The N8 has consolidated Cayin's 25 years of extensive experience in the high-end audio industry and offers impeccable digital and analog audio capabilities. It features two AKM AK4497EQ DAC chipsets and can native decode up to DSD256 and 32 Bit/ 384kHz with stellar dynamic range and channel separation.
On top of being a brilliant standalone player, the Cayin N8 offers six input and output options so that you can easily integrate the DAP into your home audio system. The I2S Digital output (via micro HDMI) is by far the most sophisticated digital interface from N8, as it can connect to the I2S input of Cayin's CS-100DAC where the N8 becomes a high performance digital transport.
Cayin has also embedded the S/PDIF Coaxial signal into the Type-C secondary bus pins. This is their proprietary design and N8 users will be provided the necessary adapters to connect the player to portable and desktop DAC.
The N8 also supports USB Audio so it can function as USB DAC (input) or USB Transport (output) through its Type-C USB interface. Last but not least, the N8 comes with dual line out design. On top of the commonly used single-ended line out through the dedicated 3.5mm port, Cayin has added a ground connection to the "Pentaconn" connector so that N8 can facilitate full balanced line out through the shared 4.4mm TRRRS port.
