All of the buttons give reassuring clicky feedback, the volume knob is smooth and beautifully machined, and the ports are tight and feel well manufactured. There are a lot of little details to appreciate on the Zen DAC 3, from the various textures of the brushed or dimpled metal surfaces to the Sunlit Bronze accents, buttons, and knobs to the dust covers on the RCA inputs on the back of the device.<\/p>\n<p>A lot of design elements were well considered and it shows.<\/p>\n<p>There are rubber feet on the bottom of the device, another nice detail that will save the finish on the bottom. It\u2019s smart because those feet provide extra grip on the bottom as you plug\/unplug cables. Additionally, the unit is so light that those rubber feet will keep the DAC from moving around on your desk due to cable movement if you\u2019re fidgety while listening to your tunes.<\/p>\n<p>Lastly, when we talk \u201cbuild,\u201d the input\/outputs are intuitively placed. There is I\/O on the back of the Zen DAC 3, but it makes sense to have outputs there because they connect to larger external devices than a pair of headphones.<\/p>\n<h2 class=\"article-body__section\" id=\"section-ifi-zen-dac-3-features\"><span>iFi Zen DAC 3: Features<\/span><\/h2>\n<figure class=\"van-image-figure inline-layout\" data-bordeaux-image-check=\"\">\n<div class=\"image-full-width-wrapper\">\n<div class=\"image-widthsetter\" style=\"max-width:1920px;\">\n<p class=\"vanilla-image-block\" style=\"padding-top:56.25%;\"><picture><source type=\"image\/webp\" srcset=\"https:\/\/cdn.mos.cms.futurecdn.net\/vqPzX3uxFNQRP4NmhswXMB-320-80.jpg.webp 320w, https:\/\/cdn.mos.cms.futurecdn.net\/vqPzX3uxFNQRP4NmhswXMB-480-80.jpg.webp 480w, https:\/\/cdn.mos.cms.futurecdn.net\/vqPzX3uxFNQRP4NmhswXMB-650-80.jpg.webp 650w, https:\/\/cdn.mos.cms.futurecdn.net\/vqPzX3uxFNQRP4NmhswXMB-970-80.jpg.webp 970w, https:\/\/cdn.mos.cms.futurecdn.net\/vqPzX3uxFNQRP4NmhswXMB-1024-80.jpg.webp 1024w, https:\/\/cdn.mos.cms.futurecdn.net\/vqPzX3uxFNQRP4NmhswXMB-1200-80.jpg.webp 1200w\" sizes=\"(min-width: 1000px) 970px, calc(100vw - 40px)\"\/><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/cdn.mos.cms.futurecdn.net\/vqPzX3uxFNQRP4NmhswXMB-320-80.jpg\" alt=\"iFi Zen DAC 3 desktop DAC\/Amp\" srcset=\"https:\/\/cdn.mos.cms.futurecdn.net\/vqPzX3uxFNQRP4NmhswXMB-320-80.jpg 320w, https:\/\/cdn.mos.cms.futurecdn.net\/vqPzX3uxFNQRP4NmhswXMB-480-80.jpg 480w, https:\/\/cdn.mos.cms.futurecdn.net\/vqPzX3uxFNQRP4NmhswXMB-650-80.jpg 650w, https:\/\/cdn.mos.cms.futurecdn.net\/vqPzX3uxFNQRP4NmhswXMB-970-80.jpg 970w, https:\/\/cdn.mos.cms.futurecdn.net\/vqPzX3uxFNQRP4NmhswXMB-1024-80.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/cdn.mos.cms.futurecdn.net\/vqPzX3uxFNQRP4NmhswXMB-1200-80.jpg 1200w\" sizes=\"(min-width: 1000px) 970px, calc(100vw - 40px)\" loading=\"lazy\" data-original-mos=\"https:\/\/cdn.mos.cms.futurecdn.net\/vqPzX3uxFNQRP4NmhswXMB.jpg\" data-pin-media=\"https:\/\/cdn.mos.cms.futurecdn.net\/vqPzX3uxFNQRP4NmhswXMB.jpg\"\/><\/picture><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div><figcaption itemprop=\"caption description\" class=\" inline-layout\"><span class=\"credit\" itemprop=\"copyrightHolder\">(Image credit: Tshaka Armstrong)<\/span><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>The Zen DAC 3 has two headphone jacks in the front. One balanced 4.4mm input pushing 390mW at 64ohms, and one 6.3mm input pushing 210mW@32ohms. Inside the box, you\u2019ll get a 3.5mm to 6.3mm adapter since there\u2019s no input for one of the most common types of audio interfaces. Also on the front are the Power Match and XBass Plus buttons. Power Match provides a gain boost for power-hungry headphones, while XBass is iFi\u2019s signature analog bass enhancer.