Studio-Grade Sound Shaping on the Move:The iFi iDSD Valkyrie blends transportable convenience with desktop-tier audio processing. Built for listeners who demand complete authority over their acoustic signature, the unit incorporates studio-inspired adjustment tools into an anodised aluminum chassis. Positioned at the top of the iFi range, this flagship digital front end delivers clean, uncoloured signal paths whether connected to a dedicated desktop system or moved between listening setups. As an exceptionally capable entry among modern DAC's, it bridges the gap between strictly stationary hi-fi components and high-output portables.Precision Multi-Bit Conversion for Pure Audio Clarity:At the heart of the iFi iDSD Valkyrie sits a customized quad Burr-Brown digital-to-analogue converter operating in a hybrid multi-bit configuration. This architecture maintains strict signal linearity while minimising distortion, ensuring clean resolution for high-resolution formats up to 768kHz PCM and DSD1024. Listeners gain access to tailored signal controls, including DSD Remastering via an onboard FPGA processor and K2HD harmonic detail restoration. Combined with six selectable digital filters and pure analogue processing modes like XBass II, XPresence, and XSpace, the system lets you fine-tune depth, vocal presence, and bass response to match specific headphone characteristics.Massive Output Power with High-Resolution Wireless Freedom:To drive demanding planar magnetic headphones and sensitive in-ear monitors alike, the iFi iDSD Valkyrie provides up to 5,700mW of peak output power. This high dynamic headroom ensures sudden audio transients remain sharp and distortion-free across all listening levels. Wireless connectivity is handled via Bluetooth 5.4 with aptX Lossless and LDAC support, delivering bit-perfect CD-quality streaming from modern sources. Equipped with an internal battery supplying up to 18 hours of continuous operation, this high-performance unit functions effortlessly as a standalone Headphone Amplifiers solution w/DAC capability.Authorized Dealer:We are an authorized dealer for iFi.
