All of that is true, and none of it is relevant if you're using it as a digital transport. Those 1s and 0s don't need to be pure for your external DAC (Mojo, Dragonfly, etc...) to calculate and convert them perfectly.
Now, using headphone out of your smartphone is a whole other issue.
that looks fun, what type of tube does it take? there's now 1000's more possibilities to tweak your sound
running different 12AX7 variants in my tube preamps is one of my favorite audio hobbies, its amazing how much a tube can shape the sound in a guitar and mic. i haven't really messed with them on the playback side much.
It has an American Tube 6111/ 6021 and paired with my Beyerdynamic DT990 Pro the sound has a different warmer sound. I find it needs about 5 or 10 minutes warming then ready to go. Only about a 4 hour battery life but it is powering a tube and being a parent I am lucky if I can get 1 hour in at a time!

I just received a pair today as a bundle with my Zen 2.0 and I would say, you should get them especially for $5. Everyone should have at least one pair if they use earbuds.
The best inexpensive earbuds I tried till now, are the ones that comes with most Huawei smartphones since the P6, the sound signature and fit is similar to old ipod stock earbuds but more refined, detailed bass and awesome mids. It sounds way better than Apple Earpods, you can get those for 10 bucks online
