iFi Audio iPower X DC Power Supply

 

Please Note, the iPower X 5v comes with a DC to Micro USB B connector for connections where USB 5v power is required.

The original iFi iPower provides an effective, clean power solution for noise in your system. But why not push your power upgrade to the max with the all-new iFi iPower X?

iFi's new ultra-low noise AC/DC power supply has been optimised to take advantage of new knowledge, components and tech in the world of super high-frequency power supply design.

The iPower X uses Active Noise Cancellation II  to cancel all incoming EMI or RFI noise. This is the same tech as in active noise-cancelling headphones! Imagine how well these block out cabin noise on a plane compared to regular headphones? This is what the iPower X does to your power supply.

 

Improved capacitance

As usual with iFi, every new design means not only improving how it looks on the outside but more importantly, how it functions on the inside. The input capacitance is now 50% larger and the output capacitance is 150% larger when compared to the original iPower. In practical terms, this gives you more filtration, improved dynamics and unsurpassed sound quality.

 

Crème de la crème components

iFi is using the latest solid organic capacitors for better suppression of high-frequency noise. And the leakage capacitance is some 20x lower than your normal SMPS! In a nutshell, there is no escape for unwanted noise! All in all, the iPower X will give you 20% more power than the original iFi iPower and increased amperage which means it can work with more equipment than ever before.

 

Sleek, modern design

The iPower X comes dressed in a new cream/beige chassis for a cool, clean look. iFi has added several openings and the iFi logo backlit by a pleasant cyan LED light. There’s no second-guessing when this mini work of art is on and connected to the mains.

 

Because we play music too…

Musician? Loving your effect pedals but not so much one when goes down in the middle of a gig? And your spare is nowhere to be found? The iFi iPower X has a centre negative adapter so you can use this correctly with your gear. Cleaner sound AND the show goes on! What’s not to like?

 

iPowerX for LED lights

Photography? No way. iPowerX can also solve my flickering LED light problem? Yes, a constant current and voltage power supply like iPowerX will ensure that the current supplied to your LED system will remain stable, no matter the fluctuations of the AC power in your wall socket.

About iFi Audio

British-heritage maker of DACs, headphone amplifiers and streamers, from pocket dongles to home systems.

iFi audio is the sister brand of Abbingdon Music Research, which is headquartered in Southport, UK.

Home audio lines with clear names

The ZEN series includes the ZEN Air DAC, ZEN DAC, ZEN CAN, ZEN Phono and ZEN Stream. The iDSD series includes the Valkyrie, Phantom and Diablo, and the NEO range includes the NEO iDSD and NEO Stream. The iCAN Phantom and the Hip-dac sit alongside them.

Portable products for your phone or laptop

The GO series covers the GO pod, GO link, GO bar and GO blu, which are small units for phones and laptops. Larger portable models include the xDSD Gryphon. Bluetooth and USB-C versions mean you can choose the connection that matches the device you already own.

Cables and adapters complete the catalogue

iFi lists digital cables, audio cables and adapters in its accessories range, including the GO cable. These are the parts that link an iFi unit to the rest of your system, so you can pick up the right lead from the same brand when you buy the DAC or amplifier.

Why we stock iFi

iFi solve specific problems rather than selling you a whole system. Noise on a USB feed, a laptop that cannot drive your headphones properly, hum from a ground loop. Each unit does one job well at a price that does not require a long think, which is why they turn up in so many systems.

AI Review Summary — Generated from 33 Reviews

The iFi iPower X is consistently praised for delivering noticeable audio improvements across multiple applications—DACs, headphone amplifiers, network switches, routers, and streaming devices. Customers report clearer sound, tighter bass, improved soundstage, reduced background noise, and enhanced dynamics. Several reviewers note the unit requires 100+ hours of run-in time to reach full performance. Build quality is described as excellent and durable. One reviewer expressed skepticism about subtle improvements and placebo effects, though still detected minor benefits like cleaner bass. Retailer service receives frequent commendation for fast shipping and responsiveness. One defective unit was received but promptly replaced. No negative product quality or build issues emerged beyond the single faulty adapter connection in one unit.

Nice upgrade to wall wort ppower supply on my network switch 16 May 2026
Nice and not too expensive power supply upgrade for my network switch. I stupidly ordered the wrong voltage - 5v instead of 9v

Ifi audio ipower X 14 July 2025
I recently bought the iPower X to replace the standard wall wart plugged into my router. The effect was significant.

The background became less noisy. The bass became tighter. I got more clarity at the top end, and voices became clearer. You have to give it about 100 hours of continuous running for it to show its TRUE character.

Power Supply for a modem 24 February 2025
For context, this review is for a mains treatment solution for a modem and router in a hallway that is linked via ethernet cable to my AV system in a lounge with its own existing mains treatment. I didn’t assess each part of the solution separately for effectiveness, but I strongly suspect they all provided an advantage.

The audiophile mains extension (without filter) was upgraded to a better one and I introduced audiophile power supplies for both the modem and router.

The iFi Audio X DC Power Supply is for my Sky Broadband Hub (in modem only mode).

The Sky Stream TV picture quality is now even better with more definition, lovely deep colours & it is much more 3 dimensional. The sound quality is better too being more dynamic and much closer to Bluray quality. This was especially noticed on a 5.1 Netflix film.

Yes, the overall solution cost a bit of money but I wouldn't want to go back.

The jury is still out. 24 February 2025
Having followed the standard audio hobby path of room management, speaker selection/placement and amp/source options I find myself in the "tweakery" area. I range between agnostic and downright sceptical but decided to give the iFi iPower a go in my system. During an extended period, it has mostly been used to power a Netgear GS105 switch. This help stream from a NAS drive and Tidal via a Naim Superuniti, Holo Audio Cyan 2 DAC and Rotel RA1592 MKii amp into Proac D18 speakers.

The item is well designed and constructed and I suspect will live as long as any component. Through active listening, I am struggling to detect any detail improvement or enhanced sound stage, but I do have a sense that the base is a little cleaner and better controlled. I have also noticed fewer Tidal drop-outs. Finally I used the unit to drive my modem but couldn't detect any differences, however, when going back to the original SMPS "something" did seem to be missing in my music. Whilst I can't rule out the placebo effect, I'm sure this device is doing something positive, but it's very subtle in my system. Given how much money we can spend on our hobby, I'm happy to say it's a low-risk gamble for fans of tweakery.

When funds allow, I may add to my modem/router but will continue my assessment in the following weeks.
