Description

GO blu Air

Hi-Fi that fits in.

 
 
The GO blu Air is a Bluetooth DAC made for everyday life. It slips into your routine like second nature — easy to carry, simple to use, and always ready for your latest playlist.
 
Plug your wired headphones in, then connect wirelessly to your smartphone, tablet, laptop, or other Bluetooth audio source device. To maximize mobile convenience, the GO blu Air can pair with your source device via Bluetooth. No more messing around with USB cables and dongles — just connect, and GO.
 
 
 
Made to Move with You.
The GO blu Air is purpose-built for life in motion. A new detachable magnetic clip is integrated directly into the chassis, allowing secure attachment to a bag, jacket, or belt without any bulky accessories or clunky workarounds.

A built-in MEMS microphone with Qualcomm’s noise and echo suppression enables clear hands-free calls, in-game voice chat, and instant access to your device’s voice assistant.
 
All this from a device that fits in your shirt pocket and weighs just 30 grams. 
 
 
Small Size. Serious Circuitry.
It might be small on the outside, but it’s what’s on the inside that counts. The GO blu Air comes packed with the kind of circuitry you’d expect from full-size systems.
 
Where most Bluetooth products rely on a single chipset for the critical tasks of reception, digital-to-analogue conversion, and amplification, the GO blu Air separates them, inspired by the stage-by-stage design of full-size hi-fi systems.
 
Its Qualcomm QCC5144 chipset is used solely for Bluetooth reception — the task it performs best. From there, audio is passed to a Hi-Res Cirrus Logic MasterHIFI DAC, hand-picked for its natural tonality, low power consumption, and high-resolution output. A twin-mono amplifier stage completes the path, delivering up to 256mW of clean, distortion-free power to drive your favourite over-ears, while the 3.5mm output includes iFi’s S-Balanced technology to reduce crosstalk for IEMs
 
  • Individually optimised Bluetooth, DAC, and twin-mono amplifier stages ​
  • Ultra-low jitter ‘GMT’ clocking system​
  • Balanced 4.4mm output with up to 256mW/5.6V of power; perfect for over ears. ​
  • 'S-Balanced' 3.5 mm output halves crosstalk and distortion; ideal for high-sensitivity IEMs.
 
Ready to Connect.
iFi incorporates its signature triple-stage Bluetooth architecture for improved signal stability and lower power consumption on the go.
 
The GO blu Air has been upgraded with Bluetooth 5.2 connectivity for audio quality and power efficiency. It supports a comprehensive suite of high-resolution codecs, including LDAC, LHDC, aptX (Classic, HD, Adaptive), AAC, and SBC. Whether you’re using an Android flagship, an iPhone, a tablet, or a third-party transmitter, the GO blu Air ensures high-quality pairing across all your everyday devices.
 
 
Sonic tailoring.
Music is personal, and the GO blu Air is designed to reflect this. Alongside delivering exceptionally expressive sound, it gives listeners the freedom to shape the experience to match their mood, music, or headphones, instantly and directly from the device.
 
Engage XBass to reinforce the low-end - perfect for open-back headphones that lack subbass, or just to add warmth and punch to your favourite tracks. Want a wider, more immersive soundstage? Activate XSpace to open up the listening experience and recreate the feel of a live performance.
 
Both these effects operate in the analog domain. You can even combine the two for ultimate effect. ​GO blu Air also offers our ‘Standard’ and ‘Minimum Phase’ digital filtering options for the final customisable cherry on top to your sound.
 
 
Music at Your Fingertips.
Control playback and volume with absolute precision using the built-in ChronoDial.
  • Turn to adjust volume
  • Short press to play, pause, skip forward and backward
  • Long press to wakeup smartphone voice assistant
 
Battery Life
The GO blu Air delivers up to 10 hours of uninterrupted, immersive sound on a single charge. Battery life will vary based on factors like volume level / amplifier power, and connection type.
