I'm eager to listen to one when I can.- augustr

The Continuation Of The Sony Walkman 1Z/1A Thread!
My older dap ended up dying (screen dead out of nowhere). Android DAPs are nice but I want something that'll last longer. So, guess this is my last impulse purchase this year. Installed latest mod FW with the bright external tuning, and so far, it does suit my needs really well. Might look into...- augustr

Cayin N6ii, Unlimited Possibilities: a fully modularized smart DAP
Thanks a lot for such a fast response, Andy! In regards to your questions: I turned it off, yes. Since I was going out, I turned it off and left it with about 40% battery when I did so. I used it just the day before the trip (the 19th). Yes, pressing both power + previous song does turn...- augustr

Cayin N6ii, Unlimited Possibilities: a fully modularized smart DAP
Hello everybody! After a week long trip, I came back home, only to find my N6ii screen's died, while i left it inside it's case, inside a drawer. Doing the reset procedure, the screen turns on, but doesn't show anything. The charging ring works, but now, I'm not sure what to make of it. Is...- augustr

Cayin N6ii, Unlimited Possibilities: a fully modularized smart DAP
I've been using it mainly in 2.4GHz, the issue is, after some minutes, the connection seems to be dropped, I then change to the other frequency (if I'm in 2.4GHz, I change to 5GHz, vice versa), and it'll work for another 30 minutes or so. I do live in a crowded area, but my other devices have no...- augustr

Final Audio D8000 Planar Magnetic Headphone
So, just wanted to drop by a pic and say I'm happy to have the D8000 joining the family :) So far, loving it. Has the right amount of detail, while never leaving me exhausted. Bass is amazing, has great levels of texture and punch, definetely the stand out feature of this pair so far. Confort...- augustr

Cayin N6ii, Unlimited Possibilities: a fully modularized smart DAP
A quick question: anyone else has trouble where the DAP just loses connection to the wifi router after some time playing? Happens with any of the streaming apps I have (TIdal, Qobuz, UAPP, Roon), I've tried disabling battery optimization on these apps, with no success. Any tips on solving this...- augustr

Cayin N6ii, Unlimited Possibilities: a fully modularized smart DAP
So, my N6ii finally arrived, and I can safely say I'm very pleased with the sound quality and the OS overall. My only issue (and is one I wasn't able to find many comments in this thread) is in regards to the Wi-Fi connection, seems like it's pretty weak when compared to my G7, a pretty old...- augustr

Cayin N6ii, Unlimited Possibilities: a fully modularized smart DAP
My question comes due to the pinout @Andykong shared some time ago. It seems to me the L+ and L- pin are shifted around when compared to the sony pinout: So i wanted to make sure this is OK.- augustr

Cayin N6ii, Unlimited Possibilities: a fully modularized smart DAP
I'll be purchasing a N6ii in the following days, so I wanted to confirm, is the pinout for the 4.4 connector the same as sony's? Is it ok to use with a standard 4.4 cable, or should I be looking for any specific one? Thanks in advance!- augustr
