iFi GO pod Max: Where Wireless Meets the Pinnacle of High-Fidelity

In a world where wireless convenience too often demands sonic compromise, iFi’s new GO pod Max arrives to reset expectations entirely. Building on the momentum of its acclaimed predecessor, the GO pod Max is not just an upgrade — it is a reinvention of what’s possible in truly high-end wireless audio.


Precision-engineered from a single block of aluminium and loaded with bleeding-edge audio tech, the GO pod Max is iFi’s most ambitious wearable yet. Designed for audiophiles who demand purity without cables, it fuses lossless Bluetooth, bespoke K2HD audio restoration, and high-end circuit architecture into a compact solution that redefines the wireless IEM experience.

Lose Nothing. Gain Everything.


For years, going wireless meant one thing: compromise. That changes today. With aptX Lossless, the GO pod Max delivers true CD-quality audio — no downsampling, no lost detail — via Bluetooth. Backed by Qualcomm’s flagship QCC5181 chipset, it delivers up to 1,200kbps of wireless bandwidth — nearly four times that of traditional Bluetooth codecs.

Whether streaming from a phone or DAP, you’ll experience new levels of detail, dynamics, and definition — all without a cable in sight.

Restoring What Was Lost: The Magic of K2HD


Even CD-quality music can fall short of the original studio recording. That’s where K2HD Technology comes in. Developed by JVCKENWOOD and specially adapted for iFi, this proprietary tech reconstructs lost high-frequency harmonics and enhances transient detail — restoring warmth, depth, and musical realism once thought unrecoverable from 16-bit sources.


With the GO pod Max, your favorite tracks feel more alive — not just technically accurate, but emotionally resonant.



Engineered Like a True Hi-Fi System


Unlike typical wireless earbuds that rely on all-in-one chipsets, the GO pod Max separates key audio stages for optimal performance:

  • Qualcomm QCC5181 handles Bluetooth

  • Cirrus Logic MasterHIFI DAC ensures pure, dynamic conversion

  • Balanced amplification stage delivers headroom and control

  • Dedicated clock system preserves timing, separation, and imaging


This is true hi-fi architecture, miniaturized and worn on your ears.

Universal Compatibility with Intelligent Adaptation


Whether you’re a seasoned audiophile or new to IEMs, the GO pod Max adapts to you:

  • Auto Impedance Matching tailors performance to your IEMs' unique requirements

  • Interchangeable ear loops support 2-pin, MMCX, T2, A2DC, and Pentaconn Ear connectors

  • Soft, ergonomic design ensures all-day comfort


No matter your setup, the GO pod Max is ready to meet it with performance-first precision.


Designed for Life — and Lifestyle


The aluminium charging case isn’t just beautiful — it’s smart. Four UV-C lights inside sterilize your IEMs between uses. IPX5 water resistance makes the GO pod Max perfect for workouts, commutes, or unexpected downpours.


Battery anxiety? Don’t sweat it — with 7 hours of playtime and up to 35 total with the case, you’ll stay powered through transcontinental flights or long days on the go. USB-C and Qi wireless charging keep things flexible.



Multitask Like a Pro


From voice assistants to business calls, the GO pod Max keeps pace. Touch-sensitive controls provide intuitive access to playback, volume, and voice AI. Dual microphones with Qualcomm’s cVc echo cancellation and noise suppression ensure your voice always comes through — no matter the background.
