Announced on May 15, 2025, at High End Munich, the iFi GO Pod Air redefines portable audio for discerning music lovers. This innovative Bluetooth adapter transforms your wired in-ear monitors (IEMs) into high-resolution wireless earbuds, delivering audiophile-grade sound in a compact, travel-friendly package. Priced at $249, the GO Pod Air is lighter, more affordable, and just as powerful as its predecessor, making it a must-have for audiophiles who refuse to compromise on sound quality while on the move.

Unmatched Sound Quality with Hi-Fi Architecture

The iFi GO Pod Air breaks the mold of traditional Bluetooth earbuds by employing a true Hi-Fi architecture. Unlike typical wireless earphones that rely on a single chip for connectivity, conversion, and amplification, each GO Pod Air features a premium Qualcomm QCC514x Bluetooth chip, a Cirrus Logic MasterHIFI DAC, and a balanced amplification stage. This separation ensures pristine audio with minimal distortion and a wide dynamic range, supporting high-resolution audio up to 24-bit/96kHz. Whether you’re streaming FLAC files or enjoying Spotify, the GO Pod Air delivers a rich, engaging soundstage that rivals wired setups.

Seamless Compatibility for All IEMs

The GO Pod Air is designed for maximum compatibility. It comes with 2-pin and MMCX ear loops as standard, with optional T2, A2DC, and Pentaconn connectors available separately, ensuring your favorite IEMs—whether from 64 Audio, Meze, or Symphonium—can go wireless. Its intelligent impedance matching (16, 32, or 64 ohms) automatically adjusts to your IEMs’ requirements, eliminating manual setup. Simply connect your IEMs, place the pods in their charging case, and the system optimizes performance instantly. This versatility makes the GO Pod Air ideal for audiophiles with diverse IEM collections.

Comprehensive Codec Support

Unlike many Bluetooth earbuds that limit codec options, the iFi GO Pod Air supports a full suite of high-resolution codecs, including SBC, AAC, aptX (Classic, HD, Adaptive), LDAC, and LHDC/HWA. For Android users with Snapdragon Sound, LDAC delivers up to 990kbps, while other devices support up to 660kbps. This ensures compatibility with any smartphone, tablet, or hi-res player, delivering uncompromised audio fidelity regardless of your source device.

Designed for Work and Play

The GO Pod Air is more than just a music accessory—it’s a versatile companion for work and adventure. Each pod features intuitive touch controls for managing calls, music playback, volume, and voice assistants like Siri or Google Assistant. Dual microphones with Qualcomm’s cVc noise suppression technology ensure crystal-clear calls, even in noisy environments. With an IPX5 rating, the pods are water- and sweat-resistant, perfect for workouts, commutes, or rainy days. The ability to disable touch controls prevents accidental inputs during active use, a thoughtful feature for runners or gym-goers.

Portable and Long-Lasting

Weighing just 10 grams per pod and paired with a charging case that’s 40% lighter and 20% smaller than the original GO Pod, the GO Pod Air is built for portability. It offers 7 hours of playback on a single charge, with the case extending this to 15 hours—enough for a full day of use, from morning commutes to evening flights. The lightweight design ensures comfort during extended listening sessions, making it a go-to for travelers and audiophiles alike.

Why Choose the iFi GO Pod Air?

  • Audiophile-Grade Sound: Hi-Fi circuitry with Cirrus Logic DAC and balanced amplification for superior audio.
  • Universal Compatibility: Supports 2-pin, MMCX, and optional T2, A2DC, and Pentaconn connectors with auto impedance matching.
  • Robust Codec Support: SBC, AAC, aptX, LDAC, and LHDC/HWA for high-res streaming on any device.
  • All-Day Versatility: 7-hour battery life, 15 hours with case, IPX5 rating, and intuitive touch controls.
  • Compact Design: 10-gram pods and a lighter, smaller case for ultimate portability.

At $249, the iFi GO Pod Air offers premium wireless performance at a competitive price, making it an excellent value for audiophiles seeking freedom without sacrificing sound quality.
