The build quality feels great compared to cheaper no-name DACs.
I think the build quality and design of the headphone-amp is excellent.
The packaging and build quality of the D1 are amazing.

I am satisfied with this portable small DAC as it works well with my Mass Drop Sennheiser HD6XX.
73% found the noise floor and hum to be minimal, but 27% detected a faint hum
I tried other DACs on Amazon that cost a fraction of what the Audioengine cost, but I had problems with all of them, such as buzzing and hissing sounds.
86% appreciated the portable design
The device is highly portable and convenient for on-the-go use due to its compact and lightweight design.
72% appreciated the ample power and gain
The device has more juice than I need and is powerful enough to get loud.
I can drive high-impedance headphones with the powerful D1.
88% praised for its crystal-clear sound
I noticed an instant improvement in sound quality with the headphone-amps. Musical instruments sound alive as if I am at a concert hall. I can now pick out all the sounds within my music and can't believe I spent years relying on mediocre audio sources.
The sound is well balanced without being too warm or too thin.
The D1 provides a clear and professional sounding mix of the entire audio spectrum.
