Embrace The New.
Our NEO series has always pushed the limits of what compact home audio components can achieve, often combining purist design principles with the freedom to tailor your listening experience.
The third generation of our NEO iDSD is a celebration of this approach; critical hardware has been re-engineered for even greater musicality and playback accuracy, while software innovation continues with the inclusion of JVCKENWOOD's K2HD Technology.
Just add your music source and play.
Rewired for Realism.
We've upgraded the internals of the NEO iDSD 3 to bring the most accurate sounding playback experience to date, whilst retaining the innate musicality it's known for:
- New operational amplifiers with 50% lower distortion and noise
- Upgraded polymer capacitors for 50% less power supply ripple
- WIMA MKS2 series caps for lower distortion and smoother HF
Restoring the Source Code.
Digital masters often miss the warmth and richness of their analogue roots, leaving you with sound that's cold and lifeless.
JVCKENWOOD's K2HD Technology extends high frequencies to restore natural harmonics, to bring back the depth, nuance, and musicality of the original performance.
For those who prefer this restoration without altering the song's sample rate, 'K2' mode provides a similar effect while preserving the native resolution.
The Power Within.
With the Diablo 2's amplification stage at its core, the NEO IDSD 3 delivers infernal power to your headphone setup.
Unplugged from Limits.
The NEO iDSD 2 made history as the world's first DAC to support the aptX Lossless codec, delivering true CD-quality audio over Bluetooth with zero data loss.
The NEO IDSD 3 continues to uphold class-leading Bluetooth performance, supporting aptX Lossless, LDAC, LHDC, and more to ensure it remains at the pinnacle of wireless sound.
Two Pathways to Perfection.
The NEO IDSD 3 uses a custom DAC stage built around a Burr-Brown chipset, hand-picked by us for its natural musicality.
Its distinctive architecture handles PCM and DSD via separate pathways, preserving a bit-perfect signal all the way through to analogue conversion.
With PCM input, the six most significant bits are processed in true multi-bit fashion, for natural dynamics and slam. The rest are handled via delta-sigma processing for exceptional low-level linearity.
Your Sonic Awakening.
The NEO IDSD 3 features our signature analogue processing, to transform headphone listening into a captivating experience:
- Red XSpace: Enhances the audio by creating a spacious sound field
- Blue XBass: Adds back the lost bass frequencies from open headphones
- Green XBass: Pushes mid presence towards the listener, for more forward sounding vocals
- Red XBass: Combines both the bass and midrange analogue processing options
