In appearance the cord looks the same. I have no idea about the welds. Now, in favor of the CS02, I find that the plug (3.5mm audio/2.5mm/4.4mm balanced) is made of rhodium-plated material. The latter can make a difference. 😉

Your comment truly sets the bar very high and even more so at these prices. ✌🏻

You already know that I am a very proud user for enjoying this magnificent IEM, it is now my turn to say with these words that I absolutely agree with your description based on your vivid experience. The cable that accompanies the kit is the S4; and yes, they make a good marriage, but still and...

Well yes, this NEO 5 matures elegantly as you use it. My synergy right now is this combination: N3U+NEO 5+Cable CS02. With a few sessions they pay off as an auditory gift, being very addictive, fortunately. In my case, hours of listening without any discomfort. I also attest that the Cayin N3U...

With the difference that it would cost you more... 😂

I would never have guessed how capable this DAP's EQ is here. My surprise in capital letters came when I connected my brand new DUNU Falcon Ultra, a musical all-rounder and in just a burn of 5 hours. The first thought was: do I need something else? I do not need anything else!. Wonderful...

The iBasso CB18 is a silver plated 6N high purity monocrystalline copper cable. High quality Type-C to Type-C OTG.

Thank you very much, I'll go over everything and catch up. ✌🏻

Thanks again, I'm learning... 🤗

Thank you! I imagine that for you it will be something quite regular and this N3U will have been successful. ✌🏻

Ok! And to the amp with RCA input? I was confused when I saw the 3.5mm output on the other end. Interesting option. Thanks! 👍🏻

I wanted to know the function that this symbol indicates in the 4.4mm BAL output or in what cases it can be used. Thanks!

That's right, just as you say. ✌🏻

I ask this based on my ignorance: if the tubes fail, does it continue to function in Solid-Estate mode? 🤔

Of course, faced with such abundance and saturation of markets, we have gone from consumption to hyperconsumption. Thus supposedly each one will know what he wants or believes he needs. There is a lot of talk about whether the N3U or the M5U, but call me what you want, I don't care, I won't buy...

GS849? 🤔

Thanks for confirming this fact. When you have to invest €100 or more in a cable that comes from China you think about it several times. I have the Shure SE425 and not all MMCX connectors fit well.

Well, I don't quite see what you suggest. Is it an extraction tool? 🧐 Maybe I'll ask Penon since they also sell the Falcon. 🤔

I know! Read my question carefully. It seems that Falcon connectors are a bit particular and not all MMCX... Something like: "Patented MMCX Connectors" 🤔

Interesting cable and price. I would try the MMCX connection for a Dunu Falcon Ultra that I am about to receive, although if I read correctly, it seems that these connectors are very particular in this IEM. Thanks! 👍🏻

For those who don't know, files can also be transferred via USB/OTG pendrive directly to the N3U in addition to reading them. 👍🏻 You can even see photos! 🧐

I just feel proud to enjoy this DAP, nothing more than that. I understand your wishes and respect them, of course. There is so much to choose from... Later I will invest more money and level up if possible, but I assure you that this N3U will stay in my collection. When I need portability I go...

In my case I don't care how long the battery lasts. I bought this N3U for when I'm at home, in my favorite chair or on the patio, while surfing the web, to recreate, relax and concentrate on the music of my liking. I charge it at night while I sleep and it doesn't bother me...says a very happy...

Exactly, I said it in another message and now I make your words my own...and it sounds great! What headphones do you use? In my case, I love my NEO 5, which I listen to at a volume of no more than 20% and at HI gain. Crazy!
