Product Description
The One you need
Not sure what a DAC is but know you want better sound quality for your music, movies, games, podcasts and YouTube guilty pleasures?, Then, the new iFi Uno is for you. Imagine the difference in quality from a standard TV to an 8K Ultra HD TV — but in sound! This is the difference an external DAC makes to your music.
The One you want
Small enough to fit into the palm of your hand, the iFi Uno's curvy case is made from tough,
mineral-filled polymer. Connect the iFi Uno via the USB-C input to your Windows PC or Apple Mac. It needs no power source as it receives both power and audio data from the source it is connected to.
Work. Chill. Play.
One simple device. Three unique modes that generate subtle differences to your listening experience.
- Music mode unlocks detailed and engaging sound from all your favourite artists. Listen while you work.
- Movie mode enhances dialogue clarity when you’re streaming films and must-watch TV shows. Never miss a moment.
- Game mode makes low-level sound effects crystal-clear. Always hear your enemies coming and storms brewing.
Uno, dos, hi-res
The iFi Uno supports high-resolution audio formats, including PCM 32bit/384kHz, native DSD256, and MQA.
- PCM: The format used in CDs, DVDs, and Blu-rays, offering superior quality compared to MP3.
- DSD: A high-quality audio format exceeding CD quality. Fully native means the recording remains unaltered. The iFi Uno supports up to DSD256.
- MQA: Master Quality Authenticated allows streaming the original master recording. The Uno is MQA-ready—simply connect to Tidal Masters to enjoy studio-quality sound.
DAC’s the ticket
The iFi Uno leverages a decade of expertise and its advanced DAC chip to deliver high-end features:
- Adjustable analogue gain with Dynamic Range Enhancement (DRE).
- Technologies to minimise Total Harmonic Distortion (THD) and crosstalk.
- A selection of digital filters, adjustable via front-panel buttons for personalised sound tuning.
- Whether you use the preset modes or fine-tune further, the iFi Uno ensures clearer audio, reduced interference, and an enhanced entertainment experience.
Awesome analogue
The Uno’s analogue circuitry is just as vital to the supercharged sound quality it provides as its digital tech. The headphone amp feeds a 3.5mm socket at the front, incorporating iFi’s S-Balanced configuration to reduce noise and crosstalk.
Most DACs still use digital volume control – ours is analogue. Why is this special? When you reduce the volume on other DACs you remove data from the song or soundtrack. With analogue volume control, you reduce the volume whilst maintaining the quality.
