Designed for professional musicians, producers, and audio engineers looking for a portable DAC and headphone amplifier with high-quality Bluetooth streaming, the xDSD Gryphon Pro Pack from iFi Studio offers a sophisticated feature set in a pocket-sized form factor with intuitive controls. The unit supports digital inputs via USB-C and 3.5mm coaxial/optical connectors, while analog sources can be connected to the 4.4mm balanced or the 3.5mm unbalanced outputs. Connect balanced headphones to the 4.4mm output or unbalanced headphones to the 3.5mm jack, which uses S-balanced circuitry to reduce crosstalk and distortion.
The iFi Studio digital platform keeps each processing section separate to ensure a pristine signal flow. The Qualcomm Bluetooth chip supports high-definition Bluetooth audio formats, while 5.1 compliance ensures the best possible range, stability, and performance—allowing you to ditch the cable to your mobile device and still get great-sounding results. Global Master Clock (GMC) technology eliminates jitter, while the Burr-Brown True Native chipset provides outstanding digital-to-analog conversion. The xDSD Gryphon Pro Pack features a rechargeable battery; three USB cables and a carrying pouch are also included.

- When you are working in the studio, the Gryphon Pro Pack proves its worth. Use it when tracking to monitor the guide or other musicians’ tracks with a level of quality you’ve never heard before. Rely on it to perform perfectly every time, so tracking sessions run smoothly with minimum downtime.
- Take it with you on the road, and use it onstage to power your IEMs with the sort of audio quality and clarity that is very rarely experienced in live situations. Connect the monitor feed to the Gryphon Pro Pack’s balanced input and your IEMs to the headphone output, adjusting the iEMatch control to fine-tune the output.
- The Gryphon Pro Pack’s PureWave analog amplifier stage is 1000mW at 32 ohms with a huge 6.7V output, ensuring that compatibility with even the most demanding headphones isn’t a problem.
- Connect balanced and unbalanced headphones, and tune the output for high-sensitivity IEMs using iEMatch to cut out the hiss.
- The XBass active EQ circuit allows you to compensate for the lack of bass in some headphones, particularly open-backed models.
- Digital sources can be fine-tuned using the switchable filters. Choose between Bit Perfect, Standard, and Gibbs Transient Optimized for a personalized playback experience.
- The CyberSync software-driven analog volume control senses and synchronizes with the digital source, such as a DAW. Whatever OS is connected, CyberSync instructs the source to bypass its inferior software volume control. The volume is controlled by the Gryphon’s superior analog volume control chip regardless of whether the Gryphon rotary volume or source’s controls are used.
- The Gryphon Pro Pack gives equal weight to its analog and digital stages. There is no compromise inside the Gryphon. The ultrahigh-resolution digital stage uses a state-of-the-art Burr-Brown MultiBit D/A chipset at its core for bit-perfect conversion.
- The PureWave analog power sections outputs 1000mW, providing a huge boost over the output from laptops and digital audio players. Both stages within the Gryphon are kept separate and optimized for maximum performance.
- Finished your performance and want to relax on the tour bus? The Gryphon Pro Pack is the perfect portable headphone amp and D/A, allowing you to enjoy your personal music or movie collection on the move from your smart phone or tablet’s digital output.
- In addition to its traditional inputs, the Gryphon Pro Pack integrates a HD Bluetooth playback facility, making it perfect for your personal enjoyment of music streamed from your phone or DAP using aptX, aptX HD, aptX Adaptive, aptXLL, LDAC, and LHDC/HWA and others.
