And who has 2 N6ii daps to do a proper side-by-side?
I'm going to try to borrow a second, but no guarantees.And who has 2 N6ii daps to do a proper side-by-side?
I have a unique problem/option. It seems I'm going to have two E02 motherboards but no A01. So I thought to see if I could find a used N6ii/A01 for the amp and then sell it with the E02 board, after some side by side comparisons and burn in of course. However, not finding any used ones on these boards. I dunno, I may just buy an open box unit.

My mistake, from Europe.I saw that, from UK. But that doesn't solve my other dilemma.
I'm really hoping for an objective comparison between the E01 or E02...early reports I've read suggest that the E02 is essentially a side grade from the E01, which would make sense given that it's a very similar DAC chip with a balanced connection. I'm quite in love with the E01 and honestly I'm enjoying the convenience of running everything through 3.5 cables, so unless the E02 is a night and day step up I'll probably be happy to remain with the E01.
Do what I do... don't worry about it. My use (as I am pretty sure its yours too) is almost entirely IEMs, so no need for the extra power the E02 brings. Given that E02 is class AB only and has a lesser dac (though honestly Im sure differences are extremely minimal), it seems to me from what I have read that the only real reasons to spring for the E02 would be that you need more power than the E01 can deliver (which for IEMs doesnt seem likely) or that you have a need for balanced.I'm really hoping for an objective comparison between the E01 or E02...early reports I've read suggest that the E02 is essentially a side grade from the E01, which would make sense given that it's a very similar DAC chip with a balanced connection.

Question for you guys, i add before one of the first batch of the Cayin N6ii and recently bough a new unit, and i tough my first unit didn't have any delay searching songs and scrolling. Also, this new unit the volume wheel click on every volume step. My first one didn't click and the wheel feel, was more sturdy.
Secondly, why the E01 module have satin black finish and not the others is it normal ?
by the way the E02 is on it way !
Totally agree. I was initially put off by the 3.5mm output of the E01, but after hearing it I have no complaints. Plus, most of my stuff is 2.5mm, so I have to use an adapter anyway with the 4.4mm output of the A01. 3.5mm to 2.5mm cables is an easy one. Still curious about E02 though
Actually only "complaint" I guess is the hiss I get with Solaris, but pretty much every DAP does that!
-Collin-
I can't say that I notice any hiss at all with Solaris SE...the n6ii on the whole is one of the more "hiss free" DAPs I've encountered.
This is as close as I have got to a mini n8.
