Amazing small headphone amp.
"I am shocked that the unit is small but very powerful. 14 watt@ 16ohm is enough to drive 1266/susvara."

Knows no fear
The Pro iCAN Signature is the all new upgraded edition of the original Pro iCAN. The Signature edition builds on the strengths of the Pro iCAN and features even more ultra-grade audiophile components designed to take your listening to a higher plane than ever before. It is a top-of-the-line headphone amplifier that is capable of driving anything and everything from the most sensitive custom iEMs to the AKG K-1000, the most difficult to drive headphone ever made.
Amp it up to ultra
Enhancements to the Pro iCAN Signature include:
- Revised circuit design incorporates even more ultra-grade audiophile components
- Upgraded power supply circuits to eradicate even more noise and distortion
- Top of the range iPower Elite offboard AC/DC power supply included
- Hand-selected and matched tubes in the output stage
- 4.4mm Balanced-headphone output
- New aluminum remote control
Beautifully balanced Pro power
The Pro iCAN Signature sports an end-to-end fully differential balanced circuit design that delivers ultra low distortion. This means extraordinary quality with minimal interference and reduced crosstalk. The sound is cleaner, deeper and more dynamic. It is also exceptionally powerful and will drive any headphone on the planet. It boasts balanced output power of >14,000mW and single-ended power output of >4,800mW, plus with variable gain, you can adjust the Pro iCAN Signature to drive your headphone of choice.
To tube or not to tube…?
Or to Tube+? That is the question.
With the Pro iCAN Signature you can enjoy the sound of solid-state or tubes in one single package. For some of your recordings, and depending on whether you are listening through headphones or speakers, you may prefer the ‘lively’ feel of solid-state or for others, the more ‘luxurious’ feel of Tube or Tube+. The choice is yours at the flick of a switch in real time.
Signature by name…
Just like the original, it boasts XBass and 3D Holographic settings so that you can calibrate sound to fit your system and personal taste.
- XBass analogue ‘bass boost’ that enhances the low frequencies without muddying the mid-range.
- 3D Holographic for Headphones undoes the negative sonic impact of listening to recordings that were originally created for loudspeakers.
- 3D Holographic for Loudspeaker Systems corrects the spatial distortion and restores the natural soundstage.
The Pro iCAN Signature wouldn’t be the same without iFi Audio's signature sonic tweaks.
Get connected
The Pro iCAN Signature boasts a plethora of fully balanced and single-ended connections. Headphone connections include the new 4.4mm Balanced output as well as a fully balanced XLR, a single-ended 6.3mm and unique S-Balanced 3.5mm output. The S-Balanced output cuts distortion by 50% with single-ended headphones connections.
Power is everything.
The Pro iCAN Signature, ships with iFi Audio's flagship iPOWER Elite. Coupled with the re-crafted power supply board which is up to 300% quieter, the music is buttery smooth. Within and without – no stone was left unturned in the quest for the cleanest, purest, power for the Pro iCAN Signature (same for Pro iDSD Signature too!)

iFi Pro iCAN
"Great price for an awesome product! Shipping was exceptionally fast! I couldn't be happier with my Pro iCAN! This is not my first time using HeadAmp, and they never disappoint!"
Excellent
"I have compared it to Ferrum oor stack while both are different I think ican pro sig are best price to performance you can’t go wrong with either"
Endgame amp for me
"I previously bought the iDSD Signature, but it wasn't enough to properly drive some of the hard-to-drive planars like HiFiMan HE6se v2. This iCAN Signature takes it to the next level. If you asked me to quantify this improvement, I'd say it more than doubles the experience. The sound stage opens very wide. The bass makes you feel like you are at a concert. Simply amazing!"
Tu'Be or Not!
"I purchased this unit as an upgrade to my pre Signature Pro iCan unit and right off I must say I could not be more pleased with this purchase! I used my previous unit 90% in tube mode and was very happy with it and was expecting a bit more from this new unit, which it did deliver. However, to run the unit through it's paces I did start listening to it in Solid State mode. A funny thing happened as I was switching between tube mode and solid state I found myself returning to Solid State! My headphone choice is the Sennheiser 800s with balanced cable. This unit just brings those phones to life, the sound is vast, limitless, unstrained yet focussed and delicate when necessary. I listened to several classical pieces but am at a loss to name one outstanding one as they were all superb. I strongly recommend this unit as you get unbelievable flexibility, the tube mode sounds great but the solid state mode is the best I have ever heard headphones sound! Come for the tubes but stay for the transistors!"
