I got an iFi Gryphon yesterday. It is an impressive piece of kit. Excellent sound. Lacks nothing IMO. Very nice to be able to give bass a boost on some tunes
that are lacking, without muddying up the midrange. I've been listening with my Grado SR325X with G pads, and the sound is very relaxing and feels natural.
Each instrument has its own space. Voices really stand out, and don't get pushed back. Treble is very nice. Cymbals are all there, and there's no ear piercing highs.
Great soundstage. It can be widened even further by turning on xSpace. The buttons all have a quality feel. I like the small rubber feet that stop it from
sliding around on smooth surfaces.

It decodes everything I've thrown at it. I mostly use Tidal, Apple Music and Amazon HD.

It does a fantastic job with Bluetooth. Slight drop in sound quality, but seriously, really good.

Its has a great OLED screen, and lots of inputs. Included cables see to be of decent quality, but too short for my liking. I use my own anyway.

I give it the edge in a head to head with my Fiio Q15, which is also very good.
