It all depend on what you want from your dap, for me cayin i5's streaming capability is why decided to buy it. Beside Cayin has great customer service.

Finally decided to splash the cash to get Cayin I5 today. I have to say i'm impress so far both with the sound quality and the finishing quality of the product. It will be a nice addition to my AK120. However is there anyway to reduce the hiss with sensitve ie ? the only ie i have that can pair...
