Our portable DAC and headphone amplifier will improve the sound quality of your music.

Whether you are listening via headphones on the bus or via your system on the sofa, the award-winning xDSD makes your music sound better.

Wireless. Wired.

The xDSD is for people who love to listen — on the go or at home.

You choose wireless via Bluetooth® or wired via USB or SPDIF.

Apple or Android, DAP, games console or TV, just connect the xDSD and enjoy the ultimate audio experience.

Hi-Res. Future-proof.

The xDSD plays high-quality digital audio file formats up to DSD512. Listen to your favourite tracks as they were meant to be.

In love with Hi-Res streaming? Listen to Tidal HiFi and Spotify Premium with ease.

The xDSD is also MQA ready straight out of the box. Use with Tidal Masters on your computer or mobile.

Bluetooth freedom

The convenience of Bluetooth® means your headphones connect to the xDSD, leaving your phone or chosen device wire free. Pop the xDSD in your pocket and it’s business as usual but with much better sound.

The xDSD boasts both aptX™ and AAC™ Bluetooth® for CD-like quality. With standard Bluetooth®, the sound quality drops by 30%, not so with the iFi Bluetooth® implementation. Just a little iFi magic for you!

Superior sonics

With amazing amplification, driven by 500 mW of power, the xDSD handles almost any headphones and it easily partners up with active home speakers.

And, of course, we’ve included our exclusive optional ‘sonic fine-tuning extras’ to add further nuances to your listening.

xBass+® cleans and restores the bass to give you a richer, deeper sound and 3D+® opens up your music to bring a live-concert atmosphere into your living room.

Perfectly balanced

iFi’s exclusive S-Balanced technology means that you gain the advantages of a balanced connection even when using an unbalanced one.

On headphones this means lower distortion, less interference, and reduce crosstalk.

Smart. Stylish.

The battery lasts up to 10 hours and ‘smart’ tech ensures you enjoy optimum listening time adjusted according to your usage. The xDSD has a separate USB charging socket.

And finally, with its metallic chrome finish and elegant, ergonomic design, based upon the Japanese Zen garden, it puts the ‘x’ back into sexy.

Micro DAC is a USB digital-to-analog (DAC) converter with two outputs, one analog and one digital (optical). Itʼs ideal for converting the audio from your computer into a high-quality analog format without needing to carry anything larger than a flash drive. The sound quality available from the typical headphone jack on a portable device or coming from the standard-issue soundcard found in virtually every computer leaves a lot to be desired.  Micro DAC delivers a marked upgrade in sound quality, compared to just plugging your headphones directly into your unitʼs headphone jack.

Use the 1/8-inch analog output to connect any headphones, and enjoy vibrant high-fidelity sound. There is a gain switch that boosts the signal level, so you can drive even high-impedance headphones to a robust loudness level. And since virtually all high-quality audio equipment has an optical digital input, Micro DACʼs optical digital output is perfect for driving that equipment with a pure digital signal—especially valuable since most computers do not have a digital output.

Micro DAC has a rugged aluminum housing and is USB-bus-powered. Getting professional-quality audio from your computer couldnʼt be easier!

  • Aluminum housing for ruggedness while traveling
  • 1/8" headphone output
  • 1/8" coaxial digital output
  • Gain switch for high-impedance headphones, to easily drive any model
  • Slim, small design for portability
  • Professional audio quality
  • 16-bit/48kHz audio conversion over a USB connection
  • USB-bus-powered
Requirements
  • Windows 7 - Windows 10 Compatible
  • OSx 10.7.5 - 10.11 Compatible

 

ARTSOUND VD-231 HDMI MALE TO VGA FEMALE CONVERTER ADAPTER CABLE This Adapter Cable supports resolutions up to 1920 x 1080 (1080p Full HD) including 720p and 1600 x 1200 for HDTV monitors or projectors. The gold-plated HDMI connectors provide wear and corrosion resistance to ensure a long lifespan. HDMI Male to VGA Female Video Converter Adapter Cable for PC Laptop HDTV Projectors and other HDMI Input Devices:
  • Supports resolutions up to 1920 x 1080 (1080p Full HD) including 720p and 1600 x 1200 for HDTV monitors or projectors
  • Gold-plated HDMI connectors provide wear and corrosion resistance to ensure a long lifespan
  • With this version, we added a standby function to lower the energy consumption
  • On the past design of HDMI to VGA converters, if HDMI port was connected to the device, VGA port will keep working, now, we added an environmental friendly standby function to make sure when there are no signal outputs from VGA, convertor will be at a low energy consumption, in the meanwhile to produce less heats
  • Lower energy consumption, heat-reduced, extends the life of the product; after receiving customer’s feedback that the product will get overheated, we improved the operating current of the product to lower from 220mA to 120mA
  • More stable performance and not easy to skip the screen, we improved the design of chips, mainboard and circuit to make it more stable when transmitting signal

Digital to Analogue Converter

Thanks to a Wolfson 24-bit DAC, a 24-bit/96kHz driverless USB Audio 1.0 input and S/PDIF and TosLink digital inputs, the DacMagic 100 takes the sound from your computer, iPod, TV and other digital devices and adds detail, depth and added clarity to give you a true audio experience.

Generally the digital to analogue converter found in typical digital devices is pretty poor and won’t extract the truest quality of audio from your sources. The DacMagic 100 works by taking a direct digital audio signal from your device to bypass its soundcard or DAC. It then digitally processes the audio signal using our custom designed technology, dramatically improving sound quality and reducing distortion. This results in greater detail, sparkling clarity and a deeper scale to all of your audio.
