iEMatch
A switch on the underside activates iFi’s iEMatch which reduces hiss, enhances detail and dynamic range, and improves volume control range. Optimized for high-sensitivity headphones and earphones, iEMatch is especially beneficial for IEMs.

Truly Balanced
The hip-dac 3 features a true balanced circuit design, minimizing signal distortion and yielding a purer signal. The amp stage can deliver up to 400mW into a 32Ω load, making it compatible with a wide range of headphones

Burr-Brown DAC
The hip-dac 3 uses a Burr-Brown DAC chip for its fluid, highly 'musical' sound quality and True Native architecture.
