Cayin RU6 USB DAC Headphone Amplifier 193.98 GBP Discrete 24-Bit R-2R Ladder Resistor Network Explained The basic idea of R-2R ladder is a matched pair of two resistors, the first is "R" and the other is "2R" which has twice the value of R. To achieve 24bit R-2R decoding, Cayin need 48 pieces of resistors (23xR and 25x2R) for one channel, or 96 pieces of high precision resistors for stereo. R-2R is famous for its natural and realistic sound signature, it'll offer a very different experience to music lovers. NOS or OS Dual DA Mode Non-Oversampling: Maintain the original sampling rate of the source bitstream. Digital filter-less, no post-processing, optimised in time domain, low phase distortion and jitter, no ringing artefact. Musical with vivid emotions, sounds natural, organic and coherent. Oversampling: Increases sampling rate (upsampling) through interpolation before DA. Enhances resolution, reduces noise and improves anti-aliasing, optimised in frequency domain. Impressive details and frequency extension, clean and sharp presentation with darker background. Discrete Volume Control R-2R DAC circuit is very demanding on incoming data integrity, the digital volume of mobile phones will damage sound quality badly. When off-the-shelf volume options cannot meet the high precision, low noise, low power consumption requirements of RU6, Cayin developed their own discrete resistor array volume control. 0-99 steps volume control through 9 segments of resistors and switching relays, meet all the RU6 requirements and transparent to maintain the natural sound signature of R-2R DAC. Intuitive and Versatile Hardware volume buttons for convenient control, doubled as menu selection when entering Mode settings. 1" OLED screen displays playback information with good visibility. 3.5mm and 4.4mm phono out to fit your earphone collection.

FiiO BTR15 Bluetooth Headphone Amplifier - BLACK (Box opened) 93.98 GBP Change modes with just one button Due to the BTR15’s ability to work as a Bluetooth receiver and as a USB DAC, we have implemented a PC/BT/PHONE mode button on it. With just a click of a button, you can quickly switch between the three different modes to match your current scenario for listening to high-quality music. Global parametric EQ, be the master of your music The BTR15 features a global parametric equalizer (PEQ). Through FIIO’s self-developed PEQ algorithm and user interface, in any mode* you can choose the exact frequencies to be adjusted along with their gain levels and bandwidth – allowing you to fine-tune the sound to exactly the way you want it. Dual-core upgrade, two modes of high-res audio The upgrades start from the heart of the BTR15, specifically the cores that power it. The BTR15 employs the high-performance combination of the Qualcomm QCC5125 Bluetooth chip = XMOS 16-core XU316 that supports stable high-res audio playback in any mode*, allowing you more ways to immerse yourself in the world of high-quality hi-res music. * MQA Full Decoder for master-quality sound The BTR15 supports MQA Full Decoder, which means the MQA decoding can be achieved in any music app. This allows for high-resolution, master-level sound quality in reasonably sized files well-suited for your mobile device. Double-sided curved glass design With the BTR15, FIIO uses hot-bent curved glass for the first time – embedding it on both the front and the rear of the device. Not only does this make the device easier to hold, but it also gives the BTR15 a more attractive and 3D appearance. Together with the aluminium alloy middle frame, they make the BTR15 a comfortable device to handle – you won’t be able to put it down once you pick it up. Dual outputs gives you flexibility In addition to the standard 3.5mm single-ended headphone output, the BTR15 also comes with the widely-used 4.4mm balanced headphone output – featuring greater contact reliability and durability compared to the 2.5mm balanced out. The dual outputs ensure you can use the BTR15 with more headphones, for more remarkable listening experiences. Independent power supply for the amp, for more explosive power Electricity is the mother of sound. Feiao engineers have carefully designed an independent power supply system for DAC ES9219MQ built-in earmuffs, so that earmuffs no longer share the power supply with DAC and the power supply is purer. In addition, the uniquely designed external power supply has the characteristics of low noise and high current, which increases the balanced output power of BTR15 by 40% to 340mW, and can easily meet the needs of portable use. Parallel output, more power You don’t have to use the 4.4mm balanced output to enjoy the benefits of increased output power. In order to improve the performance of the BTR15 in every aspect, FIIO connected the headphone outputs in parallel to also greatly increase the output power of the 3.5mm...

When off-the-shelf analogue volume options could not meet the high-precision, low noise, low power consumption requirement of RU7, Cayin developed their own discrete resistor network volume control 100 steps volume control through 3 segments of resistors and switching relays, offer precise control over a wide volume range, satisfy even the need of most sensitive IEM users Outstanding Digital Audio Capability with User Selectable All-to-DSD RU7 supports PCM up to 384kHz and native DSD from DSD64 to DSD256 Its Audio Bridge will receive different audio formats and go through high-precision signal enhancement All digital audio signals will convert to the designated DSD format (DSD64/DSD128/DSD256) before feeding to the discrete 1-BIT DAC circuit. Dual PCB to Minimise Interference To minimize interference, RU7 circuitry is split into TWO 6-layerrs PCB, with digital and analogue circuit installed in separate boards. Safeguard signal integrity makes sure the noise from the reference clock and DSP will not bleed into the amplification circuit. Low Power Consumption, Compatible with Common Platforms The discrete resistor network is a low-power DAC circuit when compared to other highly integrated DAC chipsets, with minimised power drain from a mobile source. Redesigned amplification circuit increase output power dramatically while maintaining the overall power drain at 100-110 mA Low power consumption allows RU7...
