Cayin RU7: 1-Bit Resistor Network Dongle DAC /Amp

[Polky74]

The W4... I just have to wait for it to arrive... lol

 

[Polky74]

The real flaw of the RU7 is that very often I find myself listening to music at very high volume levels that I shouldn't...

My friend bought it - he’s happy. But with a new QULOOS QLS, MUB1. It uses four CS43131 DAC chips, features four-gain setting, and combines with large-capacity battery for pure sound. I would go any day with QLS (Quloos) which is an ultra reputable in mainland China brand.

With mests I can go max to 44-45 high gain. With V14 -55-60. Also depends on cable - with Crystal I can go a little higher because it has very mellow sweet sound. Yatono is a little edgy so the volume above is for yatono on both.

There the real miracle (for me) was done on consumption... I think the W4 is the only iPhone-friendly dongle.

From phone... not from pc... I guess...

Yes and yes.
It’s a wonderful dac/amp!

Very often DAC producers have to choose between a light, ethereal and detailed sound or a dense one, with heavy notes but inevitably less detailed and focused. With the RU7 Cayin has managed to present a sound that is at the same time very thick, with well defined and heavy notes, but with incredible definition as well as benchmark focus and placement. Having succeeded in doing this, the two characteristics feed on each other ... the notes seem even heavier and the sound denser precisely because of the presence of infinite details and nuances ... just as the details are felt even more precisely for the density of the sound itself and for the consistency of each single note. Cherry on the cake? The speed with which all this happens... and which feeds the cohesion and organicity of the entire sound stage. This time Cayin has made a real masterpiece and without any dac already on the market... but with only the flour of its own sack. Compliments!

One of the most unique DAC you can buy in the market today. Different from the mass produced DS based. Definitely worth a listen and adding to your collection! I'm glad that I bought mine.

So which one goes away, m15? Ru6? Or dc04 pro?

My friend Polky doesn't sell anything!

 

[Moralezao]

my ru7 is out for delivery! Unfortunately it will arrive before my iem so I will only use them on Friday

I thought the RU6 and M15 use less power on the Iphone than the RU7

Anyone using the RU7 and Fir Xe6 IEM together?

I was talking about the W4, as regards the consumption of the RU7, to lower it just set DSD64.

I do.
It's a match from heaven.
Now, after some > 20 hours, it sounds better.

listen to Roon Arc at high gain, dsd128.
