iFi Audio iDSD Phantom Flagship Reference DAC, Streamer, Amp, & Preamp

The iFi Audio iDSD Phantom is iFi's reference-class flagship — a single-chassis system that replaces your DAC, streamer, headphone amplifier, and preamp without compromise. Built from the ground up as a generational leap beyond the Pro iDSD, it delivers uncompromising performance across every function. What the iDSD Phantom Does Most audiophile setups require separate boxes for streaming, conversion, amplification, and preamp duties. The Phantom consolidates all four into one premium component — eliminating cables, reducing noise, and simplifying your system without any sonic compromise. Reference DAC Quad-stack Burr-Brown DAC architecture. DSD remastering up to DSD2048 via iFi's proprietary Chrysopoeia FPGA engine. Seven selectable digital filters. K2HD Technology for hi-res upscaling. Ultra-Resolution Streamer Qobuz Connect, TIDAL Connect, Spotify Connect, AirPlay 2, and Roon Ready. Supports PCM up to 768kHz and native DSD512. Wi-Fi and Ethernet dual network connectivity. Flagship Headphone Amplifier 7,747mW maximum output power. Drives everything from sensitive IEMs to demanding planar magnetics. Six headphone output configurations including balanced 4.4mm and XLR. Real-time switching between Solid State, Tube, and Tube+ modes. Reference Preamp Full preamp functionality for powered speakers or power amplifiers. Balanced XLR and RCA outputs. Precision volume control with app integration. Tube/Solid-State Switching — Two Amplifiers in One One of the Phantom's most distinctive features is real-time voicing between three amplifier characters: Solid State — fast, highly resolved, technically precise Tube — warm, smooth, NOS-inspired analog character Tube+ — maximum harmonic richness for an immersive, musical presentation Switch between them instantly via the front panel or the iFi app — no rebooting, no waiting.

The Phantom is purpose-built for the serious desktop listener who wants one reference-class component at the center of their system. If you're running a flagship IEM like the Noble Kronos or a demanding planar like the DCA STEALTH or HIFIMAN Arya Organic, and you want a source component that keeps nothing from them — this is it. It also doubles as a world-class preamp for powered speakers, making it the last source component you'll ever need to buy.
