Vanish Into The Music

The iDSD PHANTOM unites a reference-class DAC, ultra-res streamer and a powerful head amp into one device – a trinity of iFi innovation, engineered for complete musical immersion.

Features

• Flagship All-In-One Streamer/DAC/Head Amp
• DSD Remastering up to DSD2048
• Real-Time Tube or Solid-State Circuit Switching
• XBass Pro XSpace Pro Analogue Processing
• JVCKENWOOD’s K2HD Technology

The World Premiere of DSD2048

For the first time, iFi’s Crysopeia FPGA engine brings DSD2048 Remastering to the comfort of your home, drawing on technology used in Japan’s mastering studios. Four Burr-Brown DSD1793s operate in a custom interleaved configuration for native decoding of signals up to DSD2048, unlocking exceptional low-level detail for playback that rivals a professionally remastered recording.

Three Voices. One PHANTOM

The PHANTOM delivers the experience of three devices in one. Move between Solid-State mode, where discrete J-FETs deliver lightning-fast precision; Tube mode, where hand-matched NOS GE5670s provide liquid smoothness; and Tube+, which pushes the tube character for golden-era warmth. Pair with the PHANTOM’s prodigious 7,747mW peak output to craft the ideal synergy with your favorite cans.

Queue up Qobuz

Introducing iFi’s latest ultra-resolution streaming engine. The iDSD PHANTOM opens the door to Qobuz Connect, alongside Tidal Connect, Spotify Connect, AirPlay 2, and more. This evolution also brings enhanced stability, smoother radio performance, and a more intuitive UI with deeper customisation. With the new and updated Nexis app, it’s now easier than ever to connect and queue music from anywhere in your home.

Studio-Inspired Restoration

In collaboration with JVCKENWOOD, the PHANTOM incorporates K2 and K2HD Technology². By restoring harmonic content lost during production or digital encoding, it revives the musicality of the original performance.

The Final Brushstrokes

XBass Pro is iFi’s analogue shelving EQ, available in 10, 20, and 40Hz options. It lifts low frequencies without clouding the midrange. XSpace Pro goes far beyond crossfeed, pushing the music outside your head without sacrificing soundstage – just like speaker playback. Use the 30-, 60-, and 90-degree settings to find the most natural presentation for your setup. Then use the array of digital filters to perfect the time-domain response.

Mastered from the Ground Up

A re-designed, constant impedance negative feedback system ensures XBass Pro, XSpace Pro, and DSD Remastering operate in perfect harmony. A dedicated common-mode servo smooths XBass’ on/off transitions and maintains LF consistency at high levels. We also fine-tuned the tubes’ supply voltage to enhance overall linearity in the audio output.

A True All-In-One System

Leveraging the full power of the iDSD PHANTOM’s All-In-One design, headphone listeners can enjoy the experience of a complete high-end system in a single desktop device.

A Studio-Grade Experience

Pair your bookshelf speakers or studio monitors with the iDSD PHANTOM to empower your workstation and capture the essence of the prestigious studios that inspired its class-leading design.