<\/p>\n<p>That beautiful analog volume nob on the front also doubles as an audio format LED that glows in seven different colors indicating the audio format and sampling frequency being received from the audio source.<\/p>\n<p>The rear of the unit is where you\u2019ll find the USB-C input with overvoltage protection, a DC 5V input, another balanced 4.4mm out (2V-6.2V max variable, 4.2 fixed), and RCA outputs (1V-3.3V max variable, 2.1V fixed). The output impedance on those is 200ohm and 100ohms, respectively. The 4.4mm and RCA outputs allow you to connect this DAC\/Amp as a preamp to another amp or active speakers. Since you have these I\/O options, it was also smart for iFi to add a fixed or variable output gain switch to the back of the unit.<\/p>\n<p>All of these outputs and their features are powered by a bit-perfect DSD and DXD Burr Brown DAC, which supports PCM up to 768kHz, DSD up to DSD 512, and full MQA decoding.<\/p>\n<h2 class=\"article-body__section\" id=\"section-ifi-zen-dac-3-sound-quality\"><span>iFi Zen DAC 3: Sound quality<\/span><\/h2>\n<figure class=\"van-image-figure inline-layout\" data-bordeaux-image-check=\"\">\n<div class=\"image-full-width-wrapper\">\n<div class=\"image-widthsetter\" style=\"max-width:1920px;\">\n<p class=\"vanilla-image-block\" style=\"padding-top:56.25%;\"><picture><source type=\"image\/webp\" srcset=\"https:\/\/cdn.mos.cms.futurecdn.net\/jYkj5nDuvcaNsY8STHNd28-320-80.jpg.webp 320w, https:\/\/cdn.mos.cms.futurecdn.net\/jYkj5nDuvcaNsY8STHNd28-480-80.jpg.webp 480w, https:\/\/cdn.mos.cms.futurecdn.net\/jYkj5nDuvcaNsY8STHNd28-650-80.jpg.webp 650w, https:\/\/cdn.mos.cms.futurecdn.net\/jYkj5nDuvcaNsY8STHNd28-970-80.jpg.webp 970w, https:\/\/cdn.mos.cms.futurecdn.net\/jYkj5nDuvcaNsY8STHNd28-1024-80.jpg.webp 1024w, https:\/\/cdn.mos.cms.futurecdn.net\/jYkj5nDuvcaNsY8STHNd28-1200-80.jpg.webp 1200w\" sizes=\"(min-width: 1000px) 970px, calc(100vw - 40px)\"\/><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/cdn.mos.cms.futurecdn.net\/jYkj5nDuvcaNsY8STHNd28-320-80.jpg\" alt=\"iFi Zen DAC 3 desktop DAC\/Amp\" srcset=\"https:\/\/cdn.mos.cms.futurecdn.net\/jYkj5nDuvcaNsY8STHNd28-320-80.jpg 320w, https:\/\/cdn.mos.cms.futurecdn.net\/jYkj5nDuvcaNsY8STHNd28-480-80.jpg 480w, https:\/\/cdn.mos.cms.futurecdn.net\/jYkj5nDuvcaNsY8STHNd28-650-80.jpg 650w, https:\/\/cdn.mos.cms.futurecdn.net\/jYkj5nDuvcaNsY8STHNd28-970-80.jpg 970w, https:\/\/cdn.mos.cms.futurecdn.net\/jYkj5nDuvcaNsY8STHNd28-1024-80.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/cdn.mos.cms.futurecdn.net\/jYkj5nDuvcaNsY8STHNd28-1200-80.jpg 1200w\" sizes=\"(min-width: 1000px) 970px, calc(100vw - 40px)\" loading=\"lazy\" data-original-mos=\"https:\/\/cdn.mos.cms.futurecdn.net\/jYkj5nDuvcaNsY8STHNd28.jpg\" data-pin-media=\"https:\/\/cdn.mos.cms.futurecdn.net\/jYkj5nDuvcaNsY8STHNd28.jpg\"\/><\/picture><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div><figcaption itemprop=\"caption description\" class=\" inline-layout\"><span class=\"credit\" itemprop=\"copyrightHolder\">(Image credit: Tshaka Armstrong)<\/span><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>Sound quality places the iFi GO blu and GO bar Kensei among my favorite DACs, both of which use Cirrus Logic chipsets, but the Zen DAC 3 utilizes a Burr Brown DAC whose sound quality differs from the former two. The word that best describes the Burr Brown chip is \u201csmooth.\u201d Its tuning isn\u2019t as \u201ctransparent\u201d as the Kensei, but it makes the listening experience with the Zen DAC 3 fun and engaging.<\/p>\n<p>One of my regular test tracks, \u201cMoanin\u2019,\u201d has some horn sections that can be quite harsh, but the Zen DAC 3 makes those sections easy to listen to as its smooth top end mitigates the shrill blasts from the brass.