I love how we are starting to go backwards with tech like this, the future needs more analog

Pendulum swings. We went too far too fast.

I discovered Digital-to-Analog converters and vacuum tubes during the pandemic, replaced my whole setup for headphones and speakers after discovering Schiit Audio.

I highly doubt this thing is analog in any way.

This is analog in the sense that it has a Digital to Analog "Cirrus Logic WM8523 DAC"converter and a 3.5mm headphone jack, so does indeed enable analog if you use a wired headphone, and it is absolutely a step in the right direction over shitty bluetooth quality audio.
