    Cayin N3Pro DAP: Dual AK4493 and MQA with Vacuum Tube

    thank you for your reply, i completely understand that Cayin or any company for that matter will reject any warranty claims if their product has been tampered with by the user, what i meant was repairs made 'outside' of the warranty period.. something like 4+ years after. my current DAP is 5...

    Cayin N3Pro DAP: Dual AK4493 and MQA with Vacuum Tube

    I'm one to use gear from the start until the end of its life (i.e beyond repair), and I'm curious about the Cayin N3pro's reparability. If and when eventually the batteries give up the ghost, or a tube fails, how easy would it be to get it replaced outside of warranty? There are plenty of...

    Shanling M1: An iPod Nano Competitor / DAP || USB DAC || USB Transport || Bluetooth 4.0 + aptX || DSD

    i updated my M1 some months ago to the latest available firmware and i noticed that the auto-standby does not work anymore, did anyone experience the same thing? setting auto-standby to any setting from 1min to 10min does not change anything and the player stays on until it runs out of battery...

    Chord Mojo issue solutions thread.

    Huge thanks to Mr. John Franks who helped me get my Mojo USB repaired for no cost even though it was out of warranty! Really appreciate the kind gesture from Chord! I guessed as much that they would not re-solder the microUSB port and they replaced the entire PCB.. my previous board had the...

    Chord Mojo issue solutions thread.

    I will say it is definitely due to a large force.. I usually use my Mojo with a Shanling M1 and a USB-C to MicroUSB (short) adapter and I put both devices in my bag during my commute.. I have been using it this way for some time and I guess I have been putting stress on this USB port without...

    Chord Mojo issue solutions thread.

    the entire USB connector just fell off its socket.. the legs of the USB connector are all still intact so they didn't shear off.. maybe there wasn't enough solder to hold it from stress over time.. or maybe my connector took a hard knock recently at just the right angle.. anyway the connector...

    Chord Mojo issue solutions thread.

    thanks, I contacted the local distributor in my country and they told me to bring it down to get a quote.. I'm afraid they might indeed tell me that the entire board has to be replaced.. in that case I would rather risk it and try to do a fix myself.. this is disappointing.. i thought the Mojo...

    Chord Mojo issue solutions thread.

    well.. just had a big issue with my Mojo.. i left the micro->usb c cable plugged in and put it into my bag.. I think it might have been pressed on over the course of my day and the usb jack INSIDE the Mojo has become loose and won't detect any inputs anymore.. what are my options here? I have...

    Shanling M1: An iPod Nano Competitor / DAP || USB DAC || USB Transport || Bluetooth 4.0 + aptX || DSD

    Quote: I did bring this issue up a few pages back when I just got my M1 and I agree.. it makes no sense to not use the metadata for the song title and display the filename of the song.   Some guys suggested I rename all my songs with the standard format Artist-Album-Track#-Title.wav but...

    Shanling M1: An iPod Nano Competitor / DAP || USB DAC || USB Transport || Bluetooth 4.0 + aptX || DSD

    the stock cable is only for charging and data transfer, you need to use an OTG cable to get the M1 to recognize the Mojo as a DAC. The automatic booting up bug when leaving the DAC connected to the M1 when off still occurs.. so we still have to keep the USB cable disconnected when not using...

    Shanling M1: An iPod Nano Competitor / DAP || USB DAC || USB Transport || Bluetooth 4.0 + aptX || DSD

    just got this OTG cable from the link Mimouille shared some pages back.. have to say that I really appreciate the size of the M1 (coming from a DX50).. I used a small piece of 3M Velcro to secure the M1 to the Mojo and it is light enough for me not to be concerned of it flying off by accident. I...

    Shanling M1: An iPod Nano Competitor / DAP || USB DAC || USB Transport || Bluetooth 4.0 + aptX || DSD

      Got the beta firmware and it works fine with the Mojo although I do get the same bug that Mimouille and headwhacker are reporting: "when you turn the M1 off when it is plugged as a source via USB, it turns back on. Very annoying. Then when you turn it back on, it cannot detect any tracks."...

    Shanling M1: An iPod Nano Competitor / DAP || USB DAC || USB Transport || Bluetooth 4.0 + aptX || DSD

    I had another crack at this, and this still doesn't make a lot of sense to me..   Assuming I renamed all my audio files with the format "Artist_Album_Track_Title.mp3/wav/flac" then if I select "Open All" in "My Music" then I would see all the files in alphabetical order but with the Artist...

    Shanling M1: An iPod Nano Competitor / DAP || USB DAC || USB Transport || Bluetooth 4.0 + aptX || DSD

      I just took another look and it just says 'Open All' under the menu 'My Music' and then it shows file names only, but under Artist and Albums it does show just the Artist name and Album name which shows that the OS is actually extracting the Album and Artist name from the metadata, just that...

    Shanling M1: An iPod Nano Competitor / DAP || USB DAC || USB Transport || Bluetooth 4.0 + aptX || DSD

      I have changed the output capacitors in my DX50 to ones of my own preference so it my DX50 would not sound the same. I can't give a comparison from memory now because I have not used the headphone-out jack on my DX50 in nearly a year since I got my Mojo, but initial listening to the M1 from...

    Shanling M1: An iPod Nano Competitor / DAP || USB DAC || USB Transport || Bluetooth 4.0 + aptX || DSD

    That may be true, but ultimately I usually listen to all my songs in my library on shuffle, but if I want to select a song that has the artist name or album or title that is on the back end of the alphabetical order then I would have to rotate the selector 1000 clicks to get to the 1000th song...

    Shanling M1: An iPod Nano Competitor / DAP || USB DAC || USB Transport || Bluetooth 4.0 + aptX || DSD

    had a little more time to handle the player yesterday and discovered a few more issues so here's my bug/improvement report Shanling: 1. It seems that tagging isn't fully working; the album and artist names come out ok, but the titles are not shown with their tagged titles, instead the full file...

    got my M1 yesterday with a case.. didn't have much time to use it but I did test out the basic functionalities and I was pretty impressed!         the packaging and presentation was top notch, and holding the player in my hands it felt solid and made of good quality materials.. the...

    Shanling M1: An iPod Nano Competitor / DAP || USB DAC || USB Transport || Bluetooth 4.0 + aptX || DSD

    I've never used a USB OTG cable before.. so pardon my lack of knowledge.. I see that in this picture a USB-OTG with a micro USB is used with a USB->USB-C adapter.. does it matter which device the USB OTG cable is plugged into for this setup to work?   I found some USB-C OTG cables, so could I...

    does the provided usb-C to micro usb really not work (i.e can't fit into) with the Mojo as well? do we need to buy an additional adapter to fit them together?

    I'm just another person looking forward to using this with the Mojo until I saw the reports here that it might not work with the Mojo and I was very disappointed especially since I just preordered this player a few days ago.. I immediately dropped the Shanling user here a pm and this was his...

      i wanted to post this exact same thing as i'm interested to use this with my Mojo and i did a quick search for a short usb-c to micro usb which turned up with no results.. just really long ones or short ones but not with a micro-usb.. i think many people are looking to pair this with a Mojo...

    Pictures of Your Portable Rig (part XVI)

      bought a pair of VE Monks from Massdrop to pair with two 'portable' rigs, a Marantz PMD-420 cassette player and an Audio Technica AT-770 Mister Disc portable turntable.. I say 'portable' but I have never brought either of these out of my home before (especially with no anti-skip with a vinyl...
