I have two related questions. Both have been asked before separately, but if there were replies, I missed them:

1) Is their or will there be a firmware upgrade to the nano idsd to make it MQA compatible?

2) does ifi offer a trade-in program for upgrading to a nano iDSD Black Label?

Thanks.

1. We're looking into a possibility of our older equipment to be MQA viable.
2. In short: no.

Cheers,
iFi Team

I am using my ifi Nano BL since 2 weeks. Amazing DAC/AMP for it's price. It handles my DT990 Edition 250 ohm without any problems.
The sound is slightly warm, punchy and really well controlled. I compared it to NuPrime uDSD and it provides much smoother sound without losing detail comparing to uDSD.

@bachankas, thank you for your commentary!

I have only one question - just for curiosity. Why provided cable is blue? Couldn't you include black one?

We like blue

On a more serious note, this is the USB3.0 standard colour scheme and that's why we stick to it.

Quite an impressive little unit.

Small form, lots of power and low floor noise.

I expected that answer and understand
Can someone describe differences in sound between Filter Settings? On my DD990 Edition 250 Ohm I head no difference, as well as my MA750 - I do not have sensitive enough headphones.

Just got the nano BL. FW that came with was 5.2. When I played any music including MQA via MacBook Air / Tidal desktop application (All 3 checks enabled beside DAC setting), LED was yellowish. Updated the FW to 5.3C RC2, now LED is all White with very faint hint of blue for any music including MQA I tried. Even when I try YouTube video, the LED colour won't change. Is that normal?

How do I know the current battery power level?

Edit: i tried the nano with my speakers set up. I have AQ 3.5mm <-> RCA adapter so hooked up my amp through the direct headphone out. My God, It sounded so good! Better than schiit freya and Bimby combo, Imo. Not as good as Hugo2 but it is really good!

anyone tried a nano BL connected to a iCan Pro?
