About Sound Blaster X1 Hi-res Super X-Fi External USB DAC and Headphone Amplifier
Overall Feedback:
80% positive
73% liked the solid build quality
The build quality of this headphone-amp is better than my cheaper Sound Blaster amp.
I bought this to listen to lossless audio with KZ Pro headphones and can easily tell the difference. The build quality is superb.
68% appreciated the seamless connectivity
The setup of the amp is easy and it can be used as a basic DAC/amp. It's a good solution for wired headphone users on PS5 with good volume and mic support, as I mentioned.
83% appreciated the ample power and gain
I have an insane headphone-amp that brings my planars to uncomfortable levels with its power.
I found that the headphone-amp has plenty of power to push my Kiwi Orchestra Lite IEMs and the sound is amazing.
I can drive the HD6XX with authority using the dongle that has plenty of power.
75% praised for its crystal-clear sound
I am able to hear each instrument, making the music sound richer and more complex.
The Sound Blaster X1 adapter delivers great sound quality and amplification with built-in AKM DAC, providing hi-res 24Bit/96Khz playback and excellent clarity and sound boost.
