I've read nothing but good things about the Cayin integrated. The Chinese are producing some outstanding tube gear these days at a fraction of the cost of American and European designs.
I recently stumbled into a chance to hear a few of the Dared products while visiting a local tube geek's place. I left thinking that if I were a manufacturer of high end tube amplifiers I would be terribly concerned about the next couple of years. Not only did the Dared stuff sound very musical, they did so at about 1/4 the cost of equivalent Euro/American designs.
