{"product_id":"ibasso-dx340-flagship-digital-audio-player","title":"iBasso DX340 Flagship Digital Audio Player","description":"\u003cp\u003eThe iBasso DX340 is iBasso’s reference digital audio player, built around its own discrete DAC rather than a DAC chip. It inherits the DX300 series’ dual system controllers and dual batteries, adds iBasso’s in-house 1-bit discrete PWM-DAC and FPGA-Master 3.0, and reaches −119dB THD+N, in the league of flagship desktop discrete DACs. A replaceable amp card with a 12V DC input gives up to 2,150mW per channel into 32Ω, in a 316 stainless steel body. It won VGP 2025 Life Style Special Prize and Gold Award honours.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cimg src=\"https:\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0960\/3199\/8339\/files\/ibasso-dx340-flagship-digital-audio-player-photo-hero.jpg?v=1791347695\" alt=\"iBasso DX340 reference digital audio player\" loading=\"lazy\"\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eFPGA-Master 3.0\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFPGA-Master 3.0 brings together iBasso’s algorithm work of recent years and is what made the discrete DAC possible. As the audio system controller it requests audio data directly from the processor, synchronises and generates all the audio clocks from two Accusilicon femtosecond oscillators for a single, fully synchronised clock source, and drives the PWM-DACs. With 7.5 times the logic of FPGA-Master 2.0, it also runs iBasso’s new harmonic adjustment algorithm, which lets you adjust odd and even harmonics.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cimg src=\"https:\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0960\/3199\/8339\/files\/ibasso-dx340-flagship-digital-audio-player-photo-fpga.jpg?v=1791347701\" alt=\"FPGA-Master 3.0 in the iBasso DX340\" loading=\"lazy\"\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cimg src=\"https:\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0960\/3199\/8339\/files\/ibasso-dx340-flagship-digital-audio-player-photo-harmonic.jpg?v=1791347706\" alt=\"Advanced harmonic adjustment in the iBasso DX340\" loading=\"lazy\"\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003e128 discrete PWM-DACs\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe DX340 uses 16 sets of cascaded 8E PWM-DACs: four sets for each of L+, L−, R+ and R−, or 32 PWM-DACs per phase and 128 in all, more than 6.4 times as many as other portable discrete DACs.
