Hi-Res True Native playback from MP3 to DSD256, PCM384 and DXD384 High-performance DAC chip from ESS Technology’s Sabre HiFi series Quad DAC+ and Time Domain Jitter Eliminator Delivers ultra-low distortion, excellent clarity and impressive dynamic range Cable uses silver-plated copper conductors in a ‘twisted pair’ configuration Adjusting the volume on connected device controls volume level in the GO link’s DAC PCM to 32-bit/384kHz, DSD to 11.2MHz (DSD256) and MQA Headphone amp feeds a gold-plated 3.5mm socket S-Balanced configuration reduces noise and crosstalk GO link from iFi audio - the headphone dongle linking you with your music. Its purpose is twofold. First, to enable corded headphones and earphones to connect to digital devices that don’t have a 3.5mm headphone output. Second, even if a device does have a headphone socket, the GO link delivers a big sonic upgrade. This is because its sophisticated DAC (Digital-to-Analogue Converter) and headphone amp circuitry is superior to the audio tech contained within mobile devices and computers. At one end of the GO link is a USB-C connector, at the other is the DAC and headphone amp circuitry, both housed in robust yet lightweight magnesium alloy enclosures. In between is a 6cm length of flexible cable – this aids practicality, allowing the DAC/amp section to be angled towards the listener and reducing stress on the USB port to which the GO link is connected. Superior sound with a twist.
