Enhance the audio quality of your everyday experience with the ZEN Air DAC. Every digital audio device comes with a built-in DAC, but the ZEN Air surpasses these standard DACs by delivering high-quality sound. It's like upgrading from a regular TV to an 8K Ultra HD TV, but for your audio!
Not only does the ZEN Air function as a DAC, but it also doubles as a headphone amplifier, making it a great starting point for audio enthusiasts. Simply connect it to your computer, gaming console, tablet, or smartphone using a USB cable. Then, plug your headphones into the front headphone jack or connect your speakers to the rear RCA jacks. If you already have an amplifier, the ZEN Air can be used as a pure DAC with that setup.
Power Match technology adjusts the amplification level of the ZEN Air to match your headphones, ensuring optimal sound quality. The amplification level measures the loudness of the audio source in decibels (dB).
If you want to fine-tune the bass to your liking or match it with your headphones, the XBass+ feature allows you to adjust the bass accordingly.
Unlike most DACs that utilize digital volume control, the ZEN Air utilizes analog volume control. This means that when you lower the volume, you won't lose any data from the music or soundtrack. In simpler terms, the ZEN Air DAC offers a straightforward way to enjoy clean, high-resolution sound for your everyday listening pleasure.
The ZEN Air is equipped with the OV series operational amplifier, a high-quality component that ensures low noise levels, minimal distortion (0.0001%), and a wide bandwidth. This attention to detail is consistent with other iFi audio products.
