Loved my n6. There was something about the sound that just captivated me (combined with tralucent ref1s).

I have kind of been longing for a sound like that since but with modern capability and well these days I am lazy and stream tidal mostly.

Was always curious to try the N6, but the design looked a bit ungainly. Would be interesting if this new one still used a Burr Brown DAC, though probably unlikely since they seem out of fashion- Cowon were the last big DAP company that had any PCM based models from what I can remember (then again they put out a new model every month so maybe they're not done yet :no_mouth:)

The Acoustic Research AR-M20 has a Burr-Brown PCM5242.

More photo on N6ii. There will be another round of update early next week, we are still working on the video clip right now, I have seen the first draft and it is very interesting.

I'm curious if it has amp modules.

Any idea on price? Wonder how it rates in bang for buck against the Fiio M11. The N6ii sure has my attention more than the M11.

Pretty sure it will be pricier than M11.

Yeah, I'm guessing 600 to 650 for the N6ii and the M11 is 450. I'm really wondering the performance differences, like Dual SD card slots, RAM, processor and DAC AMP implementation.

650 would be amazing but I'm expecting a bit higher.

lower than dx220 is impossible
