103 was the first one I had which I got replaced for a rebiased one.

Hmmm so basically I have a returned unit which has been rebiased?

To me it was a new unit (priced accordingly)

Yes, that is the system. The one I just ordered at MusicTeck has the serial number 012 and it is a rebiased version.
Having said that, I don't mind as I am sure that Cayin gave them a thorough check when they came in for rebias.
After all the N30LE is their premium, showcase DAP.

Yes indeed I got the last one from Andrew. It is scheduled to arrive on the 1st of March. Can’t await it.
It really worth the waiting. With Elite it is sublime.

You could be more happy in a normal year, the 1st of March would be tomorrow 😄

I already posted this in the Watercooler Thread, however, I feel everyone here should know as well!

!!!POTENTIAL SCAMMER WARNING!!!!

Dear Watercooler Thread and all other Headfi Members,

I recently posted a WTB for a set of Oriolus Traillii JP Black and Red as I eagerly wanted them.
While I was negotiating with other established members I was contacted by a new member who offered me a pair of standard Traillii JP.

BRIAN675

https://www.head-fi.org/members/brian675.584612/

According to him he is a new user but has a flawless reputation on US Audio Mart.

We talked for a while and he made a very attractive price of USD 2500.- and sent some pics of pristine Triallii JP.
His preferred payment methods were PP F&F and wire transfer.

We talked about shipping and his offer to Japan was so expensive that I offered using a MyUS address.
Since I generally trust our members I considered paying via wire and asked for the information.

The account was in the name of a company in Oregon although he claims to live in Canton, Michigan.
This made me a bit weary so I asked for a picture of the IEMs with a paper that shows his username and the date, which he did.

We even exchanged addresses and WhatsApp and everything seemed fine.

HOWEVER, to check if there are scratches or other blemishes on the shells or cracks in the nozzles I asked him to send me closeup pictures on a light-colored background.
Besides having various backgrounds I recognized upon closer inspection that the serial numbers on the shells vary from picture to picture which is a red flag.
(Previously I had even run some of the pictures through Google reverse image search but they did not pop up anywhere else.)

From my point of view, it looks like a fraud.
(I will attach the images here so that everyone can get their impression)

Is there a next step that should be done?

Phiemon added: The pictures, which have different backgrounds, should also be noted.

Best,

Dirk

So the Cayin N30 LE has no support for Roon or is it just not "Roon Ready"? I thought it was Android, so was planning to use Roon ARC (and Spotify)... Hmm...

It's not certified, since Roon is horribly slow, but Roon ARC still works

Roon ARC works great on N30, but it can't be used as a Roon endpoint. Check out previous posts by @Andykong as to progress getting N30 to Roon Ready status.

Cayin will debut a new DAP at CanJam New York 2024. The N3Ultra is a long overdue update to the beloved N3Pro and this is the second portable product in the Cayin lineup embracing the Gen3 Vacuum Tube Audio Circuit.

Check out the MusicTack booth if you are visiting CanJam New York 2024. More details will be available by coming Thursday right before the CanJam event, so please subscribe to the N3Ultra thread and stay tuned.
