DAC Chip

You may not even realise it, but most of us use a digital-to-analogue converter (commonly known as a DAC) daily. Built into your computers, tablets and smartphones, a DAC is fundamental to unlocking the convenience of digital music. Any device that acts as a digital sound source will need a DAC to convert digital audio to analog. A DAC converts the digital information stored in “0s and 1s” into an analog signal that's passed to speakers or headphones and ultimately our ear. In short, DACs play a large part in making digital music hearable.

While this technical process is undoubtedly impressive, the DAC embedded into your smartphones or laptops is nowhere good enough to listen to your favourite music recordings in high quality. So, if you want to listen to music in high quality, an external DAC is essential to allow headphones or speakers to perform at their potential. An external DAC, first and foremost, will improve audio quality dramatically.

Pair with Laptop via USB

A majority of people use a laptop as the primary source device to listen to music or watch movies. Since the laptop is an essential part of the audio chain there are headphones and devices designed to work a laptop or computer system flawlessly. With the availability of USB connectivity, it becomes easier to pair various devices like an Amp, DAC or even headphones without worrying about drivers or any additional piece of software.

This design feature allows you to have complete control over the desired volume according to your listening preferences.

Cayin-RU6 (Unboxed)

The sound quality from this Dac is slightly better than that of my previous wireless Dac from Fiio (BTR 3K). The price difference is huge in comparison. It drains the power of my mobile phone fast and also gets heated up quickly. Those who want to enjoy a pleasant sound with eyes closed may opt for this Dac.

Thank you for taking the time to leave a review for the Cayin-RU6. We do apologize for any inconvenience regarding the power drainage and heating issue. If you have any further questions or concerns, please don't hesitate to reach out to us.
