Cayin N3 PRO, more advanced than ever before

The Cayin N3 PRO is the new Hi-Res player from the Asian firm, with dual AK993 DAC and capable of decoding DSD256.

This dual balanced Hi-Res audio player features the best components and balanced 4.4mm and 3.5mm headphone outputs. In power figures, it reaches up to 800mW and a wide range of connections.

High-performance dual DACs

Featuring two AKM AK4493EQ DAC chipsets, it natively decodes up to DSD256 and 32 Bit / 384kHz with stellar dynamic range and resolution.

When operating in Mono mode, the DAC will offer better dynamic range, signal to noise ratio and channel separation.

Powerful 800 mW headphone output

The DAC outputs the hot and cold signal streams identically except for polarity, which will pass through LPF and a headphone amplifier in parallel. When L+, L-, R+ and R- are transmitted and processed independently, common mode noise will be canceled and crosstalk will be reduced.

The headphone differential amplifier outputs the difference between the hot and cold signals, and this will significantly increase the output power and channel separation.

Dual operating mode: triode and ultra-linear modes

With triode mode, the soundstage will be tightened up. Images are better focused and the midrange is more direct and ideal for string and vocal based tracks.

Ultra-linear mode, on the other hand, will improve the transition between frequencies and deliver a more energetic sound. The soundstage will open up and you'll get a better sense of space and sound dimension. Perfect for instrumental songs that require punch, dynamics and control.

Bluetooth v5.0

Enjoy music without being limited by physical connections and pair your favorite speakers or headphones.

Take advantage of streaming services and high-resolution codecs such as LDAC, UAT, or AAC.

Plays and stores

With the Cayin N3 PRO you will reach 11 hours of battery life without a break.

Its custom-built lithium battery and carefully tuned management system make the N3 PRO an excellent alternative for hours of music enjoyment.

In addition, you can store up to 1TB of songs thanks to its MicroSD slot.

What an amazing little thing!
I spend so much money on other DAPs, and that it, I love the n30 pro sound and features.
