Introducing the iFi Audio ZEN DAC V2: Now with Extra Impact! The iFi Audio ZEN DAC V2 remains the same outstanding hi-res USB DAC/headphone amp but with an added punch. We've taken its digital engine from an 8-core XMOS chip to a formidable 16-core chip. It retains its exceptional affordability while delivering unmatched capabilities. Compact and versatile, it serves as a USB DAC/amp for your work desk and adds a touch of elegance when paired with your favorite active speakers or amplifier at home, all while exceeding expectations for its price point. The iFi Audio ZEN DAC V2 supports PCM and DXD up to 32-bit/384kHz, and it handles DSD256 and MQA with 'bit-perfect' precision, thanks to the True Native Burr-Brown chip design. With its new 16-core technology, it transforms into an MQA Decoder, enabling you to enjoy MQA audio files and streams in all their original master recording glory. An LED indicator shines green or blue to signify decoding and MQA playback, ensuring the utmost audio fidelity. When playing an MQA Studio file, it glows blue, signifying approval from the artist/producer or copyright owner. Gone are the days of rendering MQA via the computer; the ZEN DAC V2 takes care of it all. Plus, an enhanced low jitter, crystal clock guarantees over 20dB better performance, even in noisy environments. Its balanced analog stage design, a rarity at this price point, delivers top-tier sound quality typically found in more expensive models. The iFi Audio ZEN DAC V2 features Pentaconn 4.4mm balanced outputs on both the front and back, alongside the popular 6.3mm headphone socket on the front panel. Experience flexibility like never before with the ability to seamlessly switch between 'variable' and 'fixed' modes. Set it to 'Variable' for pre-amp functionality, ideal for powering an external power amp or active speakers. 'Fixed' mode bypasses the volume control, connecting effortlessly to an external pre-amp or integrated amp. PowerMatch, an adjustable gain setting, ensures a perfect match for your headphones. For high-sensitivity IEMs, leave PowerMatch at its lower setting to enjoy hiss-free listening. And for on/over-ear headphones with lower impedance, press PowerMatch to unlock greater drive. Let's not forget TrueBass, iFi's proprietary technology, delivering a switchable 'bass boost' in the analog domain without relying on DSP. TrueBass enhances the bass response while preserving the mid-range, making it ideal for use with IEMs or open-back headphones that benefit from added low-end presence. The iFi Audio ZEN DAC V2 is your ultimate relaxation companion, offering a supreme audio experience that lets you tune in and truly ZEN out.
