The iDSD Phantom Brilliantly Unites a Reference-Class DAC, Ultra-res Streamer, and a Powerful Headphone Amp Into One Device, a Triad of Innovation

• Flagship all-in-one streamer, DAC, and headphone amp
• DSD remastering up to DSD2048
• Quad-stack DAC in an interleaved configuration
• Real-time tube or solid-state circuit switching
• JVCKENWOOD's K2HD Technology recovers depth and nuance of master recordings

Vanish Into the Music

Step into a world where the boundaries between you and your music simply disappear. A triumph of form and function, the iDSD Phantom encapsulates a powerful triad born from decades of innovation. 

Beneath its exterior lies professional-grade technologies that compel the listener to become the master of their music: DSD Remastering up to DSD2048 and K2HD technology offer a level of sonic control unattainable outside of the world's finest mastering studios. XBass Pro, XSpace Pro, digital filters and real-time circuitry switching act as the final brushstrokes on your sonic canvas. 

Three Voices. One Phantom.

The Phantom's user-switchable circuitry stages let you choose between three distinct sonic characters, each a different way to disappear into the music. 

Solid-State: discrete J-FET design for lightning-fast distortion-free precision.

Tube: NOS, hand-matched GE5670 valves for warmth and liquid smoothness.

Tube+: lowered loop-gain for an enhanced 2nd harmonic, adding body and presence.

Fidelity-Driven Design

At the heart of the PHANTOM are four Burr-Brown DACs in a hybrid multi-bit configuration, drawing inspiration from our long-standing experience with the legendary multi-bit Philips TDA1541A. 

First introduced in the Pro iDSD, this interleaved design captures the magic and impact of the iconic multi-bit chipset, but with superior low-level linearity for breathtaking detail.

The World Premiere of DSD2048

The PHANTOM's Remastering Engine brings studio-grade up conversion to your home - now, for the first time, reaching the unprecedented clarity of DSD2048. 

In Normal mode, native DSD signals pass directly to the DAC while PCM signals go through a user-selected digital filter. Switch to Remastered mode for up conversion to DSD512, DSD1024, or the new pinnacle - DSD2048. DSD Remastering deepens resolution and minimizes distortion, unlocking the level of fidelity once reserved for the world's most prestigious mastering suites.

Additional Features

Cue Up Qobuz
The Phantom features iFi's ultra-res 768kHz/DSD512 streaming engine, based around a new OS, meaning expanded native support, including Qobuz Connect.

Prodigious Power
The Phantom delivers monumental amplification, rivaling flagship headphone amps, to unlock the full dynamic range of the most demanding headphones.

Galvanically Isolated
The S/PDIF, AES/EBU, and Ethernet inputs are galvanically isolated, meaning there is physical separation between the source device and Phantom. This isolation eliminates electrical noise and digital distortion. 

Studio-Inspired Restoration
JVCKENWOOD's K2HD Technology restores the depth, nuance, and musicality of the original performance by reintroducing harmonic content lost during the production process. 

Feel the Thunder
XBass Pro is iFi's analog variable shelving EQ that boosts low frequencies without clouding the midrange.

Embrace the XSpace
XSpace Pro is iFi's advanced evolution of cross feed technology that simulates the spaciousness of speaker playback while preserving clarity and detail.
