ifi xDSD Gryphon – premium klassi HD DAC ja võimas balanseeritud kõrvaklapivõimendi üheskoos
Tõeline metslane!
Kaasaskantavate DAC / kõrvaklapivõimendite probleemiks kipub olema see, et nad on orienteeritud, kas väga heale digitaalsele või analoog osale, kuid mitte mõlemale. xDSD Gryphon on sellest erinev. Just nagu müütilisel nimekaimul, on ka ifi xDSD Gryphonil kaks tõelist elajat ühes kestas.
Nende elajate taltsutamiseks on muidugi vaja ka häid kõrvaklappe. Samas jätab Gryphon klappide valikul sulle üsna vabad käed, sest selle seadme abil saad absoluutselt igast kõrvaklappist kõige mahlasema saundi välja pigistada. Lisa eelnevale ülimalt vastupidav ehituskvaliteet ja äärmine kompaktsus – saad tippklassi seadme, millest paremat on selle hinnaklassi juures võimatu leida.
Veebis tegutsev väljaanne Headfonics hindab seda seadet väga kõrgelt SIIN.

xDSD Gryphon kasutab PureWave signaali teekonda ja annab 32 oomi juures väljundiks 1,000mW .
Gryphon kombineerib endas OLED ekraani ja iFi’s CyberSync operatsioonisüsteemi, tulemuseks kasutajasõbralik praktilisus ning informatiivsus. Ekraanil kuvatakse kogu vajaminev teave, alates muusika kvaliteedist kui aku seisukorrani. Ja mis kõige olulisem – SilentLine tehnoloogia tähendab seda, et uhke ekraanilahendus ei lisa helisignaalile mitte mingeid segavaid sagedusi. Soovi korral saab ekraani ka seadetest välja lülitada.
Saadaval järeltellimisel
We use Qualcomm’s new QCC5100 Bluetooth processing IC in combination with proprietary circuits to create an audibly superior ‘Bluetooth engine’.
All the current high-definition Bluetooth audio formats are supported – Qualcomm’s aptX Adaptive and aptX HD, Sony’s LDAC and HWA’s LHDC, regular aptX and aptX Low Latency, AAC (Apple iOS devices) and SBC (the ‘plain vanilla’ Bluetooth codec).
Of the 24-bit-capable codecs, aptX Adaptive and aptX HD support up to 48kHz, while LDAC and LHDC reach 96kHz.
iFi’s ‘Bluetooth engine’ can also be updated over-the-air, so future codecs may be added.
The Burr-Brown True Native® chipset means file formats remain unchanged or ‘bit-perfect’. This means you are listening to music as the artist intended in the format in which it was recorded.
At iFi we use Burr Brown extensively in our products having selected it for its natural-sounding ‘musicality’ and True Native architecture. Our experience with this IC means we know how to make the most of it.
MQA (Master Quality Authenticated)
MQA is an award-winning British technology that delivers the sound of the original master recording. The master MQA file is fully authenticated and is small enough to stream or download. The xDSD Gryphon adopts MQA technology to receive and decode MQA audio and provide master-level sound.

It is a superior method to the traditional single-ended circuit approach. Balanced circuits reduce noise and crosstalk. Less Interference – clearer sound.
You normally find this set-up in products at the higher end of the price spectrum such as the Pro iCAN but iFi is now using this across its range to produce the best quality audio for all our customers.
The iFi exclusive S-Balanced technology made its debut in the original Pro iCAN. Since then, it has become a significant feature in across the iFi range and features as an integral part of the xDSD Gryphon.
It delivers the maximum performance from both single-ended and balanced headphones. The S-Balanced (single-ended compatible balanced) 3.5mm headphone output delivers the benefits of the balanced connection to single-ended headphones.
‘Negative feedback’ is used in amplifier circuits to compare the output signal with the input signal and correct errors, in order to control gain and reduce distortion.
For sound quality, this is positive; BUT commonly applied, one-size-fits-all ‘global negative feedback’ can also highlight different problems at the same time as solving others – corruption of the error signal, phase shifts, group delay and so on can all have a negative impact on sound quality.
We recognised that different parts of a circuit benefit from specifically optimised feedback loops and have developed a negative feedback system that is much more accurate than the usual approach. This incorporates multiple feedback paths instead of a global loop, each path optimised for a particular function and working synergistically with the others to deliver optimal overall performance.
Balanced, differential analogue circuit design has long been championed for its ability to reduce noise and cross-talk within the signal path by fully separating the left and right channels.
PureWave is a new, balanced, symmetrical dual-mono topology with short, direct signal paths. The name refers to the sonic purity it achieves thanks to exceptional linearity and infinitesimally low levels of noise and distortion.
The OLED in the xDSD Gryphon sports a SilentLine design. This ensures that there is no electrical noise to interfere with the audio signal.
The way its switches between settings has been engineered to ensure sonic transparency – FET-based switching is handled by a microcontroller, which only ‘wakes up’ when the user changes a setting, thus eradicating any sonically deleterious interference.
CyberSync is a software-driven volume control that operates in the analogue domain and the way it synchronises with any digital source to which the xDSD Gryphon is connected is very different.
It provides perfect volume synchronisation between the source and the DAC. It detects which operating system (OS) the DAC is connected to – iOS, Android, Windows, Mac OS or Linux – and instructs the source’s OS to bypass its software volume control. Whether volume is adjusted using the xDSD Gryphon’s rotary control or on the source device, CyberSync ensures the change is performed purely by the Gryphon’s superior analogue control chip, while also displaying the adjustment on the source device’s screen. Volume curves differ between operating systems and apps, but CyberSync ensures perfect synchronisation between the source device and the DAC every time.