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>If you want a break from the smoother curve in your lower frequencies, the XBass Plus analog mode restores the growl back to bass and sub-bass. But this isn\u2019t some muddy, compressed digital filter. The low end boost is tight and controlled. Activating this makes listening to bass-heavy tracks quite enjoyable, especially if you\u2019re using flatter headphones like a pair of Planar Magnetics. Without XBass Plus active, and using more balanced or flat headphones or IEMs, tracks like Skrillex\u2019s \u201cMumbai Power,\u201d with its deep bass and sub-bass, lose a bit of their bite.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Despite being smooth, you still get great stereo imaging, with a wonderful feel for the instruments and where they\u2019re layered in the sonic image. And those images will always feel nice and full thanks to the Power Match feature, which boosts gain and provided enough output for my Sennheiser HD660S2 and HiFiMan HE-4XX that, depending on the track, I never needed to push that analog volume higher than 50% to 75% of its max. For my IEMs, with Power Match off, I only need to turn the volume nob to 25% of its max output for nice, full audio.<\/p>\n<p>The Zen DAC 3 is an all-around great DAC to connect to your laptop or desktop for warm, smooth sound that doesn\u2019t compromise mid-range vocals or allow harsher sounds in the higher frequencies to become grating. I\u2019d definitely categorize this as \u201cfun and entertaining\u201d as far as DACs and active listening go. It&#8217;s great for listening to music at a desk or watching movies.<\/p>\n<h2 class=\"article-body__section\" id=\"section-ifi-zen-dac-3-competition\"><span>iFi Zen DAC 3: Competition<\/span><\/h2>\n<figure class=\"van-image-figure inline-layout\" data-bordeaux-image-check=\"\">\n<div class=\"image-full-width-wrapper\">\n<div class=\"image-widthsetter\" style=\"max-width:1080px;\">\n<p class=\"vanilla-image-block\" style=\"padding-top:100.00%;\"><picture><source type=\"image\/webp\" srcset=\"https:\/\/cdn.mos.cms.futurecdn.net\/SK6itwyrzzJ8GVEQ2cmGJ8-320-80.jpg.webp 320w, https:\/\/cdn.mos.cms.futurecdn.net\/SK6itwyrzzJ8GVEQ2cmGJ8-480-80.jpg.webp 480w, https:\/\/cdn.mos.cms.futurecdn.net\/SK6itwyrzzJ8GVEQ2cmGJ8-650-80.jpg.webp 650w, https:\/\/cdn.mos.cms.futurecdn.net\/SK6itwyrzzJ8GVEQ2cmGJ8-970-80.jpg.webp 970w, https:\/\/cdn.mos.cms.futurecdn.net\/SK6itwyrzzJ8GVEQ2cmGJ8-1024-80.jpg.webp 1024w, https:\/\/cdn.mos.cms.futurecdn.net\/SK6itwyrzzJ8GVEQ2cmGJ8-1200-80.jpg.webp 1200w\" sizes=\"(min-width: 1000px) 970px, calc(100vw - 40px)\"\/><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/cdn.mos.cms.futurecdn.net\/SK6itwyrzzJ8GVEQ2cmGJ8-320-80.jpg\" alt=\"Fiio Audio K7 desktop DAC\/Amp\" srcset=\"https:\/\/cdn.mos.cms.futurecdn.net\/SK6itwyrzzJ8GVEQ2cmGJ8-320-80.jpg 320w, https:\/\/cdn.mos.cms.futurecdn.net\/SK6itwyrzzJ8GVEQ2cmGJ8-480-80.jpg 480w, https:\/\/cdn.mos.cms.futurecdn.net\/SK6itwyrzzJ8GVEQ2cmGJ8-650-80.jpg 650w, https:\/\/cdn.mos.cms.futurecdn.net\/SK6itwyrzzJ8GVEQ2cmGJ8-970-80.jpg 970w, https:\/\/cdn.mos.cms.futurecdn.net\/SK6itwyrzzJ8GVEQ2cmGJ8-1024-80.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/cdn.mos.cms.futurecdn.net\/SK6itwyrzzJ8GVEQ2cmGJ8-1200-80.jpg 1200w\" sizes=\"(min-width: 1000px) 970px, calc(100vw - 40px)\" loading=\"lazy\" data-original-mos=\"https:\/\/cdn.mos.cms.futurecdn.net\/SK6itwyrzzJ8GVEQ2cmGJ8.jpg\" data-pin-media=\"https:\/\/cdn.mos.cms.futurecdn.net\/SK6itwyrzzJ8GVEQ2cmGJ8.jpg\"\/><\/picture><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div><figcaption itemprop=\"caption description\" class=\" inline-layout\"><span class=\"credit\" itemprop=\"copyrightHolder\">(Image credit: Fiio Audio)<\/span><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>There are a few alternatives to the Zen DAC 3, but there are trade-offs. Many use different USB standards, making mobile phone connectivity a pain. For example, the Fiio K7 and Topping DX3 Pro Plus are both great options but utilize USB-B connections. On the upside, you\u2019ll get coax and optical connectivity. The DX3 Pro Plus even has a built-in screen.