Heavenly Sound. Devilish Power.

The Diablo 2, dressed in Devilish Red, succeeds the Diablo-X, boasting enhancements like increased headphone output power, support for lossless Bluetooth codecs, xMEMS technology, iEMatch, a USB-C input, improved circuitry, and more. It offers a powerful 5,180mW max output and balanced dual-mono circuitry, making it the most powerful headphone amplifier of its size.

Diabolical Innovation. Shattering Boundaries.

The Diablo 2 is the world’s first portable DAC/Amp with Bluetooth 5.4, supporting aptX Lossless for CD-quality streaming. It pioneers xMEMS solid-state micro-speaker technology, enhancing IEM and headphone performance with benefits like a 15µsec mechanical response and a diaphragm 95 times stiffer than plastic.

"It’s got a NOS fogger system and a T4 Turbo, Dominic."

The Diablo 2 offers three power modes: Normal, Turbo, and Nitro, boasting a 19.2V maximum output. iEMatch technology removes background noise and increases usable volume range. Accommodating various headphones, it features 6.3mm and 4.4mm outputs, with a 3.5mm to 6.35mm adapter included.

Ruling all Bluetooth codec and music formats.

Featuring Bluetooth 5.4 technology, the Diablo 2 supports aptX Lossless, aptX Adaptive, aptX, LDACTM, LHDC/HWA, AAC, and SBC. It uses Qualcomm’s QCC518x Bluetooth audio chip, qualifying to Bluetooth 5.4. Dual Core Burr Brown chipset provides Bit-Perfect DSD and PCM support up to 768kHz, DSD512, and Full MQA decoding.

Wings of Inferno.

The Diablo 2 comes with four wings for customizable positioning—horizontally like a desktop DAC/amp or vertically for space-saving. Twenty-two rails improve cooling, with eight compatible with Diablo wings for desktop stand use.

Devil in the details.

The front panel features a Volume Lock switch, preventing accidental adjustments. The back panel includes a mode selection and Bluetooth pairing switch, along with two USB-C ports for audio and charging.

Sound So Moving. Even the Devil May Cry.

Diablo 2 features PureWave, Servoless DirectDrive, OptimaLoop, and Advanced Jitter Reduction Technology, delivering exceptionally pure, detailed, and emotionally touching sound. PureWave’s full balanced dual-mono circuitry elevates clarity, while OptimaLoop refines gain control and reduces distortion.

Diablo’s Energy Sources

The Diablo 2 can be powered by battery or mains. Battery power provides ultra-clean and stable DC current, while the iPower2 power supply with Active Noise Cancellation II cancels out EMI and RFI noise. A step-up converter ensures high linearity and ultra-low noise for less efficient headphones.

Accessories for Diablo 2

Diablo 2 comes with various accessories, including the iPower 2 power supply, a USB-C cable, a USB-C-to-A adapter, a TOSLINK optical adapter, a 3.5mm to 6.3mm headphone adapter, and an iTraveller carrying case—all included with the product.
