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.

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

”It makes a handsome difference to your on-the-go sound.” ’What Hi-Fi?’ 2019 award-winner. Improve the sound of your smartphone The Cyrus soundKey uses a top quality DAC (Digital to Analogue Convertor) built into an ultra-low power circuit that lets you hugely improve the sound of your smartphone or tablet without rapidly draining the battery. Using a much better DAC than the one built into most smartphones and tablets means music sounds more dynamic, detailed and true-to-life. Compatible with Hi-Res music files A further bonus with the soundKey is that it’s compatible with Hi-Res music files up to 24 bit/96kHz. This means that, as well as MP3 and AAC files, it will also replay your Hi-Res FLAC files. Hi-Res makes the music sound more natural, with subtle detail easier to detect. Ultra-low power consumption A key advantage with this DAC over others is the extremely low power consumption. With a battery drain of less than 50 milliamps – under half the maximum recommended by Apple for use with their iOS devices – the soundKey is kind to your phone’s battery. What this means is a much longer phone battery life than when using other mini-DACs. The device itself is also battery-free. Works with Windows 10, Android 5+ and iOS9+ Compatible with Windows, Android and Apple devices the soundKey is suitable for just about any smartphone. Simply make sure you have the correct USB OTG (On The Go) connection (Apple Camera Kit connection for Apple iOS devices) and you’re good to go. Compact, robust and light Crafted using high quality brushed aluminium, the soundKey is both lightweight and strong. Its sleek design combined with its compact dimensions and mere 18g weight make it perfect for music on the move. Unlock the key to great sound from your smartphone, with the Cyrus soundKey.
