Exactly what I was looking for. I was tired of the buggy interface of my Asus Strix DLX soundcard so upgraded to this. It's nice not having any drivers as everything is customised via the touchscreen.

I compared getting this vs getting a decent sound card with external MAP… And originally went for the sound card. Ended up getting this GSX1000 on a great special, and its an awesome upgrade on even a good soundcard. Great DAC and AMP qualities.
Works beautifully with the Sennheiser GSP 600... AAA+++
I've had the GSX1000 Amp (and GSP500 headset) for about a year and they work extremely well together. The virtual surround sound (7.1) from the Amp is exceptional. The main game I have been playing is Realm Royale which produces very complex "3D / 7.1" sounds - I can hear all the sounds clearly and tell what direction footsteps, mounts, gunshots are coming from etc. Even though the 7.1 surround sound is simulated (Headphones only have 2 speakers after all) the sound is very realistic and sound direction is easy to determine after a few hours usage (I think one's ear (brain) has to learn how to use the virtual sound?). The Amp works well with my 2017 iMac (and Win10) games. The controls on the Amp are amazingly well setup and easy to use. I had no trouble setting up the amp under Win10, and slight problems on my iMac. If the instructions are followed very closely they get you there! Once setup the Amp has worked faultlessly every time under Win10 and MacOS.
You need to get this. You need this. This will transform your listening experience.
The Sennheiser GSX 1000 Audio Amplifier is a beautiful external USB sound card equipped with the best 7.1 virtual surround sound system we've heard so far, and a host of other interesting features primarily aimed towards hardcore gaming.
Not much besides one usb cable to connect your device to your computer and of course your headphones/speakers to the amp. set windows playback speakers to 7.1 and you're done. the rest of the settings are on the amp itself.
Hopping for a new GSX with these cons addressed, then am 100% buyer. ... Btn Read More
7.1 sound is awesome, not like any other surround i heard; No drivers needed, plug&play
7.1 only has 16 bit/48000 no 24 bit; Mic quality is bad, tested with Game Zero (Motherboard mic sounds way better)
Audio can often feel like the power-supply of PC peripherals: it is the thing people spend the least money on. However if you take your gaming or media viewing seriously, you are missing out if you do not have a decent sound card and amplifier like the Sennheiser GSX 1000.
Sounds excellent throughout volume range, Great for music, movies and games, Best virtual surround sound unit I have ever tested, Looks stylish; Touch screen is functional and easy to use, Ability to control media and chat volume separately
Not the most powerful of amplifiers; Warm sound may not be to everyone's taste; Pricey
Product looks super sexy. The design is fantastic. Unfortunately... this product needs a 2.0 version. The presets are incredibly overly sensitive to even the slightest motion... I had to set all the presets to the same thing because even simply waving my hand over it would change it a different...
