Description
The iFi GO pod Air is a lightweight wireless Bluetooth DAC and headphone amplifier designed to turn compatible detachable-cable IEMs into a true wireless listening system. Instead of replacing your favorite wired IEMs with conventional wireless earbuds, the GO pod Air replaces the cable while allowing you to continue using the IEMs you already enjoy.
Each pod uses a Qualcomm QCC514x-series Bluetooth chipset, dedicated Cirrus Logic MasterHIFI DAC, and balanced amplification stage. This separates Bluetooth reception, digital-to-analogue conversion, and amplification rather than relying on a single chip to handle the entire audio path.
Bluetooth 5.2 supports LDAC, LHDC/HWA, aptX Adaptive, aptX, AAC, and SBC. With compatible source devices, LDAC and LHDC/HWA support high-resolution wireless playback up to 32-bit/96kHz.

Automatic impedance matching adjusts the output for compatible IEMs using 16Ω, 32Ω, or 64Ω settings. Simply connect the IEMs and return the pods to the charging case briefly so the system can select the appropriate setting.
The standard package includes 0.78mm 2-pin and MMCX ear loops, allowing the GO pod Air to work with many popular detachable-cable IEMs. Buyers should confirm their IEM's connector type before ordering.
Each pod also includes a built-in microphone with Qualcomm noise suppression, while touch controls provide access to music playback, calls, volume, and compatible voice assistants. At approximately 10g per pod, the GO pod Air is designed for lightweight everyday use.
Battery life is approximately seven hours from the pods, with additional charging available from the compact USB-C charging case.
Dedicated Hi-Fi Architecture
Each GO pod Air uses separate Bluetooth, DAC, and amplification stages, including a Cirrus Logic MasterHIFI DAC and balanced amplification. This gives your existing IEMs a dedicated wireless audio path rather than replacing them with conventional Bluetooth earbuds.
High-Resolution Bluetooth
Bluetooth 5.2 supports LDAC, LHDC/HWA, aptX Adaptive, aptX, AAC, and SBC. Available codecs and playback quality depend on the capabilities of the connected source device.
Automatic Impedance Matching
The GO pod Air automatically selects between 16Ω, 32Ω, and 64Ω impedance settings to better match the connected IEM. The matching process occurs when the connected IEMs and pods are placed back into the charging case.
Interchangeable IEM Connections
0.78mm 2-pin and MMCX ear loops are included as standard. Additional connector options are available separately for other compatible IEMs.
Built for Everyday Wireless Listening
At approximately 10g per pod, the GO pod Air is designed for lightweight portable use. Built-in microphones, Qualcomm noise suppression, and touch controls support music playback, calls, volume adjustment, and compatible voice assistants.
