iFi nano iGalvanic3.0 USB Digital Audio System

  • The iGalvanic3.0 is the one-stop USB audio enhancement solution for every computer audio lover.

  • It uses audio-grade galvanic isolation, REclock/REgenerate/REBalance2 and a clean USB power supply.

  •  iGalvanic3.0 breaks ground loops, avoids noise-coupling in applications that require hi-speed USB transfers and dramatically improves sonic performance.

  • Built-in super noise converter.

Description

Details

Love your computer audio? But plagued by buzz, hum and jitter?

The iGalvanic3.0 can help. It will lift your computer audio to the next level.


So, whether you’re listening on a:

 

  1. Mac – which produces natural hum and buzz as they aren’t earthed/grounded
  2. Laptop – whose earth/ground adds distortion due to multiple cables

 

The iGalvanic3.0 plugs into any USB port via your DAC and creates a new signal.

So who benefits from the iGalvanic3.0? Everyone who uses USB for computer audio but more specifically, the iGalvanic3.0 is the ideal solution to:

 

  1. Break ground loops
  2. Avoid noise-coupling in applications that require hi-speed USB transfers.

 

Thus, the iGalvanic3.0 is the perfect solution for computer audiophiles through to recording studios seeking maximum sound quality from their USB digital audio system.

The perfect trio

The iGalvanic3.0 includes:

 

  • Galvanic Isolation – to stop noise contaminating the signal
  • Power Station Stealth Converter – to lower the noise floor
  • REclock/REgenerate/REbalance Technology – to ensure you hear audio in its natural form

 

With added width, depth and texture to your music you’ll never be stuck with metallic, harsh sound again.

Doesn't compare to others

Other USB galvanic isolation devices are limited to Full Speed (12 Mbps) and Low Speed (1.5 Mbps) transmission. By comparison the iGalvanic3.0 represents the next generation as it is capable of transmitting USB Hi-Speed (480 Mbps) and USB3.0 Super-speed (5Gbps) as well as the lower speeds while providing full galvanic isolation of both the data and the power/ground lines. Where others have stopped at USB2.0 galvanic isolation, we started with USB3.0 galvanic isolation and absolutely turbocharged the device for the ultimate in USB audio.

Enclosure

The iGalvanic3.0 features the iFi aluminum block. This enclosure acts as a shield against harmful electromagnetic interference (EMI/RFI) to further minimize noise. Blocking all the noise coming from a PC results in vast sound quality improvements. Non-aluminium designs offer little to no shielding from EMI/RFI.

 
galvanic isolation

The Holy Grail of computer audio

 

The iGalvanic3.0 features two distinctly separate galvanic isolation stages - one for USB3.0 and the other for USB2.0. They CANNOT be the same because the fundamental architecture is different: - USB3.0 has separate transmitting AND receiving lines. - USB2.0 is bi-directional on one SHARED line. Both USB3.0 and USB2.0 galvanic isolation stages are ground-up, new platforms dedicated for computer audiophile systems and available to no-one else.

REgen REclock REbalance

Double REclock REgenerate REbalance

 

Cleaner, clearer music. The 2nd gen of this technology creates an all new signal, eliminates computer jitter and removes noise contamination to restore a 'balanced' signal.

USB3.0 Superspeed @ 5.0Gbps

 

The iGalvanic3.0 offers USB3.0 galvanic isolation. With separate transmission AND reception lines, it is superior to USB2.0 at handling high data volumes and is future-proofed. It is fully USB3.0 (and 2.0) standard compliant, with support for all speeds (from 1.5Mbps to 5Gbps) and all transfer modes (including isochronous audio streaming).

power station stealth converter

Stealth Converter

 

For ease of use and utility, the iGalvanic3.0 operates from USB Bus Power. A USB3.0 port is preferred as it is better constructed and supplies more power, 0.9mA (compared to 0.5A on USB2.0). When operating from a USB3.0 or higher port, the iGalvanic3.0 can deliver up to 0.9A isolated low-noise power. Measured noise is 0.5uV (0.0000005V) @ 500mA load.

Groundlink- to suit different systems

 

All computer audio systems are different. This product is dedicated for computer audio use and incorporates Ground Link (ISO, RF, DC-RF). A flick of the switch optimises isolation in systems where there is no, one or multiple grounds (earths) which cause hum and/or buzz.

zero delay

Zero Delay

 

A highly-advanced isolation technology, without any added conversion, processing, timing uncertainties or delays. It is native, and Bit-Perfect with minimal latency.

 
1st galvanic logo

Audiophile-grade

 

This is the world's 1st audiophile-grade galvanic isolation on USB3.0. Electrical circuits are separated to eliminate stray elements - a signal can pass but nothing else.

Inteference free audio. Cleaner than clean and with Reclock/Regenerate our fastidious attention to sound quality never waivers.
