    Any evidence to back up this criticism of what OP is saying, or just blind faith in apple overcharging for "quality hardware"

      I think the shoe should be on the other foot, the Apple DAC is cheap and has been extensively tested by the audiophile community who look at data (eg ASR).
      I don't own any Apple products other than their DAC and it is great for cans that dont need much power.

  I have the one with 24bit/96KHz. Will this be a good upgrade?

    If your ears can tell the difference then why not lol

    Anything over 16bit/44KHz isn't worth the upgrade, unless you've got some really good headphones for your dog.

    Welcome to the world of marketing, where "bigger numbers" can pull the wool over the eyes of most people.

    Even selling a 24-bit DAC is really a lie. If you can find out which DAC chip is in your adaptor, find the datasheet for that chip online, and look through the specifications. The numbers to look for are usually under the label "SNR" (Signal to Noise Ratio), or sometimes under "ENOB" (Effective Number Of Bits).

    Most "24-bit" DACs list the SNR as around 108dB, or an ENOB of 18 bits. Both of these figures are telling you that "Yes our chip has 24 bits, but it achieves the same results as an 18-bit chip".

    If you have a really expensive chip, some achieve 20 bits equivalent performance.

    If the DAC actually had true 24-bit performance, which is an SNR of 144dB, then the amplifier part of the chip would add more noise than the DAC did, still bringing you back to about 20-bit equivalent performance. Even though modern electronics are getting better, this is one specification that isn't getting any significant improvement, because it's limited by the laws of physics. See here for more detail: https://www.thesoundadvocate.com/2021/07/the-24-bit-delusion…

    While manufacturers of 32-bit DACs can claim their DACs have 32 bits, they don't ever claim those DACs perform better than a 20-bit DAC. They put that information in the data sheet, confident that more than 99% of the population won't read the datasheet, and even fewer will be able to decipher the numbers in the datasheet. And even though the numbers are in the datasheet, they'll sometimes try to obfuscate them, by giving a "raw" figure, an "A-weighted" figure, and maybe a few more. And they'll be testing while running the chips from laboratory-grade ultra-low-noise power supplies in a shielded room, which your headphone adaptor won't have.

    There are SOME actual ADCs and DACs that achieve 24-bit performance, but they're not suitable for audio as their maximum sampling rate is around 1kHz, too low even for recording or replaying speech, let alone music. These ADCs and DACs use techniques that are effectively the same as averaging, to "average out" the noise. Such chips are used in 8-digit (laboratory-grade) benchtop multimeters, in gas sensors that detect in the parts-per-billion range, and anywhere that really small, slow waveforms are measured.

  I have a cheapo adaptor that gets so hot it will literally burn you. Would this get equally as hot?

    unlikely with reviews like that

  won't headphones need a DAC and an amp? Not seeing any power figures or impedance in the specs.
