Product Description
The Pro iDSD Signature is our new reference-class flagship. The Pro iDSD Signature is iFi's new flagship reference class DAC and then some. The Signature edition builds on the strengths of the original, multi-award-winning Pro iDSD. It continues to cater for those who love good music delivered at the highest quality. Use the Pro iDSD Signature as a standalone unit, a DAC/preamp, a network streamer and a headphone amplifier. The Signature takes the original Pro iDSD and pushes it even further towards perfection. It has a darker sonic background and punchier bass, upgraded power supply components for 300% lower system noise, matched NOS GE5670s tubes, USB1.0 support for PS4/PS5, a new aluminum remote, and the premium iPower Elite power supply included.
Unmatched Linearity
Powered by quad-stack of Burr Brown DACs, the Pro iDSD Signature achieves unmatched linearity and impeccable channel separation—a design legacy from iFi's mastering-grade DAC, the Pro iDSD.
Professional Grade DSD1024 Mastering
Remastering content to high resolution DSD has previously only been available to a select few, including the world's best mastering houses. The Pro iDSD Signature is the first DAC that brings this once exclusive processing to the hands of the consumer via a custom-coded FPGA, to transform any file and ultimately make music sound closer to a professionally remastered recording.
Switchable Solid-State or Tube Circuitry
Choose between two fully balanced Class-A circuit modes—discrete solid-state or tube—in real time. Both use the highest-grade components, with the tube mode powered by hand-selected, matched NOS GE5670 valves. Love the rich, analog warmth of tubes? Activate Tube+ mode to boost 2nd-order harmonics by 6 dB for an even more fluid, musical sound.
DLA Network Streaming via Wi-Fi or Ethernet
Stream high-resolution music wirelessly to your Pro iDSD Signature using Airplay or your favourite DLNA/UPnP player—all from the comfort of your couch.
