NEO iDSD 3 Takes The Purist Design of iFi's Midrange Home Series Even Further, Combining Re-Engineered Hardware for Greater Fidelity with Advanced Software
Rewired for Realism
iFi has upgraded the internals of the NEO iDSD 3 to bring the most accurate sounding playback experience to date, while retaining the innate musicality it's known for. This includes new operational amplifiers with 50% lower distortion, upgraded polymer capacitors for 50% less power supply ripple, and WIMA MKS2 series caps for lower distortion and smoother HF.
Restoring the Source Code
Digital masters often miss the warmth and richness of their analog routes, leaving you with sound that's cold and lifeless. JVCKENWOOD’s K2HD Technology extends high frequencies to restore natural harmonics, to bring back the depth, nuance, and musicality of the original performance.
For those who prefer this restoration without altering the song's sample rate, 'K2' mode provides a similar effect while preserving the native resolution.
The Power Within
With the Diablo 2's amplification stage at its core, the NEO iDSD 3 delivers infernal power to your headphone setup.
Unplugged from Limits
The NEO iDSD 2 made history as the world's first DAC to support the aptX Lossless codec, delivering true CD-quality audio over Bluetooth with zero data loss. The NEO iDSD 3 continues to uphold class-leading Bluetooth performance, supporting aptX Lossless, LDAC, LHDC, and more to ensure it remains at the pinnacle of wireless sound.
Two Pathways to Perfection
The NEO iDSD 3 uses a custom DAC stage built around a Burr-Brown chipset, hand-picked by us for its natural musicality. Its distinctive architecture handles PCM and DSD via separate pathways, preserving a bit-perfect signal all the way through to analogue conversion. With PCM input, the six most significant bits are processed in true multi-bit fashion, for natural dynamics and slam. The rest are handled via delta- sigma processing for exceptional low-level linearity.

Due to recent changes in U.S. trade regulations, additional tariffs are being imposed on products manufactured in China and imported into the United States. As many of our audio products are made in China, orders shipped to U.S. addresses may be subject to an added tariff charge at checkout, reflected as a "U.S. Import Tariff Surcharge". Please note that this surcharge amount is determined by U.S. import policies and may vary significantly depending on product categories and any future policy adjustments. These charges are necessary to ensure compliance with U.S. customs requirements and to allow us to continue serving our U.S. customers reliably. We strongly encourage you to review the total cost at checkout before placing your order.
This surcharge is temporary but necessary during this period of significantly increased operational pressure as a result of the ongoing geo‑political situation in the Middle East.
Orders shipped to Gulf Cooperation Council (GCC), Africa, US and EU regions may be subject to an added surcharge at checkout, reflected as a "Temporary Emergency Situational Surcharge". Please note that this surcharge amount is determined by our freight partners, and may subject to adjustments according to situational updates.
