Presenting the Cayin N3Ultra - The All-New On-The-Go Music Companion

Cayin launches a digital audio player, the all-new N3Ultra. Crafted with meticulous attention to detail, this portable music player is designed with high-performance components to deliver an exceptional on-the-go music listening experience. The Cayin N3Ultra houses vintage JAN6418 vacuum tubes, providing a warm and rich sound signature. Its dual AK4493SEQ DAC chips ensure high-resolution audio playback, supporting formats up to DSD512 and PCM 768kHz/32Bit. It also features a precision volume controller, customisable parametric EQ, and versatile headphone and line-level outputs that cater to individual preferences, offering a personalised audio journey. This portable excellence provides fast-charging capability and long battery life and is compatible with amplifiers, active speakers, and DAC setups. It is a versatile audio device and an indispensable companion for music enthusiasts seeking uncompromising audio quality and control.

Equipped With Dual AK4493sSEQ Chipsets For Exceptional Decoding Performance

Cayin has equipped the N3Ultra with exceptional DAC from AKM technologies. The AK4493SEQ chipset had earned its name in the audio-fidelity realm for its capability to deliver detailed, natural sound with clarity and fidelity. The Cayin N3Ultra supports high-resolution audio decoding formats like DSD512 and PCM 768kHz/32Bit, allowing you to listen to music in its purest form. The dual AK4493SEQ chipsets and analog circuits work independently in each channel, ensuring that your Cayin N3Ultra efficiently reduces crosstalk, enhancing audio clarity and stereo separation. The dual AK4493SEQ chipsets in the Cayin N3Ultra operate in Mono mode in fully differential output, providing precise and detailed sound reproduction. This thoughtful design contributes towards a more immersive and lifelike music listening experience with your Cayin N3Ultra.

Powerful Amplification Capabilities With Military-Grade NOS Vacuum Tubes

Cayin's expertise in tube amplifier engineering is evident in the N3Ultra, which features vintage JAN6418 vacuum tubes and Raytheon military-grade NOS tubes. The former vintage tube amps aim to provide a classic tube sound with rich overtones. And the military-grade NOS tubes from Raytheon ensure high-quality analog outputs across all channels. Unlike traditional setups, the N3Ultra equips Cayin's 3rd generation vacuum tube technology in a two-stage timbre circuit. These tubes enhance the low gain voltage amplification and driving capability. This setup allows you to choose from three distinct timbre options - Classic Tube for a warm and full-bodied sound, Modern Tube for a lively soundstage with impressive linearity and Solid-State for a balanced and clear audio experience. The Cayin N3Ultra caters to your preferences with these sound customisation characteristics, giving you an authentic music listening experience.

Customise the Sound of Your Music Along With Precise Volume Control & PEQ Adjustments

The Cayin N3Ultra digital audio player provides a unique level of customisation through its tube amps, offering three distinct sound signatures. With options like classic tube timbre for a warm and rich sound, modern tube timbre for a lively and linear soundstage and solid-state timbre for a balanced and clear audio experience. Along with this, it features precise volume control and accurate sound-delivering components, along with customisable features. It equips the JRC NJW1195A four-channel volume controller, known for its low noise and distortion, ensuring high-quality sound output. The Cayin N3Ultra also features two accusilicon AS318 femtosecond oscillators, reducing jitter and maintaining signal accuracy with ultra-low phase noise (-100dBC) for an authentic listening experience. The volume control chip minimises digital artefacts and enhances musicality during playback. Also with precise volume control, the Cayin N3Ultra provides 10-band parametric EQ customisation, allowing you to fine-tune sound according to your preferences and listening style taste.

Embedded With A Massive 4500MAH Battery And Android-Based Operating System

The compact yet powerful Cayin N3Ultra provides a robust battery life with its 3.85V 4500mAH Lithium battery. This efficient power management system provides a playback time of up to 11.8 hours with 3.5mm single-ended IEM in solid-state timbre and 7.6 hours with 4.4mm balanced IEM in vacuum tube timbre. It supports fast charging with QC3.0, allowing you to charge from 20% to 80% in around 1 hour, ensuring minimal downtime. The Cayin N3Ultra runs on an Android-based system with a Qualcomm 425 CPU, delivering a smooth and responsive user interface. Along with all its high-performance features and components, the portable Cayin N3Ultra supports up to 1TB storage expansion via TF card and OTG USB.

Offers Easy Controls And Smart Indicator For Elevated User Experience

For a user-friendly experience, the Cayin N3Ultra features a 4.1" 720x1280 responsive touch screen, physical knobs and buttons for intuitive operation, all in a compact and lightweight design. It also equips a glowing HOME button functioning as a sampling rate indicator. To ensure seamless navigation, it includes a BACK key for easy access to files and menus. Above all, to showcase visual design appeals complementing the CNC precision build, the Cayin N3Ultra features a laser-drilled side-mounted tube window, adding a warm glow to enhance the immersive musical experience during playback.

Thoughtful Input And Output Stage For Connectivity With Various Devices

The portable Cayin N3Ultra provides versatile headphone and line-level outputs, with single-ended 3.5mm and balanced 4.4mm options. These outputs can produce either vacuum tubes or solid-state timbres, providing diverse sound listening experiences. The Cayin N3Ultra also features dual line outputs, with the 4.4mm balanced output configurable as either a headphone out or line out. You can adjust the output levels for maximum compatibility with various audio devices. The line out provides a clean, unamplified fixed voltage signal, ideal for connecting to external headphone amplifiers or integrated amplifiers in home audio systems. The Cayin N3Ultra equips a versatile connectivity interface, including USB audio input and output and S/PDIF coaxial output. This expands the compatibility of the Cayin N3Ultra to pair with amplifiers, active speakers and DAC setups, making it capable of operating with a diverse range of devices.

Designed With Safety-Ensuring Components For Smooth Operation

The Cayin N3Ultra digital audio player features innovative shock-absorbing mechanisms and suspension design to minimise vibrations and microphonic effects. It utilses custom-molded shock absorption Silicon housing to shield and hold the JAN6418 vacuum tube, reducing external interference. The device integrates suspension pins into its CNC aluminium frame, providing a vertical suspension effect for the tube, which helps relieve stress and enhances stability. The Cayin N3Ultra equips an inter-stage loop negative feedback (NFB) and FET control for the vacuum tube's power supply, ensuring consistent performance and stability.
