The iFi GO bar is a USB-stick-sized portable USB DAC/amp delivering up to 475mW into 32Ω through 4.4mm balanced and 3.5mm S-Balanced outputs, with a Cirrus Logic DAC for PCM 384kHz, DSD256 and full MQA decoding. It's for travelers who want one-cable power for demanding IEMs and many full-size headphones.
Who the iFi GO bar is for
One-cable travelers: Plugged into a phone or laptop, the USB-stick-sized body works as a complete one-cable travel rig.
Demanding IEMs and full-size headphones: Up to 475mW into 32Ω is enough to drive demanding IEMs and many full-size cans.
Thin recordings and closed-backs that need air: The defeatable XBass+ and XSpace analog circuits are there for exactly those cases.
Balanced-cable owners: Both 4.4mm balanced and 3.5mm S-Balanced outputs are built in.
Hi-res and MQA listeners: The Cirrus Logic DAC handles PCM 384kHz and DSD256 with full MQA decoding.

iFi GO bar vs similar options
vs iBasso DC Elite: iBasso's DC Elite uses a ROHM BD34301EKV DAC, and its 3.5 mm single-ended jack doubles as coax out; the GO bar's 3.5mm is S-Balanced, and it adds XBass+/XSpace analog processing.
vs xDuoo XD05 Basic 2: A brick-format portable with a CS43131 DAC, Bluetooth 5.4 with LE Audio, a socketed swappable op-amp and a 3000mAh battery; the GO bar is the USB-stick-sized, one-cable option.
vs Questyle M18i: Questyle's M18i also runs over lossless Bluetooth, so it can work without a cable to the phone; the GO bar is the USB-stick-sized option with XBass+ and XSpace analog circuits.
