iFi ZEN DAC 3: Unveiling Exceptional Audio Fidelity with Versatile Connectivity and PowerMatch Technology

iFi Audio has crafted the all-new ZEN DAC 3, a digital-to-analog converter designed to elevate the listening experience for audio enthusiasts. This meticulously engineered device boasts a range of technical advancements, making it a compelling choice for those seeking exceptional audio fidelity.

Versatile Output Options

The ZEN DAC 3 transcends the limitations of a typical DAC by incorporating a versatile output stage. Beyond the standard RCA jacks, it offers dedicated headphone outputs in both single-ended 6.3 mm and balanced 4.4 mm formats. The 4.4 mm jack cleverly doubles as a balanced output for connecting to other high-fidelity components, maximizing system flexibility. For seamless integration into existing setups, the ZEN DAC 3 features a switchable output mode, transforming it from a fixed-level DAC to a variable-level preamplifier.

Advanced Digital Processing

At the core of the ZEN DAC 3 lies a potent combination of processing muscle and high-fidelity conversion. An XMOS chip handles incoming digital signals via the USB-C input, preparing them for the Burr-Brown DAC chip, renowned for its True Native architecture. This potent duo effortlessly decodes high-resolution audio formats, including PCM files up to 24-bit/384 kHz and DSD up to DSD256. For the adventurous listener, iFi provides a variety of downloadable firmware options, allowing for experimentation with different digital filters and tailoring the sound to individual preferences.

Optimized Headphone Amplification

The ZEN DAC 3 caters to a wide range of headphones with its thoroughly designed headphone amplifier section. The innovative PowerMatch feature allows users to precisely adjust the gain level based on their specific headphones. This ensures optimal performance, minimizing background noise with high-sensitivity headphones and providing ample power for demanding models. Effortless control over PowerMatch is provided by a conveniently located button on the front panel.

Enhanced Bass Experience

Furthermore, the ZEN DAC 3 incorporates iFi's signature XBass function. This ingenious analog circuit subtly enhances low frequencies, resulting in a richer and more immersive bass experience without introducing unwanted coloration.


By replacing generic terms with more specific language, emphasizing the technical aspects, and highlighting unique features like the dual-purpose 4.4 mm output and PowerMatch, this revised text offers a more engaging and informative description of the iFi ZEN DAC 3.
