What Hi-Fi? have praised the iFi Go Link Max for its punchy, detailed sound, robust bass and offering a notable upgrade from its predecessor, the iFi Go Link. They praise the Go Link Max's dual ES9219 DAC chips and its support for hi-res audio up to 32-bit/384kHz and DSD256. As well as the inclusion of a balanced 4.4mm headphone output. In their review they write how the Go Link Max enhances tracks with energy and clarity, while its balanced output can add punch and drive to music. They conclude:
"The iFi Go Link Max is an impressive performer at this affordable price point, providing noticeable extra helpings of detail, dynamic contrast and punch to your tunes and acting as a small but talented accompaniment to your wired headphones of choice. Some users may prefer the more agile, light-footed approach of the standard iFi Go Link, but the Max brings sufficient sonic benefits – plus the addition of a potentially handy balanced headphone output – to justify its slightly higher price tag."
