The board can be swapped in seconds, without tools, for Cayin’s other N6iii motherboards.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cimg src=\"https:\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0960\/3199\/8339\/files\/cayin-n6iii-r202-digital-audio-player-with-r202-r-2r-1bit-audio-motherboard-photo-3.jpg?v=1791155680\" alt=\"Cayin N6iii digital audio player\" loading=\"lazy\"\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eThe R202 motherboard\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe R-2R DAC (192 × 0.1% thin-film resistors) decodes PCM natively up to 384kHz, and the 1-bit DAC (128 resistors) decodes DSD natively up to DSD256. Both are fully balanced, with a quad-channel fully balanced headphone amplifier built on INA1620 op-amps, a separate NJW1195 volume circuit with 256 steps of 0.5dB, 3.5mm and 4.4mm outputs and dual femtosecond clocks. Three modes choose between the DACs. Auto uses R-2R for PCM and 1-bit for DSD. R-2R mode gives a rich, smooth, relaxed sound with a spacious stage. 1-bit mode brings out delicate treble detail with precise imaging.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cimg src=\"https:\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0960\/3199\/8339\/files\/cayin-n6iii-r202-digital-audio-player-with-r202-r-2r-1bit-audio-motherboard-photo-4.jpg?v=1791155683\" alt=\"R202 audio motherboard sliding out of the Cayin N6iii\" loading=\"lazy\"\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eSwappable boards\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe quick-release latch is press, pull, push, click: no screws.
