Yes, I bought the BB version

Nice, still want to try an N8

 

[immortalsoul]

Wow congrats!

Will be curious to see your impressions. What iems or headphones are you going to pair it with?

Yes, of course. I am really hopping that I will not be disappointed, because I was a bit disappointed with the Cayin N6II. I will pair it with Jh audio Roxanne performance series, Jh audio Layla 2 and headphones Kennerton Vali

Let's hope the sound is not going to be better when the dap is heavier, because I don't like the idea of buying the Ibasso, I tried to like their house sound but I realized it's not for me, plus you need two cables to charge that monster

Wish to hear the N8, though I would never buy it because of the design which I happen to not like

I guess that I forgot to add that is very important for you guys to mention what type of music you listen and want type of sound signature you enjoy

I started adding a few words about each dap on my list. I will continue to update my list from time to time with more information. Unfortunately I don't always have the time, only when I spare a few minutes here and there

Time is the ultimate luxus. Don't spoil it.
