Improves the Performance of Pro-Ject Turntables, DACs, Phono Stages, Streamers, and More
The original iFi iPower provides an effective, clean power solution for noise in your system. But why not push your power upgrade to the max with the all-new iFi iPower X? This ultra-low noise AC/DC power supply from iFi has been optimized to take advantage of new knowledge, new components, and new tech in the world of super high-frequency power supply design.
For Virtually Any DC Powered AV Device
Which products benefit? The iPower X works with virtually any DC powered AV device that uses an outboard power supply, such as the common 'wall wart' – from streamers to DACs to phono stages to Pro-Ject turntables. And the iPower X is simple to use. Just check the correct voltage and order the appropriate model (5V, 9V, 12V, or 15V). Check the correct polarity setup (see below), ensure the current output is sufficient, then plug in and enjoy.
While the majority of home and pro audio products have a 'center positive' DC power connector type, some components use a 'center negative' instead. Correct polarity is crucial to the iPower X. If you are unsure of the DC polarity of your product, please look in the user guide for you component or check with your vendor. For equipment using a DC power connection, it is common practice to include protection circuitry against over-voltage/reverse polarity, but not every manufacturer will have applied this. Always check first, as AMR/iFi is not responsible for incorrect use or damage arising from use of the iPower X.
To use the iPower X with 'center negative' components, the iPower X comes with a Center Negative Power Adapter.
Active Noise Cancellation2
The iPower X uses iFi's Active Noise Cancellation2 to cancel all incoming EMI or RFI noise. Based on military tech, iFi's improved Active Noise Cancellation2 circuitry actively cancels all incoming noise. It does this in a similar way to active noise-cancelling headphones. It generates a signal identical to that of the incoming electrical noise but in the opposite phase, actively cancelling it out. This is highly effective at removing low- and mid-frequency noise, while passive insulating filters deal with higher frequency interference.
This combination is measurably more effective at eradicating noise corrupting the USB signal than devices relying solely on passive filtering. It reduces the noise floor by >40dB (>100x).
Improved Capacitance
As is usual with iFi, every new design means not only improving how it looks on the outside but more importantly also how it functions on the inside. The input capacitance is now 50% larger and the output capacitance is 150% larger when compared to the original iPower. In practical terms, this gives you more filtration, improved dynamics, and unsurpassed sound quality.
For better suppression of high-frequency noise, iFi added solid organic semi-conductors to its output filter. The iPower X leakage noise is 20x lower than normal SMPS (100pf vs 2,200pf) of outboard ‘wall wart’ power supplies.
Crème de la Crème Components
Inside iPower X iFi is using the latest solid organic capacitors for better suppression of high-frequency noise. And the leakage capacitance is <20x than your normal SMPS. In a nutshell, this means there is no escape for unwanted noise!
All in all, the iPower X will give you 20% more power than the original iFi iPower and increased amperage, which means it can work with more equipment than ever before.
Sleek, Modern Design
The iPower X comes dressed in a new cream/beige chassis for a cool, clean look. iFi has added several openings and the iFi logo is backlit by a pleasant cyan LED light. There’s no second guessing when this mini work of art is on and connected to the mains. And as always, gives you freedom. The iPower X is interchangeable with 'wall plug' types across the world.
