Unlike the original Diablo which used cable connectivity from the source device, the Diablo 2 adds the latest generation of iFi's Bluetooth engine, complete with aptX Lossless support. The Diablo 2 is a similar size to the original and sports a fiery red chassis that's not only striking but also retro and futuristic-looking. One notably unique feature of the Diablo 2 is the grooved design with 22 grooves that aid thermal dissipation and double as fixing rails for the devilish "wings" supplied with the Diablo 2. These detachable rails act as a desk stand and can be positioned in different ways, allowing the Diablo 2 to be placed vertically or horizontally depending on your needs.On the front panel of the Diablo 2 you'll find the volume control knob with a newly-added volume lock, balanced 4.4mm xMEMS output, unbalanced 6.35mm headphone output, power mode switch, xMEMS switch and audio format/Bluetooth format LED light. The back panel features a balanced 4.4mm line input/output, S/PDIF 3.5mm coaxial/optical input, battery status LED light, USB-C 5V charging port, USB-C input, and Bluetooth pairing/input mode selector button. Lastly, on the underside of the Diablo 2 is the iEMatch switch which reduces the output level and has two switch settings: 4.4mm headphones and 6.35mm headphones. The Diablo 2 comes with a generous amount of accessories like headphone adapters, a USB-C cable, and more that allow you to use the DAC/Amp in multiple configurations and store it all in the included iTraveller carrying case.Better. Faster. Stronger.Able to drive notoriously power-hungry headphones and highly sensitive In-Ear Monitors (IEMs), the Diablo 2 DAC/Amp is built for high performance. The Diablo 2's headphone amplifier stage delivers incredible power, energy, and dynamics with a power output of 5,180mW/12.9V into 32 ohms and 611mW/19.2V into 600 ohms through its 4.4mm balanced output—that's more powerful than many desktop DAC/Amp setups! Three gain settings—Normal, Turbo, and Nitro—allow users to adjust the power mode to suit the drive requirements of the connected headphones or IEMs. Nitro for demanding headphones with 19.2V max output. Turbo for mid-sensitivity headphones. Normal for IEMs.IEM users will be pleased with the added iEMatch attenuation mode that removes potential background noise and increases the usable volume range when listening with super-sensitive IEMs. Volume is controlled by a high-quality analog potentiometer, which delivers superior sonic transparency compared to chip-based volume controls and can be locked in place to avoid accidental adjustment. Switch settings for iEMatch include 4.4mm headphones, off, and 6.35mm headphones.Next-Gen XMEMS TechnologyThis level of performance requires a higher voltage solution to drive it, so iFi has partnered with XMEMs to produce the Diablo-X and the Diablo 2—among the first devices to support this latest technology in the audiophile market! The xMEMS microspeaker technology uses the piezoelectric effect to create a paper-thin solid-state speaker. These micro-speakers offer great potential to push the boundaries of IEM and headphone performance.As xMEMS themselves say, “The inverse piezoelectric effect is created by applying electrical voltage to make the piezoMEMS contract or expand, converting electrical energy to mechanical energy. This energy excites an integrated silicon membrane to move air and generate acoustic sound waves…. xMEMS’ piezoMEMs actuators offer an increased range of movement enabling rich, loud audio”.NOTE: xMEMS technology and corresponding settings are only compatible with hi-fi devices that utilize this technology. Non-xMEMS headphones and IEMs are not meant to be used with this setting on the Diablo II and will have degraded sound quality if attempted. xMEMS has specific impedance requirements.Listen Anywhere. Wired or WirelesslyUnlike the previous Diablo models, the Diablo 2 DAC/Amplifier features Bluetooth connectivity, making it the world's first Lossless Bluetooth portable DAC/Amp. aptX Lossless is the first Bluetooth audio format capable of streaming CD-quality (16-bit/44.1kHz) audio 'losslessly', meaning it preserves the original data. It achieves bitrates of up to 1.2Mbps at CD-quality—that’s more than twice the maximum bitrate of aptX Adaptive and aptX HD, and roughly 20 percent higher than LDAC’s maximum figure.As well as being the first portable DAC to support aptX Lossless, the iDSD Diablo 2 is the first to include Bluetooth 5.4, the newest Bluetooth standard. This codec ensures the greatest wireless range and stability, the highest speed, and the lowest latency between your source device and the DAC. Users can connect up to eight paired Bluetooth devices in the Diablo 2's memory, making it easy to switch between your favorite wireless headphones, earbuds, smartphones, tablets, and much more.For those craving a wired listening experience, the Diablo 2's 4.4mm output and 6.3mm headphone socket provide a stable connection for high-quality headphones and IEMs. Users can connect a source device to the Diablo 2 using the USB-C port, as well as the 4.4mm fixed-line output on the back for high-end amps and powered speakers.Every hi-res audio format is supported at the highest quality, handling PCM data to 32-bit/768kHz and all levels of DSD to 22.579MHz (DSD512). Thanks to the Burr-Brown DAC chip’s four-channel True Native design, PCM and DSD take separate pathways – this enables DSD, as well as PCM, to remain ‘bit-perfect’ in its native form right through to analog conversion. MQA—the hi-res streaming technology used by Tidal's HiFi plus tier—is comprehensively supported with full MQA decoding/upsampling.Impressive Circuitry = Incredible PerformanceThe iDSD Diablo 2's digital stage incorporates a Burr-Brown DAC chipset that iFi uses exclusively, selected for its natural-sounding musicality and True Native architecture. Two of these chips are installed in a custom interleaved configuration enabling four pairs of differential stages to lower the noise floor, improve channel separation, and enhance the DAC's ability to resolve fine musical detail and micro-dynamics. The Diablo 2 also features a 32-bit, 16-core XMOS Cortex microcontroller that optimizes sound quality and unlocks the full potential of the Burr-Brown DAC chip. Extensive jitter eradication technologies are also applied, including the latest version of iFi’s GMT (Global Master Timing) femtosecond-precision clock and smart storage cache. This combination of technologies forms the basis of a proprietary ‘digital engine’ that is unique to iFi. Behind every incredible audio device is impressive circuitry. The Diablo 2 uses iFi's PureWave fully-balanced circuit design from input to output. PureWave achieves an exceptional level of sonic purity with linearity and low levels of noise and distortion. PureWave circuits are highly sophisticated in design and implementation, incorporating premium-quality components to enhance the audio quality and headphone amp power of the Diablo 2. A high-capacity 4800mAh lithium-ion battery is built into the Diablo 2 to provide long life between charges. The Diablo 2 can also be used when connected to the mains via the bundled iPower 2 – much more than just a mains charger, this AC/DC adapter contains active noise cancellation circuitry that benefits the Diablo 2’s sonic performance when powered by mains electricity.
