Hi there,
is there any possibility to remote the CAYIN N5ii, like you can do it with the N3 ant the Hiby-App?
Regards,
toko

N5ii does not support HiByLink, not in near future.

HibyLink requires dual BT but N5ii only support BT transmission. N3 is benefited by having dual BT because that's the only to enable streaming service, but since you can install app on N5ii directly, we don't see the point to include BT receiving in N5ii. On the other hand, N3 use a small non-touch screen in its Man-Machine interface, with HiByLink we can enhanced the user experience by offering a touch-screen based control via your mobile phone, but since N5ii has a decent sized touch screen already, that makes HiByLink kind of redundant to certain extend.

Of course we can add dual BT into N5ii since its technically straightforward, but that will add up the cost. With the price range that we want to aim at and Cayin's priority to offer products at high price performance, I think the decision make sense.

I know that, it's written at the beginning of this post.
But the questions is: Is there any possibility to remote the N5ii?

Does anyone here have experience with sending your player to Cayin for repair, and how long it takes? I had some screen damage so I sent my player back to Andy from Musicteck sho then would send it to Cayin and was wondering if anyone had a time table.

One of the hex screws at the bottom of my N5ii is loose. Anyone know what size hex key is needed so I can fix it?

Hi Andy,

My N5iiS is now my main player on the go absolute delighted with the sound. I have a question/ request, is Cayin planning replay gain support for the next fm update? If not can you consider?

Thanks

Took a month and a half for mine from the day I shipped it to the day I received it.

Battery replacement.

In case anyone else needs to know, looks like 0.9mm (or .035") does the trick.

I plan to use my N5ii as a DAC for my Massdrop Objective 2 Headphone Amp: Desktop Edition (amp without DAC). Do I simply purchase a USB-C to 2 RCA (the amp uses 2 RCA input) and it'll work?

 

[rwelles]

AFAIK, you will need to use the headphone output. USB is a digital output, which will require a D>A conversion prior to the Objective amp.

Is anyone else having periodic issues with both cards being recognised?
I have 2 x 400gb cards loaded with 252gb free on one and 281gb free on the other.
I seem to get it working again by physically taking out and swapping slots - sometimes twice, so funnily enough the cards end upback in the original slots.
Once they are recognised again all is good until I add new files again...

Yep I had this when I just got the unit. Every time I switched off the unit and on again it would only recognize one of my two cards (256 Gb). After I switched the cards it is all good and this hasn't happened since. I have also added new songs since. I assumed this was an issue with my particular cards, but since you also have this issue I am wondering if this is FW or 'Unit' related?

Hi Andy,

Have you any idea what this could be?

Thanks,

I have a couple of questions and I apologize if this hasvalready been asked:
- does this player really do perfect gapless with the main music app? My i5 doesn't.

- is it possible to have more than one eq preset saved in the main music app?

I'm considering buying this mainly for the double microd slot, not sure between this and the Pioneer 30r

Yes gapless is excellent. And you can overwrite any of the EQ presets, not just the Custom labeled one, but I think all of them get wipes if you do a factory reset.
