About iFi AUDIO ZEN DAC Signature V2

It's time to elevate your audio experience with the sleek and sophisticated ZEN DAC Signature V2 Desktop DAC and Headphone Amplifier. This high-tech device is designed to deliver a superior, high-quality sound that audiophiles crave. Its compact design makes it a perfect addition to your desktop setup, enhancing your audio without occupying too much space.

The ZEN DAC Signature V2 is more than just a stylish accessory. It's an advanced audio device that has been upgraded to offer an even purer performance than its predecessor. It features a 16 core XMOS chip, a significant upgrade from the original 8 core, providing a more powerful digital engine for your audio needs. The enhanced clock circuitry further refines the device's performance, ensuring a distortion-free, pure audio experience.

This device is not just about power; it's about precision. The ZEN DAC Signature V2 incorporates boutique parts and circuitry inspired by the high-end iFi Pro range. It boasts a fully-symmetrical, true differential balanced dual-mono signal stage with direct signal paths for optimal signal purity. The new low jitter crystal clock provides over 20dB better noise reduction, ensuring a blissfully quiet operation wherever it's used.

The ZEN DAC Signature V2's digital stage retains its True Native DAC architecture, delivering Bit-Perfect up to 32-bit/384kHz, native DSD up to DSD256, and DXD. The iFi-programmed XMOS chip processes data received at the USB input, contributing to the exemplary handling of digital audio signals as they are received, processed, and converted to analogue form.

The ZEN DAC Signature V2 is also a full MQA decoder, thanks to the processing power of the new 16 core XMOS chip. This means you can play back MQA audio files and streams, delivering the sound of the original master recording. The LED indicator provides provenance to ensure that the sound is identical to that of the source material.

The ZEN DAC Signature V2 offers confident connections with accurate, jitter-free data transfer from your source device. The USB Type B input is asynchronous, regulated solely by the device's specialized audio clock circuitry. A pair of RCA sockets provide a single-ended connection to an amp, and a Pentaconn 4.4mm output enables balanced signal transfer between compact products.

The ZEN DAC Signature V2 is a versatile device, with outputs that can be switched between 'variable' and 'fixed', allowing you to control the volume of powered speakers or bypass the device for a 'straight wire' connection from the digital source to the analogue amplifier.

The ZEN DAC Signature V2 is designed to work seamlessly with both the ZEN CAN Signature 6XX and the new ZEN CAN Signature HFM model. When used together, these devices create a fantastic, desktop-sized headphone system for both digital and analogue sources.

Experience the difference with the ZEN DAC Signature V2 Desktop DAC and Headphone Amplifier. It's not just an audio device; it's a game-changer for your audio experience.
