ifi Zen Stream 3 audiophile streamer

Hi-Res Streaming Simplified
The ZEN Stream 3 serves as a high-performance bridge, bringing lossless wireless audio to your existing DAC or amplifier. By supporting PCM 384kHz and DSD256, it ensures that your digital library is transmitted with absolute transparency. It removes the need for clunky computer setups, allowing you to stream directly from your favourite services with bit-perfect accuracy.

Studio-Grade K2 Technology
A standout feature is the inclusion of JVCKENWOOD’s K2 Technology, which breathes life into sterile digital files. By reintroducing lost harmonics, it restores the warmth and musicality typically associated with analogue masters. This process ensures your music sounds richer and more natural without artificially altering the original sample rate.

Optimised Nexis Connectivity
Setting up network audio is often a headache, but the new iFi Nexis app streamlines the entire process. The integrated IoT chip ensures a stable, fast connection to your home Wi-Fi for immediate playback. Once configured, your smartphone becomes a powerful remote, giving you full control over your music queue and device settings from across the room.

Purist Exclusive Modes
To ensure the lowest possible jitter, the ZEN Stream 3 features unique Exclusive Modes. These settings allow you to dedicate the entire operating system to a single task, such as Tidal or ROON, by shutting down unnecessary background software processes. This “purist” approach eliminates digital interference, providing the cleanest possible signal path to your output.

Advanced Noise Suppression
The digital outputs are engineered to combat the “noise” inherent in many network devices. Utilising Active Noise Cancellation (ANC) and iPurifier technology, the ZEN Stream 3 scrubs the USB and Coaxial signals of distortion. Combined with a femto-precision clock, these features ensure that your DAC receives a rock-solid, jitter-free data stream for improved timing and clarity.

Seamless Collection Integration
Designed to perfectly partner the ZEN DAC 3, this streamer shares the same updated aesthetic and compact footprint. It fits effortlessly into minimalist desktop systems or professional hi-fi racks without adding unnecessary clutter. Whether you are using the Ethernet port for maximum stability or Wi-Fi for convenience, the ZEN Stream 3 completes your digital ecosystem in style.
