Our take
This is a fine DAC from iFi Audio that takes the quality of portable Bluetooth connectivity to a new level, the soundstage is nicely separated with high, mid and low clearly defined and no audible harshness. A pleasing neutral/ warm sound signature!
Product details
iFi Audio GO Blu
The iFi Audio GO Blu is an extremely handy portable DAC that you can easily take anywhere due to its small size and weight of only 26 grams (!). Simply connect your wired premium headphones via the single-ended 3.5mm or the 4.4mm balanced Pentaconn connector and now also control them with a smartphone without a headphone connection via Bluetooth HD. The GO Blu supports Bluetooth 5.1 aptX, aptX LL, aptX Adaptive, aptX HD, LDAC, AAC, SBC and HWA/LHDC.
High-res sound quality
In addition to Bluetooth, you can also send music via the USB-C port with a maximum resolution of 24 bit and 96 kHz. The battery has enough capacity to enjoy music in high-res music quality for up to 10 hours. Volume control is analog for the best possible sound quality without digital compression. For this, the manufacturer has used a conventional volume knob inspired by Swiss Chronograph design & implementation.
High-quality design
Despite its compact size, the GO Blu features high-quality separate Bluetooth, DAC and twin-mono Direct Drive S-Balanced amplifier circuitry. This GO Blu delivers a significantly higher sound quality than the many on-chip solutions on the market. The manufacturer has also added XBass for a better layer with open-back headphones and XSpace for even more spaciousness in music reproduction with in-ear headphones. Thanks to the built-in auto-gain, the iFi Audio GO Blu automatically adapts to the type of headphones used.
