Superb sound via PC speakers.
Much better quality than the onboard codec in Rog Strix Gaming motherboard. The downloaded App allows for creation of many different listening experiences. The sound quality produced from the Creative T100 speakers attached to the PC is amazing considering how small and inexpensive this DAC is.

Sound Blaster X1 for gaming on the go!
I use this with a Switch Lite and Simgot EM6L Crinacle Zero Blue and CCZ Warrior iem's all with cable upgrades and they sound really good together for gaming. The X1 sounds good with every iem i tried it with for gaming, Simgot EM6L Salnotes Zero Blon BL03 Tri Kai Truthear Hola CCZ Coffee Bean and the CCZ Warrior all sounding surprisingly good with only the KZ10 Pro sounding a bit too bright, i have both the GC7 and G6 Soundblaster's and this still holds up against both of them for gaming on the go P.S I've just recently ugraded the Type C cable and headphone extension cable to newer QED Connect cables and the sound has improved with a smoother richer detailed more balanced sound, my Simgot EM6LCrinacle zero blue's and CCZ Warrior now sound like a good pair of Beyer's for gaming on the go!

A good bit of Surround sound kit.
A great little DAC AMP and turns headphones into surround sound ones. Only 4 stars as the very short cable suppiled is poor quality and too short. Make sure the one you get can handle charging and data. It doesnt have to be c to c , I got a usb A to C. You need to down load the right app for either Windows or Android and scan your face for the headphone set up.

Get it if you want to power full sized headphones.
I bought this to use my full size analogue headphones with my Samsung S21 FE phone. It's great ! The fact that is an amp as well as a DAC makes itself shown. The Android app is also worth having.

Loss of 1 channel from poor design
Poor AUX seating leading to loss of one of the channel, needs to be positioned and force applied to get both channel which is dreadful.

Wilfully worse
So I set this up on pc no matter what settings I used under the super x FI mode. I could not make it sound superior to having the device turned off. Therefore only buy this if you want to make your sound, actively worse.It is also the worst shape, you will need an L shaped usb c adapter to make any logical use of this whatsoever.

Brilliance
Excellent sounding - warm and rich output - a real value for money.

Good Value At The Price Paid
At circa £26 It is good value; at this price I would buy again.
