Greetings, a small surprise as this is probably my first exchanges with HeadFier from Cape Town.
I have discussed with John earlier this morning and he showed me your message, so John's reply will definitely in line with my statements here as we work closely as partners and make sure we are on the same page when we response to our customers.
Although this is our exchanges on Cayin products, I notice you are a fair and open-minded person, so I can try to be frank with you as well. The tone of the forum is fairly tense at the moment and my casual response might be cross-examined under 10x magnifying glass by users with very different experience and agenda, I have to play conservative in view of that, this is not ideal and far from my original intention, but I don't have a choice so please pardon if I slow down suddenly when responding to to quotes and questions.
I have missed quite a number of internal meetings because of frequent travelings in past few months, so its not a surprised that if I have missed some of the details of our products. We are examining the feasibility of dual apt-X in since early May (while I was traveling at Taiwan), we do not have a definite answer to the issue right now, and even when it is technically feasible, we still need to evaluate the cost of development, priority and scheduling before we have a green light. We'll come back with definitely answers, but it a green light or a red light, but this will take some time.
I am looking forwards to your review on N3, especially actual audition impression of the scenario you have mentioned: using the N3 as a portable transport for getting Tidal or Spotify high-res from a mobile phone to N3. I assume you'll compare the Tidal or spotify playback from mobile phone against the wireless connection to N3 from the same mobile phone. I can conduct similar test in our factory but customers can't take our words as-is for obvious reason. Feedback from an impartial third party will be more appropriate IMHO.
So please come back and share your findings and audition experience with us, I am sure I am not the only one waiting for that.
