Cayin N8ii: The Incredible DAP with ROHM DAC and fully BAL Nutube

I am not putting the N8ii in my pocket. It gets too hot and that volume pot is way too sensitive. It's only a matter of time that you will blow out your ears with the N8ii in your pocket. I am sure it has a volume lock, but I wouldn't trust it.

I love it. Can you please keep a link to your DAP rankings next to your IEM rankings? Where is the N6ii Ti? Haha.

Good idea, I’ll add a DAP tab on the spreadsheet. Hasn’t the N6ii Ti arrived to you yet?!
Yes, I love how it sounds. I was able to pick up an E02 and A02. R01 sounds better than RS6. A02 + C9 sounds better than RS6 + C9. But, the ergonomics are bad. Phone out on top is a problem when pairing with C9. And, you have to unscrew the amps to swap them. This makes switching between standalone and modular problematic. RS6 has all PO and LO on the bottom. E02 sounds more like DX312.

Actually, I've owned 3 N6ii and always just left the screws out after the first swap. Same with the C9 battery tray.
The C9 battery tray is in the bottom of the case, so I leave those screws out. For me, the amp module on the top has it slipping out. How do you keep it inserted?

Definitely some battery display issues going on here, didn’t even realize but it was still showing 100% after about 5 hours of use. Reset the DAP and then it displayed 55% which is what would make more sense. :)

Was just puzzled by this as well.

I had that issue yesterday. Stayed on 100% until it died. Plugged it in and charged it back up to 92% and the battery hasn’t depleted at all 🤔
