CAYIN iDAP-8 – DIGITAL AUDIO STREAMER

Cayin i-Series is a suite of three desktop products designed around optimal audio performance. Choose individual i-Series units for your needs, or combine all 3 for the ultimate high performance, all in-one headphone listening system.

- iDAP-8: Android based network music streamer and digital transport
- iDAC-8: High performance DAC with hybrid tube and solid state output modes
- iHA-8: High performance balanced Class A headphone amplifier

Fully-customized Android Digital Streamer

Android-based digital music streamer for desktop use. The iDAP-8 plays music files from Wifi, Bluetooth, hard drives, USB and SD cards and can do more than an ordinary streamer. It is not just a music server or streamer, but also a modern computer solution for your music collection that also sounds good.
This Android 9-based player with Google Play Store on board has a powerful Snapdragon 660 CPU. Some apps are pre-installed and others can easily be added. The iDAP-8 supports intelligent UX with an FPGA that generates an unadulterated I²s signal and is routed to the digital outputs via HDMI and AES/EBU.
The iDAP-8 is the perfect complement to the iDAC-8 D-A converter and the iHA-8 headphone amplifier. iDAP-8's entire 128GB internal music storage, native Android streaming apps for Apple Music and Tidal streaming in Hi-Res Lossless quality, as well as network-based NAS audio applications can be controlled via HiByCast and HiByLink from HiBy Music.
The iDAP-8 is incredibly easy to use. Music streaming has never been so much fun, and rarely has it sounded so good. One of the reasons for this is that the iDAP-8 is equipped with very high-quality components. For example, an oversized 45-watt toroidal transformer, which forms the centrepiece of the carefully selected components and creates the conditions for the best music streaming.
Play your music via Wi-Fi, Ethernet, Bluetooth, USB, SD card or via the 2.5-inch SATA hard drive slot, which is designed for an optional 4 TB hard drive. All inputs have been optimally shielded so that the signal path of the iDAP-8 is not disturbed.
The small DAC receives your streams, including Apple Music and Tidal feeds, which are protected by Direct Transport Audio to prevent resampling by Android. With HiByCast screen mirroring, you can control the iDAP-8's inputs and outputs from the comfort of your sofa via your Android or iOS device.