<\/p>\n<p>Then there\u2019s the Schiit Magni, which does offer a USB-C connection. Look at the internal DAC option, which will run you $189 and give you many of the features of the Zen DAC 3. The downside to this one is the headphone cable connectivity options. On the front, you get only one \u00bc\u201d, aka 6.35mm, single-ended jack. No balanced 3.5mm is available, so you\u2019ll have to use an adapter. It is worth checking out.<\/p>\n<h3 class=\"article-body__section\" id=\"section-ifi-zen-dac-3-should-you-buy-it\"><span>iFi Zen DAC 3: Should you buy it?<\/span><\/h3>\n<figure class=\"van-image-figure inline-layout\" data-bordeaux-image-check=\"\">\n<div class=\"image-full-width-wrapper\">\n<div class=\"image-widthsetter\" style=\"max-width:1920px;\">\n<p class=\"vanilla-image-block\" style=\"padding-top:56.25%;\"><picture><source type=\"image\/webp\" srcset=\"https:\/\/cdn.mos.cms.futurecdn.net\/UkWPkThACKqQ4MJHPE8ybA-320-80.jpg.webp 320w, https:\/\/cdn.mos.cms.futurecdn.net\/UkWPkThACKqQ4MJHPE8ybA-480-80.jpg.webp 480w, https:\/\/cdn.mos.cms.futurecdn.net\/UkWPkThACKqQ4MJHPE8ybA-650-80.jpg.webp 650w, https:\/\/cdn.mos.cms.futurecdn.net\/UkWPkThACKqQ4MJHPE8ybA-970-80.jpg.webp 970w, https:\/\/cdn.mos.cms.futurecdn.net\/UkWPkThACKqQ4MJHPE8ybA-1024-80.jpg.webp 1024w, https:\/\/cdn.mos.cms.futurecdn.net\/UkWPkThACKqQ4MJHPE8ybA-1200-80.jpg.webp 1200w\" sizes=\"(min-width: 1000px) 970px, calc(100vw - 40px)\"\/><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/cdn.mos.cms.futurecdn.net\/UkWPkThACKqQ4MJHPE8ybA-320-80.jpg\" alt=\"iFi Zen DAC 3 desktop DAC\/Amp\" srcset=\"https:\/\/cdn.mos.cms.futurecdn.net\/UkWPkThACKqQ4MJHPE8ybA-320-80.jpg 320w, https:\/\/cdn.mos.cms.futurecdn.net\/UkWPkThACKqQ4MJHPE8ybA-480-80.jpg 480w, https:\/\/cdn.mos.cms.futurecdn.net\/UkWPkThACKqQ4MJHPE8ybA-650-80.jpg 650w, https:\/\/cdn.mos.cms.futurecdn.net\/UkWPkThACKqQ4MJHPE8ybA-970-80.jpg 970w, https:\/\/cdn.mos.cms.futurecdn.net\/UkWPkThACKqQ4MJHPE8ybA-1024-80.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/cdn.mos.cms.futurecdn.net\/UkWPkThACKqQ4MJHPE8ybA-1200-80.jpg 1200w\" sizes=\"(min-width: 1000px) 970px, calc(100vw - 40px)\" loading=\"lazy\" data-original-mos=\"https:\/\/cdn.mos.cms.futurecdn.net\/UkWPkThACKqQ4MJHPE8ybA.jpg\" data-pin-media=\"https:\/\/cdn.mos.cms.futurecdn.net\/UkWPkThACKqQ4MJHPE8ybA.jpg\"\/><\/picture><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div><figcaption itemprop=\"caption description\" class=\" inline-layout\"><span class=\"credit\" itemprop=\"copyrightHolder\">(Image credit: Tshaka Armstrong)<\/span><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p><strong>You should buy the Zen DAC 3 if&#8230;<\/strong><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>You want a capable laptop\/mobile phone\/desktop DAC<\/li>\n<li>You want a DAC that can power headphones or active speakers<\/li>\n<li>You want quality without breaking the bank<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><strong>You shouldn&#8217;t buy the Zen DAC 3 if&#8230;<\/strong><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>You want Bluetooth connectivity<\/li>\n<li>You want coaxial\/optical audio connectivity<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>For a semi-mobile DAC that produces smooth sound and has some great connectivity options, the Zen DAC 3 is well worth its price tag!
