Ready and rearing to go!

 

[SchwarzeWolke]

Thanks also for this opportunity! I‘m really looking forward and I‘m actually searching for a new DAP. Might be that my Sony has a bad capacitor or so. Starting to clip/distort quite bad.

I hope everybody has tons of fun in there!!

Actually, I believe that more than standard reviews (there have been plenty of those so far, many by very experienced reviewers) it would be useful to share everyday user experiences on the main Cayin N5ii thread, different users with different preferences, requirements, gear etc.

At some point soon, I should have the Cayin N3, N5 (1st Gen), Cowon Plenue D, this review sample, the Shanling Review Samples (m2, m2s, m3), and the Opus #1s all in hand within a few weeks of each other. I may try to do a more serious compare and contrast while I have them all in the same room if they overlap.

Awesome! Can't wait to read the outcome of this shootout.
