iFi Audio ZEN Air DAC: Elevate Your Sound

Introducing the ZEN Air DAC from iFi Audio, a stunning D/A converter and headphone amplifier that brings exceptional audio quality to your home. Developed with the advanced technology of the acclaimed ZEN DAC series, this device is tailored to reach a wider audience of music enthusiasts without compromising on ease of use and sound quality.

Why Choose ZEN Air?

In this price range, digital volume control is commonly used, leading to a significant loss of resolution at lower volumes. iFi Audio addresses this issue by incorporating an expensive analog volume control in the ZEN Air DAC, ensuring your music is always presented in the highest possible high-res resolution.

Unlike the more expensive ZEN DAC, the ZEN Air DAC features a durable plastic casing while maintaining the iconic ZEN design. Recognizing that many music lovers do not utilize the more expensive fully balanced technology, iFi Audio has opted for a high-quality single-ended audio circuit. The use of top-tier semiconductors, consistent with their premium series, ensures that you never overpay for technology you don’t need.

ZEN Air, Your Dream DAC

The ZEN Air DAC is equipped with a beautifully high-quality bit-perfect DAC from Burr-Brown, known for their exceptionally musical sound quality. Supporting a maximum resolution of 32bit-384kHz in PCM and native DSD up to DSD256, this DAC also plays MQA files, making the most of the Tidal Master collection with a Tidal Hi-Fi subscription.

Easily connect the ZEN Air DAC via USB 2.0 or USB 3.0 port on your PC, laptop, or mobile device. Connect it to an analog amplifier or a set of active speakers using the RCA line-out, or plug your headphones into the 6.35mm jack, and enjoy music in significantly better quality than before. Truly a ZEN experience.
