First impressions after getting mine yesterday: (TL;DR - Good product with cool features for it's price point) Great amp and DAC for this price point, perfect for a pair of monitors or bookshelf speakers. I personally am using mine with my AKG K7XXs and so far it seems pretty great. Wouldn't suggest it for very high impedance headphones though, the K7XXs are only ~62 ohms so they are relatively easy to drive. Through my brief testing (on USB) there is a slight delay (as expected, delay is very small but just enough to be noticeable) which makes watching videos a bit uncomfortable due to audio/video de-sync (which of course if I planned on using it for that I would've just gotten an AVR), but of course as expected the experience when listening to music was excellent. The Bluetooth is a nice feature and works really well, and the overall build quality is excellent. The volume knob turns very smooth and the click on the input selector feel clean and refined. The unit itself feels very solid and the weight of the device itself makes it seem very stable making it unlikely to slide around.
I would've liked to see a drop for the AI-301DA but I'm still happy with this.

HaxtriickzI'm kind of surprised about the delay. I'm using it for my battle station with 2 bookshelf speakers and a sub, and my headphones. My m-audio audiophile had no problem and the drivers even had an option to adjust if experiencing delay. This can be fixed via software in the drivers.
