iSilencer+
Enjoy the ‘new’ silence.
Connecting audio gear via USB can have pros and cons. While capable of passing hi-res data at max resolution and allowing bit-perfect transfer, USB was not created specifically for audio.
It carries both power and data. It is susceptible to electrical noise, for example, from the computer’s power supply. This has a negative effect on sound quality.
Fear not! At iFi, we first banished these gremlins with the iSilencer3.0 and now, we’re making silence sound even better with the iSilencer+.
Key Features
Active Noise Cancellation
The iSilencer+ removes electrical noise (including EMI/RFI) at source using iFi's Active Noise Cancellation II circuit. This process enables bit-perfect transfer of audio data to the DAC.
SuperSpeed USB 3.0
‘SuperSpeed’ USB 3.0 has a more exhaustive wiring specification which allows for a greater amount of audio transfer while still being backwards compatible. The units incorporate high-quality gold-plated connectors for optimal signal transfer.
REbalance® the USB signal
The new iSilencer+ re-balances signals via iFi's REbalance technology, ensuring that the digital signal received by the DAC is identical to the original source, no matter which audio format is being played.
Double whammy.
As well as plugging the iSilencer+ into the active USB port between the computer and DAC, it can also be plugged into unused USB ports too. This will further reduce radiated EMI. Each time the number of units (and therefore the number ANC II circuits) is doubled, noise reduction capability also doubles.
Plug. Play. Pop free.
Electrical noise on USB causes errors, data loss and poor signal integrity. You will hear these as distortion – pops, clicks and delays. The iSilencer+ solves all of this quickly and easily. It plugs directly into the USB port of your computer as a link between your computer and your DAC. It will remove electrical noise, both EMI and RFI, at source. Your music will seem clearer, warmer, and more transparent with improved bass.
Silence. Improved.
The iSilencer+ uses our latest Active Noise Cancellation II® technology. It decreases noise in a similar way to noise-cancelling headphones.
We use our REBalance® tech to get rid of clicks and distortion. We’ve upgraded the circuitry; low-ESR tantalum capacitors have been added for improved input and output filtering. Filtering capacitance has been increased 10-fold.
How do I use?
Insert the iSilencer+ into an unused USB port or between your USB source and DAC to reduce noise, eliminate interference, and enhance audio clarity.
