I think the main reason capri attracted to me was the form factor, cable/dac/mic in one box (no dongle which i don't like). I don't use iphone much for music nowadays. Was thinking if i could make it more useful somehow lol. I don't think it's worth it unless im stuck on iphone 7.Honestly, given what you described, it is probably not going to be an upgrade. I tried it with TFZ EX5s from Massdrop (around $68) and there is a definite hiss. If you listen to noisy music loud you may not care, but I don't so I'm less than enamored with these. The accessport is a better way to go.
If you want to have an improved DAC/amp and not a lot of stuff to carry, the accessport would be a better choice. It is a very small dongle, not much bigger than the apple camera kit, that you can plug your iems into. This is what I do at work.
At home (if not using full sized cans), I use the apple camera kit to an external DAC/amp.
So no, I don't think the Capri is for you. And it may not be for me either unless I get some IEMS with 2 pin detachable cables that I love........
If you are curious and in the US I will send you the Capri to try. Then you cen decide and let us know what you found. (I bought 2).
