However, even the highest-spec devices are ruled by disruptive background noise and distortion.
Now there’s one device to rule them all.
With USB, S/PDIF and Bluetooth connections, the nano iONE connects to everything.
And with its Burr-Brown chipset producing True Native® sound, you can stream Spotify, listen to your TV, home stereo system and mobile devices in natural hi-res audio.
Connect the iONE to your console you’ll feel every arrow as it zips past your head. Feel the rush of adrenalin as cars flash by at full throttle.
It may fit into the palm of your hand, but don’t let that fool you.
The nano iONE produces sensational sound separation and adds musicality and warmth to your audio, whatever you’re listening to.
Audiophile. Tele addict. Movie buff or gamer supreme, whatever your passion, the nano iONE steps in and steps up your audio quality.
The nano iONE includes:
Hear music as the artist intended. The Burr-Brown True Native® chipset means file formats remain unchanged for the truest sound.
Connect the RCAs to an A/V or headphone amp. However you prefer to connect your system, the iOne has it covered, whether its via Bluetooth, USB or S/PDIF (optical/coaxial).
CD-like quality on Bluetooth across all platforms – using aptX or AAC® encoding. aptX® is for Windows, Mac and Android devices. AAC is for iOS devices.
Everyone is able to enjoy the highest quality wireless playback.
Quiet! Active Noise Cancellation+ (ANC) at work!
Exceptionally quiet power. The measured noise floor is 100x quieter than the Common Noise Filter.
A galvanically isolated S/PDIF output means that electrical circuits are separated to eliminate stray elements - a signal can pass but nothing else. Interference-free audio.
And with added Reclock® and Regenerate® our fastidious attention to sound quality never waivers.
AMR’s Global Master Timing (GMT)/ Memory Buffer System represents a total ‘out of the box’ systematic digital solution that solves the digital S/PDIF jitter once and for all. The Intelligent Memory System holds a large number of complete audio samples, so it may completely absorb a large amount of variation (jitter and drift) in the incoming signal, while still sending out data at a fixed and precise clock rate, regardless of variations in the incoming clock.

Whether you use Nvidia Shield, Google Chromecast or a 4K television, hook your system up to a gaming console such as the XBox One, Playstation 4 or simple enjoy music through your smartphone, tablet or computer, the iOne is the one for you. Add it to your audiophile rig to push the boundaries of high-quality sound to a whole new level.
At iFi we believe that high quality sound is a way of life. The nano iOne was created for both audiophiles and those who yearn for better sound quality from their existing home systems.
Crystal clear sound and multiple inputs in a tiny package. This is what I’ve been looking for a while to use in my PC gaming setup. PC is my primary gaming platform, but I also have a PS4 for a few games a year I’ll play on that. Up until now I was an ifi micro ican se as my headphone amp. That thing is great with its bass boost and soundstage widening features. The problem is it really only has one method of input it can work with. This meant that if I wanted to use something other than my PC I would have to unplug my PC from the amp and plug my monitor’s analog out into the amp. With this guy I use the USB in for my PC and the optical in from my PS4 Pro. This dac/amp combo makes headphones sound amazing. Currently my headphones are philips fidelio x2s and it sounds amazing.
Using the iOne as an interface converter gave a significant increase in quality. The scene was focused and became transparent, the bass was clearer, the vocals literally came to life. The sound picture retained its softness and nobility, but it was supplemented with many details – realism and naturalness had increased.
You can use this device with absolutely everything you can imagine, stereo and home systems, 4K TVs, gaming consoles, tablets, smartphones and PCs. You get this flexibility in almost pocket size. The nano iOne was created for both audiophiles and those who yearn for better sound quality from their existing home systems. I can’t recommend this DAC enough!
Our expectations of the iOne is not deceived. The sound is quite audiophile and it is great that Bluetooth made it possible to get sound of ‘pocket’ music on a serious system.
Pro: The quality of the built-in DAC, compactness, the claimed combination of functions.
