FiiO K5 Pro Questions

Hi,
I'm considering a DAC that I can also use as a headphone amp. This one appears to be relatively new and has great reviews (but only 12 of them). https://www.amazon.com/dp/B07WT7TYWY/
It can work as a limited preamp with its line inputs and variable line outputs, so it will work really well for me... assuming it sounds good. Below are some details and specs:
  • AK4493 DAC chips for the ultimate in decoding performance, supporting up to 768kHz/32bit and native DSD
  • Equipped with XMOS XUF208 USB receiver chip+AKM AK4493 DAC+ Op-amps OPA1642 + flagship TI TPA6120
  • Extremely powerful headphone amplification for a total power output of up to 1.5 W under a 32Ω load, and up to 20Vpp at 300Ω
  • Multiple interfaces- headphone jacks(6.35mm) /RCA outputs+ USB Coaxial, Optical, and Line-in inputs
I'm not particularly familiar with the various chips used in DAC's, so any input on this model or the compnents in it would be appreciated.
