iFi is back with yet another DAC. 2023 saw the release of a glut its portable DACs, including the five-star iFi Go Link, the excellent iFi hip-dac 3 and the high-end iFi iDSD Diablo 2 headphone amp/DAC combo. Despite its latest rather crowded stable of portable units, the British-based company has revealed another in 2024: the iFi Go Bar Kensei.
iFi bills the Kensei as the "world's first ultraportable DAC with K2HD technology". K2HD is essentially a protocol developed to boost sonic performance, and works "to restore music to the same quality as the original master, reviving it with the rich, natural harmonics lost during digitalisation". This ensures, says iFi, that "every note resonates with depth and clarity".
The new DAC takes the "Kensei" part of its name from the honorary title afforded to the finest, deadliest Japanese warriors who had proved their swordsmanship skills in combat. The Kensei supports files up to 384kHz, DSD256 and even MQA, while built-in "iEMatch" technology matches the output levels for your headphones automatically.
Thanks to the Kensei's enhanced power and clock circuitry, iFi promises that the compact DAC is capable of producing a wide, open soundstage alongside plenty of detail and a full, robust bass response. If you want to get your music sounding just how you like it, the Go Bar Kensei provides a choice of four digital filter options in addition to two analogue processing modes: bass-boosting "XBass" and the more spacious "XSpace" profile.
The iFi Go Bar Kensei portable DAC is available now for £449 / €449 / $449 / AU$449.
