iFi SPOILER ALERT

Are you wondering what the guys at iFi are currently busy with?

Here's a hint:

It has a tube and maybe best described as the Swiss Army Knife of Audio. Every system needs one. It is a tube buffer+ for digital sources and a tube preamp for analogue systems. It sonically enhances VIRTUALLY every analogue OR digital product. Wicked!

Want to know more? Stay tuned, more some time soon..

In layman terms, it's like a tube EQ setting. Have this linked up in your audio chain and this device will inject "tube like" sound into the system.

Eg. DAC -> iFi iTube -> AMP -> Headphone

 

[darkarn]

Ok wait, if I using tube amp liao, will this still be needed? :X

 

[RazorLotus]

No lol. That would be double amping

 

[alamakazim]

Can lah... is a buffer

MAybe sound too rich and tube

Thanks, I thought that now my desktop setup is ok already, I should focus on the headphones (need something with detachable cables anyway) => That's why I selling my current audio gear off

And I don't think I can afford any iFi stuff yet (but will still like to play with them when got time...)

The iTube is more for people who already have a complete system and looking to "tweaking" the sound so focus on other components first and if your backside still itchy can drop by our store and we can scratch scratch for you.

As alamakazim mentioned, this tube buffer can still be added. The objective is to achieve a certain sound and the tube system that you already have may not have so best to audition them first.

No worries, the iTube is still in production state and we have yet to have any confirm shipment at the moment so your wallet is safe......



For now.

We shall see
