iFi Audio has officially unveiled its flagship portable digital-to-analog converter (DAC), the iDSD Valkyrie, designed for audiophiles who crave more than just power and precision—they seek the ability to shape the emotional landscape of their music.

Combining state-of-the-art technology with exceptional sonic customization, the iDSD Valkyrie integrates K2HD Technology, DSD Remastering, six digital filters, and iFi’s signature analog processing to create a transformative listening experience. With a quad-DAC architecture capable of peak outputs reaching 5,700mW and an impressive battery life of 18 hours, the Valkyrie stands unparalleled in the portable audio market.

DSD Remastering algorithm

At the heart of the Valkyrie is a bespoke DSD Remastering algorithm powered by a custom-coded FPGA, reminiscent of tools used in professional mastering studios. This cutting-edge technology enhances audio resolution while reducing distortion, promising a listening experience that rivals professionally remastered recordings.

Six digital filters

Beyond its technical prowess, the Valkyrie offers features to further personalize your auditory experience. Users can select from six digital filters and engage in the exclusive analog processing modes: XBass II, XPresence, and XSpace. Whether it’s reinstating deep bass, enhancing midrange presence, or restoring an expansive soundstage, the Valkyrie caters to every listener’s preference.

Burr-Brown DACs

The design of the Valkyrie reflects its mythical name, with four Burr-Brown DACs arranged in a hybrid multi-bit configuration that draws from the legacy of the revered Philips TDA1541A chipset. This configuration ensures breathtaking detail and minimizes crosstalk through dedicated isolation of the analog path from digital components.

For those who embrace wireless technology, the Valkyrie incorporates Qualcomm’s flagship QCC518x chipset, supporting aptX Lossless codec for CD-quality audio streaming. It also accommodates high-resolution Bluetooth playback up to 96kHz/24-bit.

With the iDSD Valkyrie, iFi Audio invites users to become their own mastering engineers, achieving their personal sonic Valhalla in the realm of portable sound.
