So, what does the HeadFi community think this might be? I'm not sure. It looks like a credit card.

"it" is more likely an iClub ID Card... So you can flash it when you are invited to an iFi Function like the last iFi Dinner or when you show up at an iFi Audio Show and demo the latest iFi Audio gear...

i hope it's a virtual iClub card:  via IOS app or Android application.
no more room in my wallet for another slab of plastic.

Not everyone is going to show up in their Octa T-Shirt at an iFi Audio event... So an iFi Audio iClub ID Card would be a great idea...

If I remember correctly there was a driver update released for the iClub members only. Is it still in the beta (for normal costumers) or did I miss something?


I have tried installing the driver several time on my Window 7 PC but if have failed several time. Waiting for the iFi Team to respond. Not sure if I am the only one thought.

As for the exclusive, guessing it to be an ID card :wink:

Best to try it yourself :) but I see AK120 is using WM8740. I believe on paper, the Micro iDSD's DAC is better but then again, there are things that look good on paper but don't perform well in real life and vice versa.

Hi,
 
Just to confirm, optical is reliable up to 96kHz. It is possible to go higher but will vary from one setup (cables etc) to another.
 
Cheers.
