No, Crinical is just one guy. The DAC matters.
From 50 years of being a music lover and high end HiFi guy, all of this matters.
A good DAC drives headphones better and resolves better. It is just a fact Minimum of an Audioquest Dragonfly Red, and up from there is where I recommend to begin.

That guy has almost single handedly destroyed truth in headphones. Just another grifting pos on the internet.

honestly i don't even have a lot of insight in what crinacle says, sometimes its sound critique and sometimes, like in case of the "you don't need an amp" video, i know where he is coming from, but clearly he just gets the camera rolling and starts talking.
thing is sometimes i want to give good advice myself and it hurts when somebody uses a link to a crinacle video to refute something you say.

What was the TL;DR of his video? Does the apple dongle work well enough for everything?

yes, but he does mention that there are fringe cases, doesn't mention that there are loads of fringe cases though
