Description
Make your premium in-ear headphones a true wireless pair with the iFi audio GO pod, a set of two adapters that utilize Qualcomm's Snapdragon's 24-bit / 96 kHz D/A conversion for high-quality audio and Bluetooth 5.2 for optimum range, speed, and reliability—while minimizing drain on the batteries.
Included are three sets of earloops with MMCX, 0.78mm 2-pin, and Pentaconn ear connectors to ensure compatibility with a wide variety of earbuds. The GO pod offers a 7-hour runtime, and the included carrying case can give you up to 35 hours. Customize playback, phone, and volume controls to your exact desires, or make use of the free iFi-Gaia companion app to control everything from your iOS or Android device.

Hi-Res Audio Over Bluetooth 5.2
- Qualcomm’s 24-bit aptX HD and aptX Adaptive formats offer sample rates of up to 48 and 96 kHz respectively, with the additional benefit of QHS (Qualcomm High Speed) providing an extra 300 kbps of bandwidth.
- The GO Pod is compatible with an impressive array of high-definition Bluetooth formats. LDAC and LHDC (HWA) are both supported to their maximum 32-bit / 96 kHz specifications, with LDAC’s highest 990 kbps bitrate available to users of Android devices that support Snapdragon Sound (660 kbps with other LDAC-enabled devices).
- Other supported codecs include aptX Low Latency, regular aptX, AAC, and SBC.
- This means that every possible source device is handled at the highest audio resolution its Bluetooth specification allows.
Cirrus Logic MasterHIFI
- GO pod incorporates two Cirrus Logic MasterHIFI chips—one in the left pod, the other in the right. This 32-bit hi-res DAC chip is dedicated to single-channel digital-to-analog signal conversion in the GO pod’s circuit design, combining with a jitter-eradicating precision clock to deliver ultralow distortion and high dynamic range.
Balanced Amplification Stage with Auto-Impedance
- Delivering a balanced output signal to each connected earpiece, the GO pod’s amp stage has been carefully designed to ensure ultralow distortion and a silent background with high-sensitivity IEMs. With a power output of 120mW into 32 ohms and an output voltage of 4V into high-impedance 300-ohm loads, each GO pod supplies plenty of power to drive any connected IEM with ease—without rapidly draining the internal battery.
- To ensure its output perfectly matches the connected IEM, each pod autodetects the IEM’s impedance and adjusts power accordingly. There are four settings:16, 32, 64, and 300 ohms—with the setting most appropriate to the connected IEM selected automatically.
True-Wireless Mirroring
- With True-Wireless Mirroring, both the left and right pods can receive Bluetooth signals, but only the one with the strongest connection acts as the receiver while the other mirrors the connected pod.
- If the listener moves position and the connection to the mirroring pod becomes stronger, they swap over, so the mirroring pod becomes the receiver without interrupting the audio signal. Similarly, if the receiving pod is removed from the listener’s ear, the other pod becomes the receiver, ensuring a seamless true-wireless stereo experience.
Personal Sonic Tailoring
- To minimize pre-echos and ringing artifacts, the DAC is designed with proprietary digital-interpolation filters that support five digital filter responses. These user-selectable settings offer a degree of personal sonic tailoring including low group delay with pseudo-linear phase and a fast or slow roll-off.
Charging Case with Qi Wireless and USB-C Charging
- The GO Pod comes with a smartly designed charging cas with softly lined internal compartments and sufficient room to accommodate connected IEMs as well as the pods themselves.
- A 1500mAh rechargeable battery is built into the charging case; a pair of GO pods will play for up to seven hours on a single charge, while the case provides multiple recharges to enable up to 35 hours of playing time.
- The case supports both Qi wireless charging and USB-C fast charging.
Touch Controls / Built-In Microphone with Noise Suppression
- The aluminum panel on the front of each pod works as a touch control; simply tap to play or pause audio, skip forward or back, answer or reject a phone call, or engage the connected device’s voice assistant.
- A built-in microphone utilizes Qualcomm’s cVc noise-suppression technology for excellent voice clarity, whether you’re making a hands-free phone call, chatting on a video call, speaking to the connected device’s voice assistant, or even playing a game online.
IPX5-Rated to Withstand Gym Workouts
- The GO Pod is designed to be robust and durable yet comfortable and lightweight—each pod weighs just 0.4 oz.
- The ear loops are ergonomically shaped and moldable to fit around your ears, while the pods are water- and sweat-resistant (IPX5 rated), so you will have no problem wearing them at the gym or getting caught out in the rain.
