## Overview

The iFi uno is a compact, high-performance DAC and headphone amplifier featuring a 32-bit ESS Sabre HiFi chip with advanced jitter elimination and dynamic range enhancement. It connects effortlessly via USB-C to a wide range of devices, delivering pristine, customizable sound through 3.5mm and RCA outputs. Housed in a durable mineral-filled polymer case with an aluminum front, the uno is the perfect first step for professionals seeking a bold, detailed audio upgrade on the go or at the desk.

## Description

The uno, by iFi, is a first-rung audio upgrade – a DAC/headphone amp for people who may not know what a DAC is, but know they want better sound quality when they listen to music, stream movies and TV shows, play games and enjoy other forms of audio and AV content, from podcasts to YouTube.Small enough to fit in the palm of your hand, the uno’s cute, curvy case is made from tough, mineral-filled polymer and contains sophisticated DAC and headphone amp circuitry to upgrade the basic audio tech in all sorts of digital devices. Its USB-C input connects to Windows PCs, Apple Macs, and all manner of smartphones and tablets. It doesn’t require its own power source, receiving both power and audio data from the device to which it’s connected. And it delivers a perfectly processed, optimally amplified analogue audio signal to headphones, powered speakers, or an amp and separate speakers.The uno draws from the experience iFi has gained in developing a range of multi-award-winning DACs at a wide spread of prices, from under £200 to over £3000. At its heart lies a power-efficient, high-performance DAC chip from ESS Technology’s Sabre HiFi series – the ES9219MQ/Q – benefiting from 32-bit HyperStream III architecture. This combines with Quad DAC+ and Time Domain Jitter Eliminator technologies, plus iFi’s dedicated clock circuitry utilising a specialised crystal oscillator, to deliver ultra-low distortion, excellent clarity and impressive dynamic range. iFi has taken full advantage of the DAC chip’s advanced specification, unlocking rarely implemented highend features such as adjustable analogue gain with DRE (Dynamic Range Enhancement), plus technologies to minimise THD (Total Harmonic Distortion) and crosstalk. A choice of digital filters is accessible via the front-panel buttons, enabling users to fine-tune the DAC’s sound according to taste.

Review: Small DAC but produces super cool music! - Perfect! I connected my iMac (using Tidal Streaming) to this DAC then to Yamaha Aventage A4A thru Audioquest RCA jacks. The result is detailed and high clarity music. My speakers are Cambridge Audio and SVS SB1000 Pro sub. This DAC is small and not a distraction, you can even hide it.
Review: Love it. Easy to set up and use and it sounds very good.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Review
*by R***M on 17 February 2023*

Got this as soon as I read the first few reviews. This is IFi's most affordable product (barring accessories). To be honest, I wasn't expecting much, just expecting the honest to goodness Ifi signature sound. I was not disappointed. Plugged my Sony Xba Z5 and various chi-fi items, sound was clean, smooth and there was plentiful reserve of power. Noise floor was in audible and seperation was clean. Moved to my headphones across various makes and models from AKG K371, Beyer DT770 and 880 80ohms, Sennheiser HD599, 6XX, HD25 and 800S, I was reasonably pleased. Even for the 800S, there was some headroom left if I need more boost to my listening levels. It's just adequate but you know it's not a good match. The various eq mode worked fine, each providing a very mild boost on the lows, mids and highs for games, movies and music respectively. Interesting but I would same the mainstream users who have a hard time appreciate the insignificant boost. For me, it's only music only that kinda works but I probably use it less than half the time. Still, for the price Ifi is asking, it's really a no brainer buy.
