“Can this DAC help me hear every single word in a recorded interview clearly, crisply? I am focusing on vocals, not instruments. Will a conversation be clearly heard if an interview was recorded in a restaurant?”

It would be helpful to know if you have a professional grade data recorder and microphone or if you are using a Smartphone as your recording device. This answer applies to the phone assumption. There is a lot of detail brought to the soundstage imaging that a quality DAC will, by design, set in the right places for the listener. The DAC is a interpreter of the digital signal as recorded, replayed and received. The quality of the sound source device, the recoding equipment and the quality of the recording environment all go into the recorded material signal. "Vocals" as sung and the recorded spoken voice are significantly different recording challenges. But, the Dragonfly DAC is very , very good at clarifying the midrange most "vocals" occupy in the final production of commercially produced recordings. If your recorded data file has the voice of your subject clearly discernible in playback, this device should improve the clarity of that voice. But is will do so as well for everything else that is on the data file. A good DAC cannot "clean up" recordings.It enhances every bit of digital data it receives. I hope this helps.
Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.individual musical instruments are clearer with this device so I can only guess that spoken language will be clearer as well.
