What does "ships within 24/48 hours" mean?

In a nutshell, ships within 24/48 hours basically means that your product will be shipped out or dispatched from our warehouse within 24/48 hours after placing the order. It also indicates that the products are readily available at our warehouse and once we receive your order, we dispatch it out at the earliest either on the same day or the next working day depending on when you’ve placed your order.


What it does not mean:

A lot of our customers assume that it means their order will get delivered to them within 24/48 hours, but that’s not what it means. For an order to reach you, it can take anywhere up to 3-4 business days, depending on which part of India you are placing an order from.

If you see products marked as “🔋 Battery Capacity”, rejoice in the knowledge that your device is equipped with a robust battery, providing you with extended usage time and reducing the frequency of recharges, so you can focus on your favourite tracks.
Storage

Storage is important. Even in this era of streaming music, you’d want to make sure you have enough space to store your amazing collection of music on your player. Imagine a long flight, it’s your offline files you’re going to be listening to.


Keeping your entire collection of Hi-Resolution music in one place is the most convenient way of carrying your music library. However, Hi-Resolution files are heavy. Most songs in a FLAC format can be about 100mb per track. So more space is always better.


Most players support both internal storage and expandable storage via an external memory card. Make sure you check both - the internal memory on players, and consider the maximum supported size of the expandable storage. It’s best to keep your library of offline files in expandable storage and use the internal storage for saving files from streaming apps.




At the time of writing this article, MicroSD cards for 256 GB were easily available and affordable for less than Rs. 2000. Higher capacity cards are also available, but that seems to be the sweet spot.
Built like a Tank

No need to worry about durability.


If you're seeking a headphone or gear with a strong, rugged build, this snapshot indicates that this is the one for you.


If you see a product marked with “🪖 Built like a Tank", it means this product is crafted with metal in its design, ensuring exceptional robustness and durability.

Elevating Hi-Fi Experiences Since 1993

Founded in 1993, Zhuhai Spark Electronic Equipment Co., Ltd. has been dedicated to perfecting audio equipment under the brand name Cayin. With a commitment to delivering top-notch Hi-Fi products, Cayin embeds cultural richness into its audio range, catering to diverse budgets to make premium music experiences accessible. From tube amplifiers and CD players to speakers, Cayin maintains a consistent benchmark of quality, ensuring a compelling price-to-performance ratio across its offerings.

In 2013, Cayin expanded its horizons into personal audio, unveiling a line of Digital Audio Players (DAP) and desktop audio products. The brand further diversifies its portfolio with portable audio products, including amplifiers and in-ear monitors, empowering users with a broad spectrum of audio choices.

Explore Collection
The N7’s layout is excellent and it’s impressive to see how many digital and analog in- and outputs Cayin has provided. There’s not only that, there’s also the CLASS A/AB amplification circuit.
It might actually be my go-to DAP just for the sheer fun and excitement of what it going to do to the next IEM I attach it to. Not to mention that tonally it came across as very balanced and likable in every pairing performance.
The discrete DAC can decode DSD512 and PCM 32bit/768kHz natively. The DAP also sports a discrete LPF circuit to tune the output of the DAC to provide a smooth and natural sound.
The build quality is excellent on the black aluminum body and the gold-colored pieces also feel very sturdy and well-made.
The N7 has plenty of power for most headphones, portable and full-size. I didn't have any issues with the Meze Liric or the Focal Stellia during my testing, and IEMs will also pair well.
So, in the heart of N7 you will find a fully balanced discrete resistor 1-bit direct DSD DAC which processes DSDs directly without conversion.
