iBasso DX340MAX Ti

The iBasso DX340MAX Ti is a reference-class digital audio player that utilizes an advanced discrete 1-bit architecture. This limited edition is being released worldwide in a run of only 688 units and represents the absolute pinnacle of portable high-end audio.

As the ultimate evolution of the DX340, the DX340MAX features no fewer than 160 discrete PWM DACs. This number is more than eight times higher than in other portable DAC systems with a comparable architecture. Thanks to a completely revised circuit design and optimized signal paths, the player achieves exceptionally low distortion comparable to high-end desktop DACs from the absolute top tier.

Central to the design is FPGA-Master 3.0, a technology developed by iBasso based on years of research and proprietary algorithms. This advanced audio controller works in conjunction with extremely precise femtosecond clocks to minimize jitter and ensure highly accurate digital signal processing. Additionally, the system offers adjustable harmonic optimization, allowing the sound character to vary from warm and tube-like to energetic and dynamic.

To ensure maximum audio performance, the DX340MAX combines a powerful Snapdragon processor with a professional audio DSP and FPGA-Master 3.0. This separate architecture prevents system processes from affecting audio quality and ensures exceptionally clean and accurate signal processing.

The power supply consists of four specially developed lithium-polymer batteries that enable separate digital and analog power supplies. This minimizes interference between the two circuits and ensures optimal sound quality is maintained. For added performance, the player also supports a patented external 12V power supply, which powers the headphone amplifier directly for even more power, dynamics, and control.

The integrated headphone amplifier utilizes a fully balanced four-channel design with cascaded current feedback technology. Thanks to this advanced architecture, the DX340MAX delivers both impressive power and an exceptional level of detail. The very low output impedance ensures that both sensitive in-ear monitors and demanding headphones are driven optimally.

The sound tuning utilizes a large number of high-quality audio components, including carefully selected resistors and legendary capacitors from manufacturers such as RIFA and Sprague. These premium components contribute to a richer sound texture, greater refinement, and a more natural musical presentation.

The DX340MAX features both analog and digital volume control. The analog control uses an extremely precise 24-step attenuator that is normally found exclusively in high-end hi-fi equipment. This ensures that the channel balance remains extremely accurate, even at low volumes.

For the operating system, the player combines Android 13 with the specially developed Mango OS. Android provides access to streaming services and apps, while Mango OS is fully optimized for music playback without disruptive background processes, wireless connections, or additional system load. This results in an even purer listening experience.

The DX340MAX features a completely redesigned body crafted from aerospace-grade titanium. The housing combines a premium look with maximum durability and houses a 6-inch high-resolution AMOLED touchscreen. Dual volume controls on the side ensure intuitive operation and underscore the exclusive character of this player.

The DX340MAX supports virtually all common audio formats, including PCM up to 32-bit/768 kHz and native DSD512. It also features extensive connectivity options, including a 4.4 mm balanced headphone output, a 4.4 mm line output, a 3.5 mm headphone output, a coaxial output, and USB OTG.

Weighing 610 grams and measuring 150 × 89.5 × 27.2 mm, the DX340MAX is an uncompromising portable audio player designed for audiophiles seeking the highest sound quality without compromise.
