Transform your phone, laptop, or PC into a powerful high-resolution audio source with the iFi GO link 2 Max. Designed to reveal new layers of depth, detail, and dynamics in your music, this compact USB-C dongle DAC combines dual ESS Sabre DAC chips in a balanced architecture to deliver improved dynamics, lower noise, and greater sonic control. With up to 241mW of output power through its 4.4mm balanced headphone output, the GO link 2 Max is built to get the most from your headphones today while supporting future system upgrades.
Dramatically Dynamic
The GO link 2 Max brings music to life with enhanced impact and expression. Dynamic Range Enhancement (DRE) technology unlocks up to 6 dB of additional dynamic range, expanding the difference between the quietest and loudest passages for a more engaging listening experience. Whether you're enjoying delicate acoustic recordings or powerful modern productions, every detail is presented with greater contrast and energy.
Distortion, Defeated
Advanced enhancements within the DAC chipset reduce total harmonic distortion by over 50% compared to the previous generation. By minimizing unwanted 2nd and 3rd harmonics, the GO link 2 Max delivers cleaner, purer sound with improved clarity and accuracy, allowing your music to be heard as intended.
Balanced Performance for Every Listener
Dual ESS DAC chips form a balanced circuit that improves overall performance and sonic control. In addition to the 4.4mm balanced output, iFi's S-Balanced technology enhances the 3.5mm headphone output by cutting crosstalk between channels in half. The result is cleaner channel separation, reduced interference, and improved performance with a wide range of headphones.
Crystal-Clear Audio
The GO link 2 Max combines advanced DAC technologies with iFi's dedicated GMT clock circuitry and specialized crystal oscillator to achieve ultralow distortion, exceptional clarity, and precise musical timing. A silver-plated copper cable with individual polymer insulation and twisted-pair construction further improves signal purity while helping reject noise and interference from nearby electrical sources.
Nexis Customization and Updates
Compatible with the iFi Nexis mobile app, the GO link 2 Max allows Android users to perform over-the-air firmware updates and customize their listening experience. Users can choose between hybrid and linear digital filter options and access additional features including volume limiting, all without connecting to a computer.
Precise Hardware Volume Control
Unlike software-based volume controls that reduce audio quality by limiting digital data, the GO link 2 Max uses hardware-based volume control to preserve detail and maintain sound quality across the entire volume range.
