I have it in my symph mkii, very pleased with it.
Certainly better than the apollo black face.
I think I prefer it to my dbox when I had that too. I find the apogee more euphonic in a good way and recall thinking the dbox a little astringent but in a good way ?

Check out the apogee website but I recall seeing some language that suggest so for the headphone DAC.
last year when they first introduced the symph mkii in the US, they were giving peeps a groove as well, so your mobile sonic experience over cans, say with you mbp, would be the same in your studio with the symph mkii ,was the way they advertised it ?

I was one of the ones that got a Groove at no cost during the Apogee promo when I purchased my Symphony MKII. The Groove really does sound nice and to me seemed like a pretty good improvement over just plugging headphones into the macbook pro.

Also, looks like it does not work with iPods, which is a shame.

I grabbed it so I can sit in my living room and do some editing/ headphone mixing in muy living room with something better than the MBP built in output. Cheap enough and should suit my need fine. I don't really see a scenario where I would want it connected to my phone.
