ONKYO DP-X1 | Dual Sabre Dacs | Balanced | Sabre BTL Amp | MQA | DSD 256 | Android 5 |

The power is good the presentation is not bad and is not fatiguing the other...- Choosy

Sorry I5 stands for ? About weird cable .. I would say the 2,5 TRRS is not exactly easy for soldier, I agree this is quite a standard but for me listening DAPs with GRADO PS 1000 it's really difficult look for a custom cable or adapter- Choosy
