IFI AUDIO ZEN DAC 3

With the ZEN V3, Ifi Audio presents a new version of its successful ZEN series. The brand's ambition is still to offer a digital/analog converter offering exceptional performance at the lowest possible price. This V3 version builds on the success of its predecessor, while integrating a Burr-Brown DAC chip capable of supporting a 768kHz sampling rate.

IFI AUDIO ZEN DAC V3 : A high-quality DAC

The heart of the Zen V3 is a Burr-Brown DAC chip supporting a sampling rate up to 768 kHz, DSD512 and capable of decoding MQA files. Moreover, thanks to the Burr-Brown chip, the manufacturer's True Native architecture enables "bit-perfect" transmission, ensuring sound reproduction as close as possible to the original recording. Furthermore, Zen V3 is equipped with an ultra-quiet, ultra-clean audiophile-grade power supply, featuring Active Noise Cancellation II technology that cancels out all incoming EMI and RFI noise.

IFI AUDIO ZEN DAC V3 : Flexibility in use

Ifi Audio's Zen V3 is designed to be as flexible as possible. Thus, in addition to the two headphone outputs (balanced and unbalanced) on the front panel, there's a switch on the back offering volume control bypass. This allows the Zen V3 to be used directly with active speakers, or connected as an input to an amplifier. Finally, the Zen V3 can be powered via the USB-C input for easy cable management, but if you decide to power it via a DC jack, then the USB-C input becomes capable of receiving data.
