Cayin N7: A Voyager of Unexplored Frontier

[Mr.HiAudio]

So had to reinstall all apps etc

Maybe your application was updated before shutting down and the system was unable to boot after it? What applications did you have installed?

Not many app installed; Hiby Music, Qobuz, GAIA - for Go Pods. That’s all.

My issues are not related to any 3rd party apps As I have it in factory set apps no extras as I don't stream but I am thinking of loading usb audio pro to see if it's a hiby player issues.

It seems that The N7 music app is broken keeps crashing when playing playlists so I exported the playlist fired up the hiby app updated it and imported it, playback is perfect. Please fix the Cayin music app seems ridiculous that if you base the native music app on hiby app that it doesn't keep up with the obviously more stable versions.
I really love the N7 when it's stable the sound signature is sublime but it's fragility in the most basic function of music playback using the branded music app is disappointing

 

[Mr.HiAudio]

Why does N7 have a problem with the USB-C connector? Why do third-party cables not keep the connection (I tried 3) and interrupt the connection and charging. The first time I thought that this was a problem specifically with my copy, but no, the same situation is with the Hiby R6 Pro-ii player.
It’s just that these two devices have the same complete cable and are made at the same factory...
The supplied cable works perfectly, but it is very rough and rigid. I also note that the data transfer speed is veeeeeeeeeeeeery slooooooooooooooooooooooow

Very strange

Seems to be mostly issues in the comments these days but I am very excited to be getting my hands on an N7 early this week.
I sold my last one in the fall and got the RU7 hoping to downgrade gracefully but the N7 sound and magic just kept haunting me so I broke down and bought one from a fellow Headfi'er.
I'm pretty excited to hear this with my new CA Bonneville and to revisit the magical pairing with the TGXEar Desolation Sound.

I've really been enjoying my N7 with various iems since getting it! I did have one question if anyone can support - is there a go to radio app that functions well on the N7 operating system via the app store? I just want to casually listen to my local radio station at times and would prefer to not have to switch devices to say a PC etc.

hello, are there those who compared lotoo paw gold and N7? I want to understand what is the difference between them in terms of sound pitch?

 

[PeacockObscura]

@Andykong are we going to be receiving any fixes to the Issues with the N7 or is it now abandon in favour of newer products.

After LPG, you will definitely miss the high ones in N7. If you take the stage, then the N7 has more volume and wider

 

[vadinoy]

that is, I will lose it as a high frequency ?

 

[SBranson]

Is there an aftermarket charging/transfer cable people could recommend? The seller forgot the cable and I only have a couple apple cables. I’ve had trouble with non-stock cables in the past and wondered if that’s the case here or are people using any old cable for data transfer/charging.

 

[SBranson]

Oh my…. I’m finally getting a listen and it’s better than I remember…
What an amazing dap

 

[Mr.HiAudio]

charging/transfer cable people could recommend?

I wrote above that I had problems with different cables that did not provide a reliable connection, so I found a cable that does not lose connection, here:

[Mr.HiAudio]

Yes, very impressed DAP, but needed a burn-in OOTB.
