iFi ZEN DAC 3

The iFi ZEN DAC 3 is a multi-award-winning desktop USB DAC and headphone amplifier that brings genuine high-fidelity sound to your desk. The third-generation ZEN DAC pairs iFi's Burr-Brown True Native chipset with a fully balanced circuit, so your headphones and powered speakers reveal detail that built-in computer audio simply can't. Plug-and-play over USB-C, it's the easy upgrade every desktop system deserves.

True Native hi-res

The Burr-Brown DAC handles PCM up to 384kHz and native DSD256 bit-perfectly, keeping your music exactly as the artist intended — from everyday streams to your best hi-res files.

Balanced, and built to drive

A balanced 4.4mm output joins the 6.3mm headphone jack up front, with balanced 4.4mm and RCA line-outs on the back. PowerMatch adjusts gain to match anything from sensitive IEMs to demanding over-ear headphones — cleanly and quietly.

Bass you feel, not mud

iFi's analogue TrueBass adds real low-end weight without clouding the midrange, perfect for open-backs and IEMs that need a little extra floor. It's switchable and stays purely in the analogue domain.
