iFi audio Iphono V1 Phono Preamplifier Up for sale IFI iPhone v1 good condition and best price phono at this price range Boxed come with power supply Condition: Used Payment Method: Cash , EFT , Pick up Region/State: (VIC) Victoria/Australia By Guest 3 Comments AUD $300 Date: May 7, 20241 yr
What are you really paying for here: a fair shot at a well-regarded phono stage, or a premium for convenience? At A$300, this sits just above the A$297 median and a touch over the A$299 75th percentile, so it reads as slightly ambitious, but not wildly so for a clean, working example.
That still makes it a sensible buy if you want a compact, respected moving-magnet phono preamp that punches above its size and is still sought after by vinyl listeners. The upside is strongest if it’s genuinely tidy, comes from a careful owner, and includes the original PSU and any boxes or manuals; with older phono gear, those details matter more than cosmetic fuss.
Independent perspective — not a price guarantee. Always verify condition, accessories and provenance before purchase.
iFi Audio is a British hi-fi technology company founded in 2012 by Abbingdon Music Research (AMR), a prestigious manufacturer of high-end electronics based in Southport, England. The venture was conceived as a way to democratize advanced AMR engineering by applying proprietary technologies developed for premium home audio to portable, more affordable devices. This strategic pivot proved remarkably successful, establishing iFi as a bridge between audiophile-grade sound quality and accessible pricing.
The brand specializes in portable and desktop audio components, with a product portfolio exceeding 50 devices spanning DACs, headphone amplifiers, Bluetooth streamers, music players, power conditioners, and cables. Flagship products include the iDSD Micro, Hip DAC, xDSD, and xCAN amplifier, all engineered to deliver high-resolution audio support and studio-quality fidelity in compact form factors. iFi has also gained recognition for innovation in wireless audio, notably with their GO Pods earphones featuring xMEMS technology and their Bluetooth-enabled DAC/amp solutions.
iFi occupies a distinctive mid-to-premium market position, offering audiophile-caliber performance at entry-level to mid-tier pricing. The company sources components globally from Germany, Japan, and the USA, and employs proprietary technologies such as PureWave balanced circuitry to minimize noise and distortion. Rather than competing in the ultra-luxury segment, iFi targets discerning listeners who demand measurable sonic improvement without premium price tags, making it a trusted choice for both portable and desktop audio enthusiasts.
