Same channel balance issues as all the other similar devices?

 

[tcellguy]

This looks like the digital potentiometer from the gryphon?

I can see the green potiometer, is there any plan to use a step attenuator in future design.

The green alps is known for channel imbalance at low volumes.

Did the sound signature go for brute force again or did it add some finesse this time?

This looks a bit of a Beast, and I mean that in a good way.

Does it have EQ via Bluetooth app control?

@iFi audio what is the output impedance in IEMatch mode and non-IEMatch mode?

If the volume control using a potentiometer ? The usual channel imbalance issues as with all iDSDs in the past ?

Or using a volume chip like Neo iDSD for perfect channel balance?

Does this have the easter egg of 4.4mm input thanks

@iFi audio Can you clarify whether the stated 5.18W power specification is a standard RMS power measurement, or whether this figure was attained using a different method of testing?

And this ladies and gentleman is the million dollar question, if this device is a solid 1w of power in real terms I'd be happy, that is a lot of power on the go, I just don't like it being pitched as something it's not, fingers crossed this is closer to it's rated specs.

Yes it's in the user manual:

Interesting machine.

It has picked up many of the interesting features of the Gryphon, which make it quite flexible.

The design is also to my taste.

Can you tell me if it supports MQA via optical/spdif input (like the Gryphon)?

I want it so bad, paired with MR or Caldera
