Product details

The NEO iDSD 2 is a headphone amplifier and DAC, and is equipped with Bluetooth 5.4 to boot. If you want to use the NEO iDSD 2 as a pure DAC, connect it to a separate integrated amplifier or preamplifier via the fixed-level analogue output. Or treat it as a variable output DAC/preamp, in which case it is the ideal complement to a power amp or active speakers. If you're a headphone user, you'll love the NEO iDSD 2 with its superb amplifier stage to create a fabulous head-fi system. Do you love not only your music, but movies and games? The NEO iDSD will greatly enhance your movie and gaming experience. Combine the NEO iDSD with the PS4 or Xbox One X for the ultimate gaming experience. With its audiophile-grade components, PureWave balanced circuitry with vanishingly low noise and distortion levels, state-of-the-art Bluetooth 5.4 and MQA support, the NEO iDSD 2 is the ultimate in Hi-Res playback. The Burr-Brown DAC chipset is the powerful engine of the NEO iDSD. It is perfectly supported by the 16-core XMOS microcontroller, which processes the data via USB and S/PDIF digital inputs. Depending on the available space, you can set up the NEO iDSD horizontally or vertically. The display adjusts to the orientation. A stand is included in the scope of delivery to ensure that the unit also stands securely vertically. A remote control is also included so that the NEO iDSD 2 can be operated comfortably from a distance. The headphone amplifier stage with 6.3 mm and 4.4 mm headphone outputs maintains a harmonious balance between sonic power and relaxation - no matter what it is designed to drive. From highly sensitive in-ear earphones to power-hungry planar headphones - they all drive with flying colours.
