iFi Audio xDSD Gryphon Ultra-Res Portable DAC and Headphone Amplifier
Portable DAC/amps tend to be compromised because they focus on a great digital OR a great analogue section. But not both. The xDSD Gryphon is different. Just like its mythical namesake, it is two beasts in one. From the Ultra-Res digital stage using the Burr-Brown MultiBit at the core to the PureWave analogue power section pumping out 1,000mW and other things in-between, it takes serious headphones to tame the Gryphon.
Features:
- Ultra-resolution portable DAC and high-power headphone amplier
- State-of-the-Art, Hi-Res wireless/wired audio support
- 3 dedicated stages, Bluetooth, DAC and amplifier, all individually optimised for max performance

Tailored to your ears
XSpace adds back the cavernous sound stage of recordings.
XBass II reinstates the missing bass from open-backed headphones or for recordings that you hanker for bass slam. Under XBass II you can select ‘Bass’ and/or ‘Presence’ so that the low and mid-bass respectively, are correctly added back into your favourite recording.
