Cayin i5 Lossless Android DAP with AKM4490 DAC supporting 32/384 PCM + 64/128 DSD

Can the i5 easily connect to the Mojo? Some sales man said its not easy.

 
I haven't gotten it to work yet either. The i5 is saying the coax is connected (sign lights up when using the correct pole cable) but the Mojo isn't receiving anything.
 
Is there a shortcut to see the file properties or does one always needs to click the 3 dots in the top right corner, followed by the properties button?
Also, Andy, in that properties menu several titles are still in Chinese, not in English.

Cayin is coming out with the usb c to coaxial cable.
At this moment the firmware still does not support the player to be used as transport.

 
That makes sense, I was going crazy trying all the cables over and over again

My goal with the i5 is i5/Music Player app/EQ/Mojo/iem

  I was at AV One in the earlier afternoon and managed to test the player from my SD card as well as Tidal from their downloaded app.
My wallet was not that lucky though as I bought it right away as I loved the sound.

Sorry, my fault, I was compiling an i5 product information sheet for the reviewer but was detoured to other issues, will get back to you as soon as I get that completed.

The USB digital output should, according to the development team, be available by next firmware upgrade schedule on 25th July 2016. :beerchug:

next firmware upgrade schedule on 25th July 2016. 

 
Hope it includes sorting by album artist and proper gapless for all format (or at least FLAC).
No proper gapless is a dealbreaker!
 
ohm and something to clarify: Does the i5 also have this mysterious 5,800 file limit for library view like some other players?
 
Very much looking forward still to try the i5 next week.

Finally.



I just landed yesterday so still kinda tired to make detailed impressions, but they sound freaking nice as hoped.

UI also smoother than demo unit, albeit there's still lag here and there but for basic operation, they're okay.

Leather case is kinda too thick imo but feels nice.

Standby mode is nice. Plugged it off the charger at 0528AM, at 0756AM still 100% so I think I don't need to turn it off. Really nice.

Sounds promising. How is gapless and is there any file limit?
