Manufacturer's Description — ifi Audio
The GO link 2 Max transforms your phone, laptop, or PC into a powerful high-resolution music source that reveals new layers of depth in your music.
Beautifully Balanced.
The GO link 2 Max is a USB-C dongle that transforms your phone, laptop, or PC into a powerful high-resolution audio source - allowing it to reveal new layers of depth in your music. Offering up to 241mW of output power and balanced architecture for improved dynamics, lower noise, and greater sonic control, it brings out the best in your headphones - not only improving what you have, but delivering more as your system evolves.
Elevated by Nexis.
The GO link 2 Max includes full compatibility with the iFi Nexis app. Firmware updates can be completed over-the-air in moments, without the need for downloading files or using desktop computers.
In addition, iFi Nexis compatibility has opened the door to new customisation options. The GO link 2 Max offers two digital filter options – hybrid and linear – allowing users to fine-tune the sound profile to their tastes in real-time.
*All iFi Nexis functionality – including firmware updates, filter selection and volume limiting – are additional features exclusive to Android devices.
Crystal Clarity.
The DAC chipsets used for conversion inside the GO link 2 Max benefit from “Quad DAC+” and “Time Domain Jitter Eliminator” technologies.
When combined with iFi’s dedicated GMT clock circuitry using a specialised crystal oscillator, this ensures ultra-low distortion, excellent clarity and impressive musical timing.
The GO link 2 Max features a silver-plated copper cable with individual polymer insulation, in a “twisted pair” design. This setup reduces inductance and capacitance - and aids with noise rejection.
Unlike typical audio cables, the GO link 2 Max isn’t affected by interference from nearby electrical sources.
Unlike its competitors, the GO link 2 Max uses hardware-based volume control, allowing you to adjust the volume without reducing quality.
Adjusting volume by software reduces volume by decreasing data sent to the DACs, stripping away all the details you’ve been searching for.
