Is your audio still plagued by hum and buzz?
Using multiple plugs within your audio chain means separate earth/ground points. These multiple earth or ground points cause a ground loop problem. This creates an unwanted chain of noise, buzz and distortion.
Struggle no more. iFi’s iDefender+ provides the simple, effective solution you need.
Key Features Explained
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.
Breaking earth loops
Kills USB power noise by ‘breaking’ the earth/ground loops in the correct way. It significantly reduces the system noise floor and makes for better dynamic contrast, warmth and resolution.
5 Volts of Clean Power
Inject 5 volts of clean power via the ‘separate’ USB-C port. This disconnects the USB power from the PC and replaces it with clean external power. For ultra-low noise, use our 5-volt iPower Elite or iPower X.
Using a USB DAC?
Are you using the iDefender+ with a DAC that relies on USB power from a computer rather than power from the mains or a built-in battery?
Good news. The iDefender+ offers an additional benefit. If an external power supply is plugged into the USB-C socket on its side, it blocks power from the computer and instead feeds the DAC with ‘clean’ power from the external supply.
Plug and Purify
The iDefender3.0 plugs into your computer USB port and auto-detects if there ismore than one earth and will ‘intelligently’ disconnect the computer earth for acleaner sound. It eliminates ground loops that keep the DAC from functioningproperly and compromise the transparency of the restitution.
How do I use?

Simply connect the iDefender+ between your USB source and DAC to eliminate ground loops, reduce noise, and improve audio clarity
