iFi GO pod Air

GO-pod-Air_h_06_2

Same Magic. Now Lighter.

Lighter, more portable, and more affordable than ever, the GO pod Air brings together audiophile architecture and a host of features for work and play - you'll never have to leave your IEMs behind again.

Turns IEMs into a Hi-Res Bluetooth Engine

The GO pod Air supports a wide range of high-resolution Bluetooth formats, including LDAC™ and LHDC (HWA) at their full 32-bit/96kHz capability. For Android devices with Snapdragon Sound, LDAC™ delivers its maximum 990kbps bitrate, while other LDAC™-enabled devices can stream at up to 660kbps.

Hi-Fi Circuitry with separate Bluetooth, DAC, and Amp stages

Unlike typical wireless earphones, which rely on a single chip for connection, conversion, and amplification, the GO Pod series sets itself apart with true Hi-Fi architecture. Inspired by high end Hi-Fi systems, iFi has meticulously designed and optimised each individual stage, using quality components throughout. Each pod features a premium-tier Qualcomm QCC514x Series chip dedicated solely to Bluetooth reception, which then sends data to a Cirrus Logic MasterHIFI DAC - hand-selected by iFi for its dynamic, engaging sound with minimal battery drain. The signal is then sent to a balanced amplification stage, with a dedicated clock ensuring perfect harmony between all components.

Balanced Amplification with Auto Impedance Matching

The GO pod Air's intelligent impedance matching is tailored to three different levels - 16 ohms, 32 ohms, and 64 ohms. Simply connect your IEMs, place the pods back in the charging case for a moment, and the intelligent impedance matching will automatically adjust to the best option for you. The GO pod Air incorporates a comprehensive suite of codecs - SBC, AAC, aptX (Classic, HD,Adaptive), LDAC and LHDC/HWA.

No matter what IEMs you're using, the GO pod Air will make sure you're hearing them at their best.

Built-In Mic with Noise Suppression Technology

Equipped with a microphone in each pod, the GO pod Air facilitates crystal-clear phone calls-further enhanced by built-in noise suppression technology from Qualcomm.With a simple tap on the multi-function touch panel, you can easily answer or reject calls - or activate your device's voice assistant.

Functionality and Quality, in Perfect Harmony.

Bluetooth TWS (True Wireless Stereo) earbuds have become an essential lifestyle tool, but many audiophiles are now faced with paying a premium for an inferior listening experience compared to their wired IEMs. In our continuing spirit of breaking down barriers for discerning music lovers, the GO pod Air is our lightest, most portable, and most affordable solution to the TWS dilemma. Simply connect your favourite IEMs to one of the many ear loop options, and transform your IEMs with Hi-Res Bluetooth compatibility, intuitive touch controls, and noise free calls.

Same Magic, Now Lighter.

Traditionally, Bluetooth audio has meant sacrificing sound quality for the sake of convenience. The GO pod Air breaks the mold, featuring our award-winning Bluetooth architecture to close the gap. Unlike typical wireless earphones, which rely on a single chip for connection, conversion, and amplification, the GO Pod series sets itself apart with true Hi-Fi architecture, where we have meticulously designed and optimised each individual stage, using quality components throughout. The GO pod Air brings the exact same audio 'magic' as its sibling but in a lighter chassis and case.

Wireless Workhorse.

For those in need of earbuds for work and productivity, the GO pod Air has you covered. The GO pod Air incorporates efficient, intuitive touch controls that put a range of features at your fingertips. Control calls, music, and volume, all with a touch, and even remotely activate voice assistants such as Siri and Google Assistant.

Crystal clear calls are provided by the GO pod Air's dual microphones, and supported by Qualcomm's cVc noise suppression technology. Whether it's an urgent business call or a busy video conference, the GO pod Air will cut through noise and ensure your voice is heard.

Go Adventuring...

The GO pod Air is more than just a work tool - they're also packed with features that will let you take your IEMs everywhere you find joy. The GO pod Air is IPX5 rated, ensuring they'll always perform, whether you're hit with an unexpected shower in the great outdoors, or sweating it out in the gym.

Always keen to think ahead, the GO pod Air also allows you to disable the pods' touch controls, so you won't have to worry about unwanted track changes during a walk or a workout. Innovation doesn't stop with the pods, either. The GO pod Air's lightweight travel case extends the already impressive 7 hours of battery life up to a total of 15 hours, and is 40% lighter and 20% smaller than the original GO pod case. No need for chargers or battery packs, just grab your case and seize the day.

Codecs Without Compromise..

The Bluetooth ecosystem is highly competitive, and for consumers it can often mean that not all Bluetooth options are available on one product. This is certainly the case with Bluetooth earbuds and headphones, where manufacturers are often forced to choose between competing Bluetooth codec families. Depending on the codecs available on your source device, this can severely limit the options available.

The GO pod Air incorporates a comprehensive suite of codecs - SBC, AAC, aptX (Classic, HD, Adaptive), LDAC and LHDC/HWA. No matter what phone, tablet or transmitter you choose, we guarantee there'll be an option for you.

Portable. Powerful. Compatible.

The GO pod Air sports innovative quality-of-life features to ensure maximum compatibility across the massive range of available IEMs.

We have a range of interchangeable ear loops to suit almost every IEM imaginable - 2-pin and MMCX ear loops are provided with the GO pod Air as standard, with T2, A2DP, and Pentaconn Ear options also available.

The GO pod Air has an IPX5 water resistance rating
