New Head-Fier
Just got mine today. Connected a USB to my PC and I don't have the option to transfer music. What am I doing wrong?
It works great for mobile use, it’s incredibly light for a DAP and you won’t hear the tubes unless you properly knock on the DAP - no noise from walking around, some people in the thread even use it at the gym.Just bought an open box N3 Pro from Audio46 that is arriving tomorrow. Jumping on the bandwagon a bit late but I've been eyeing this DAP since it was released. Any tips would be helpful. I've got a 1 TB card filled to the brim with high res and CD quality FLAC (14,000 and change songs). Mostly classic, alternative and progressive rock. Always preferred music from downloads and files uploaded from my own CD collection versus streaming anyway.
I know the weight is 195g. How is it for mobile use? Light enought to carry in a pants or jacket pocket? Any microphonics?
From what I've read there's a 20,000 song limit. Great news about the low microphonics and the mobility. I recall reading the tubes are suspended in some kind of fluid, but I wasn't sure about the overall consensus on ringing. Tomorrow can't come fast enough. I've got some nice IEMs that could use just a bit of the edge off with a little tubiness.Thanks.It works great for mobile use, it’s incredibly light for a DAP and you won’t hear the tubes unless you properly knock on the DAP - no noise from walking around, some people in the thread even use it at the gym.
Check the file limit, I don’t remember if it can index properly that many songs.

rather weirdly ..my N3Pro has also recently decided to not enter OTG mode when i connect to laptop ..or my cellphone.Just got mine today. Connected a USB to my PC and I don't have the option to transfer music. What am I doing wrong?
I don't think you will be disappointed. This DAP has a very inviting sound signature through the tubes. Tubes are stable. Besides warm up delay before playback and slight ringing when placed down on hard surface, there are no concerns with tubes. I prefer streaming and use N3Pro exclusively as BT LDAC receiver. Unless playing DSD files, I hear very little difference vs listening to microSD card.Just bought an open box N3 Pro from Audio46 that is arriving tomorrow.

I really like it so far. I've been using triode mode more than ultralinear. Very natural sounding without sacrificing detail. The N3 pro not only turns my IEMs into different beasts, but there's still enough juice to make my Grado PS500's shine. I have to wonder if Cayin will make another mid-fi DAP with tubes like this again.I don't think you will be disappointed. This DAP has a very inviting sound signature through the tubes.

thats what traditional tubes doMy N3 Pro makes a ringing noise in tube mode if the player is tapped. Is this normal?
Yes. Setting it down on a hard surface or knocking it against something solid will cause the tubes to ring for a bit. Generally it stays pretty quiet though.My N3 Pro makes a ringing noise in tube mode if the player is tapped. Is this normal?
I’ve used it with a Elegia and eq. For me it sounds flawless.Hi. Would you recommend this player for a Focal Stellia?
