If you're connecting via the USB cable it is possible to connect your device in DAC mode and play at up to 24bit/192kHz. Thankfully, this doesn't require any additional hardware or software to activate and the headphones take care of it all automatically.

One peculiarity is the LED on each earcup which glows with white light when the headphones are powered on. It's a nice aesthetic feature, but I'm not sure whether it's a necessity. Fortunately, the lights don't consume much power and won't impact the battery's life in any way. You can turn them off using the Focal & Naim app which also lets you manage EQ and voice assistants as well as some other settings. The app is simple to use and relatively lean however I did experience some difficulties getting used to the application.
