Headphone.Guru (9 July 2020) reviews the iFi ZEN DAC (in combination with the new iFi ZEN BLUE wireless streamer) :
" I would describe the Zen DAC as a very balanced and neutral sounding player with a hint of warmth and musicality. Sure my Chord Hugo2 is a superior player in terms of overall transparency and drive, but heck, we are talking of a more than 10X cost difference. If you are looking for a super affordable player, I cannot think of a better one for this little! "
" The level of clarity and detail retrieval was simply astounding with this combination... "
" Tonality was in three words: true to life. "
Price - £129 (NZ$259)
