The first remarkable thing about Essence One is the amplification without any problems of headphones with high impedance. The device doesn’t have an impedance switch, but I did not feel the need to implement one. The Asus DAC was silent, noise-free, including with the Sennheiser IE8, headphones that are known to be very sensitive to noise, electromagnetic or analogue. The unit drove with authority both IE8 and the large HD800 or Audez’e LCD-2. 

 
This is VERY interesting.  Compared to a Burson-160D.
 
I wonder what you guys think!
