This is the ultimate portable headphone DAC. Connect to your laptop, MacBook, tablet or smartphone or any other digital device with a USB port for sensational sound at home, in the office, or on the move.

The DAC section of the GO bar uses a powerful 16-core XMOS micro controller to process the audio data received at the USB input. ifi's in-house team has programmed the XMOS firmware to optimise sound quality and ensure a perfect partnership with the GO bar‘s 32-bit Cirrus Logic DAC chipset.

A customised digital filter minimises pre-echoes and ringing artefacts. iFi’s GMT (Global Master Timing) precision clock system ensures ultra-low jitter.

  • Ultra-res PCM up to 32-bit/384kHz via USB ​
  • Native playback up to DSD256​
  • 2x DXD​
  • Full MQA decoding

The GO bar’s smart alloy case sports physical buttons for precise volume adjustment plus controls to select between various sonic tuning options. A column of coloured LEDs provides a handy guide to the format and sample rate of the digital audio currently playing, and whether XBass+ and/or XSpace are engaged.

The amp’s design combines sonic purity with power.

  • 475mW into 32 ohms​
  • 7.5V into 600 ohms

At one end is an asynchronous USB-C input and at the other a pair of headphone outputs.

  • 4.4mm fully balanced output – headphones with a balanced cable/connector can benefit from the fully balanced circuitry of the GO bar
  • 3.5mm S-Balanced output – ifi's S-Balanced tech cuts crosstalk and noise by 50% with regular single-ended headphones.

Accessories include a leather travel case and a Lightening to USB-C, no need to buy a Camera Connection Kit, plus a USB-C OTG cable and a USB-C to USB-A adapter.
