"There is a 32bits to 24bits conversion occurring in the product, on the master's amplifier."

This means that using 32-bit USB audio input is somewhat compromised.
From what I saw, this also happens when using DSD files: they are converted to PCM, and between master and companion is sent PCM (not DSD).

So, how bad does it sound?
