Welcome to the Club, excellent post, I fully and wholeheartedly agree with you!hello guys, didnt know their a Go Pod thread....i guess its time i share my overwhelming love about this TWS dac-amp here...and some pairing pics
right now its this:
these are harder to drive that it seem and since impedance is 16ohm, it dont get full 120mW amping push....but, and this is an important BUT...you can bypass impedance matching by hooking an 32ohm (or more) IEM, then put it in charging case and reconnect and then just hooking the 16ohm IEM to get full power...and now my Final A8000 is fully wake up, headroom open alot, dynamic is plenty lively, just wow.
Go Pod is the true audiophile solution for TWS hater like me....and IEMs collector.
Ldac connectivity is excellent, control is minimalist and intuitive, we have long range stability too, to the point i forget my phone outside, wonder in my home until 4 or 5 walls begin to block signal a bit...i couldn't believe it yet its true.
Once you get this, all TWS buds seem absurd toys. and i own Final ZE8000, Hifiman Svanar wireless, UM Ufree etc....all taking dust now. for good. Cause hey, i have infinite number of TOTL TWS eargasm now!
The GO Pod is the absolute best device of its kind!
I just wish iFi Audio would consider adding a toggle switch for the auto-detection of the Impedance. Something like, turn auto-detection OFF and then two text boxes to appear, so that the users could type in the Impedance and Sensitivity of their IEMs. If left as is, so this toggle switch to ON, the auto-detection could still happen.
