hi,

Don't worry. They were not remark products.

my friend tell me that
CX8414 was same as CS8414, they all had same SPEC.

The different between CX8414 & CS8414 is CX 8414 was a cheaper version. Large log of chips which sell to factory to build their own products. Especially for Asia, China market. The standard of chips will not better than CS8414.

CS8414 was reach the factory's higher standard chips.

It means if U want the best 8414 chips. Pls choose CS8414.

thomas,

seems the sale manager inside HK cirrus dont know this issue.

he still working with me to find out what is happening.

i am not worry, because i just got 1 on hand. i just buy at RMB20, nothing to loss.

but it really work and i cant hear any different between.

frankie is working with his engineer and if they need, i will provide them for test.

[siu sin man tho]

RMB20 for this is really cheap.

CS 8414 cannot sell in this low price.

Is RMB 20 gurantee 100% work??

[takashi]

yes, orginal is RMB60.......but after argue...heeee
the guy give me at RMB20 each

i will not expect it 100% work for only RMB20...

but i am lucky~ just buy 2 pcs, 1 for myself and another for my friend.

i buy it is because it is funny~ i theat it as OBSOLETE product from cirrus

and i will not buy high performance ic from china , so many remarked IC as i know.

i have a customer, they can do the marking whatever you want unless you have large amount volume.
