The Audiophile's Hook
The Cayin N8ii is a true reference-grade DAP built for listeners who want choice, not compromise: flagship ROHM DACs, a real Nutube timbre stage, and switchable amplifier voicing that can reshape your entire chain. This unit is Excellent (98% new) and comes as a full set—flagship performance for less than new pricing, verified by HiFiLoop.
Condition Report (The Truth)
Excellent / Well-Cared For: Very clean overall, lightly used, and handled with care.
- No obvious cosmetic defects observed.
- Full retail set included (box and accessories as shown in listing photos).
Mandatory: The device has passed all functional tests.
Sonic Signature & Pairing
N8ii is built for tonal flexibility: switch between Tube and Solid-State timbre, then refine further with Class A / Class AB and power modes to match your IEMs and library. It rewards resolving transducers with cleaner layering, stronger dynamics, and a more holographic sense of space when paired correctly.
To unleash the full potential of this device, we recommend pairing it with gear from our In-Ear Monitors Collection.
