Does anyone know if I'll get better audio from something other than this device when listening to hifiman Ananda Nanos on mobile? The nano is rated at 14omhs with 94bd sound pressure. I'm not sure if the ifi go link has enough power for them.

Hello
I want to share the schematics to convert from an iem with 4.4 mm plug to a 3.5 trrs to use with the ifi go link s-balanced.
Please can you help me to check if this is fine, I did not know anything about the s- balanced thing until I've purchased this dac/amp.
I will have to build it, I could not find any adapter.

Is it really worth to use 3.5 trrs s-balanced or just the regular 3.5 stereo is OK? I mean talking about this go link specifically?
Not sure if I'm going to get a bit more juice for the IEM, I guess not, if this is using a share amp for both channels correct?

Maybe it does not deserves the effort and cost on building this....


Thank you

Hello marekm.
Thank you I need the 3.5 male and the 4.4 female. But I guess yes it could work. But not sure the balanced 3.5mm trrs is different for different brands. I know tthat ifi uses the hifiman schematic. But not sure about the pole mapping on that ones...

Hi all and @iFi audio

I just ordered an adapter 4.4 balanced female to 3.5 stereo male.

However they also sell 4.4 balanced female to 3.5 balanced male. Does this 3.5 balanced means s-balanced i.e. working with both my xdsd and go link ??? If yes i am bying it immediately.

I don't believe so, I think all the adapters just create single-ended.

But I will check for you and report back here if I may be wrong.

Thank you for your response.

I realise that i cannot enjoy my go link as much as i want because all my beloved headphones have 4.4 balanced cable.

I have ordered a similar adapter 4.4 female balanced to 2.5 balanced and now i can enjoy my xcan with all my other headphones and wow...

I want to do the same with my xdsd and go link.

"Given how many people use their smartphones to listen to music whilst out and about every day, it’s amazing that affordable products like this aren’t more popular. The Go Link takes most people’s main music source – their mobile phone – and confers audiophile respectability upon it."

Here is a link to their full review Review!!

Cheers!!

Hi guys my unit got bricked while updating the firmware, contacted ifi but didn't get proper solution till now. I saw few issues here pls share the necessary software.
If you got no resolution from support, could you PM me your ticket number? Perhaps I can push things along a bit.

My apologies if I am misunderstanding...

Cheers!!
