    SilentPower by iFi know how crucial it is for you to immerse yourself in your favourite music. Excess earth connections often introduce ground loop noise, causing irritating hum in your speakers or headphones. The iDefender Max removes these unwanted connections, resolving ground loop hum and enhancing your listening experience.

    Ground loops cause interference and noise through multiple paths to ground in your system. Diagnose them by touching a metal chassis and listening for changes. If there’s no change, you likely have a ground loop. The iDefender Max eliminates this noise by disconnecting the PC’s earth.

    The iDefender Max intelligently removes excess ground connections without compromising safety. It supports up to 100W (20V/5A), expanding compatibility beyond USB DACs. Its aluminum housing enhances cooling and shields against EMI. The side USB-C port allows for clean external power, and USB 3.0 high-speed data transfer ensures flawless hi-res audio playback.

    Pure, pristine sound awaits.

    Retaining Safety
    The iDefender Max is intelligent in how it removes excess ground connections – it does not compromise equipment or user safety. Unlike other ground lifts, iDefender Max will automatically reinstate a ground connection if a current-based fault is detected, sending excess current directly to earth.

    Maximum Compatibility
    The input of the iDefender Max now supports up to 100W (20V/5A). This greatly expands the list of devices it is compatible with and removes it from the confines of USB DAC applications.

    Immune to Interference
    The aluminium housing of the iDefender Max is not just for durability. The chassis acts as a heatsink, enhancing cooling performance of the unit. It also ensures for complete shielding against Electromagnetic Interference (EMI).

    Unleash the Power
    The iDefender Max features a side USB-C port for separate, clean external power. This disconnects the USB power from the PC and replaces it with a cleaner, more audiophile-grade solution – such as the
    SilentPower iPower2.

    Speed without Compromise
    iDefender Max supports USB 3.0 high-speed data transfer, significantly faster than USB 2.0 standards. This means that it does not impair playback of hi-res audio files, regardless of quality or file size.
