I was already using the previous version (1.2) on an iMac, and I was already very excited about it. Bought the Black because it works directly on an iPhone or iPad, and also because it has come down in price but has had the necessary upgrades. Handy for work or on the go.
In terms of sound quality, I had the same expectation, but was blown away when I listened to the first track. What a stereo image and what a volume. He does that better than his older brother. I switched a few times because I couldn't believe it, but yes; it's really an improvement.
And for this price worth every cent. He sends me a Fidelio X1 headset, no problem at all. I don't have a lot of 96Khz material myself, but I don't really hear the difference, but with BitPerfect for example, it plays 44 to 96 to 24-bit natively.

Excellent DAC or headphone amplifier. Small enough to hang on your phone. With a good pair of headphones you can definitely hear improvement compared to the traditional output. You do have to buy a USB adapter cable with it. However, you do not have to make this investment for standard moderate earplugs.

Significantly improves the sound of your digital audio collection! Of course it helps to have high quality music files and/or the same high quality audio equipment (decent headphones, good stereo, etc.).
But even apart from that... this fantastic device is well worth the money.
