ZEN One Signature is a dedicated Digital-to-Analog Converter (DAC) that acts as a central hub for all your digital audio devices at home. It seamlessly connects to various devices such as smartphones, tablets, PCs, Macs, disc players, audio servers, televisions, and gaming consoles.
Unlike other DACs, ZEN One Signature lacks a built-in headphone amplifier and volume control, making it ideal for connecting to existing audio setups. It supports a wide range of high-resolution formats, including DSD256, PCM384, MQA384kHz, and Bluetooth 96kHz.
The DAC offers high-resolution Bluetooth streaming with support for codecs like LDAC, HWA/LHDC, aptX Adaptive/HD/LL, and AAC, ensuring excellent audio quality up to 96kHz. It also features USB audio capability, utilizing a powerful 16-Core 2000MIPS XMOS microcontroller with low latency, allowing for MQA decoding.
ZEN One Signature provides a fully balanced 4.4mm output and boasts a sleek design. Its prominent antenna ensures extended Bluetooth range, while the enhanced codec support includes aptX HD, aptX Adaptive, LDAC, and HWA/LHDC.
With True Native high-resolution DAC, ZEN One Signature supports PCM up to 32-bit/384kHz and native DSD. Its upgraded GMT femtosecond clocks and customizable digital filter effectively eliminate jitter and digital distortion. Additionally, the DAC offers optical and coaxial S/PDIF digital outputs supporting 32-bit/192kHz PCM and MQA formats.
The Signature series of ZEN One includes special enhancements such as a low jitter quartz crystal for precise timing, a powerful 16-core XMOS microcontroller with low latency, C0G capacitors for superior linearity, MELF resistors ensuring high precision and low noise, and top-notch Taiyo Yuden and Murata inductors.
