Just add Remote Control

Beneath its classy exterior, the ZEN Stream is a technological streamer-de-force. It has one purpose – to send music simply from the Internet to your DAC with no loss of quality. True hi-res performance of PCM384/DSD256 via WiFi/LAN. Just add your smart device as a remote and away you go. Ease of use + audiophile implementation. Follow our simple set-up guides on YouTube. It is the bee’s knees of Streamers.

Warp speed tech

ZEN Stream is a true ground-up design by iFi — the hardware and software implementation is quite exceptional: Two SuperSpeed USB3.0 ports with Active Noise Cancellation II, S/PDIF out with the iPurifier built-in, iFi software developed with Volumio open-source as the starting point, then coded and optimised by us to achieve the purest streaming software bar none. These are some of the factors behind why the ZEN Stream is at the cutting-edge handling PCM384/DSD256 on LAN and WiFi (802.11n, with 100Mbps on 5Ghz).

Tech savvy

Beneath the unassuming casework sits some serious horsepower in terms of both technologies and components:

• Powerful 64-bit quad-core ARM Cortex microprocessor
• USB and S/PDIF interfaces regulated by femto-precision GMT clock to eradicate jitter
• Active Noise Cancellation II and iPurifier technologies for USB and S/PDIF interfaces respectively
• Intelligent Ethernet switch controller
• High-PSRR, low idle current, low-dropout voltage regulators with soft start
• Synchronous 1.6MHz high-speed precision power supply controller
• C0G capacitors and Taiyo Yuden and Murata low ESR inductors

‘Exclusive’ for your ears only

The ZEN Stream features a fully optimised software platform, from drivers and kernel to applications and user interface, ensuring seamless operation and superb sonic performance.

Its ‘Exclusive’ modes focus on specific functions like ROON Ready, Tidal, NAA, and DLNA streaming, removing unnecessary programs to reduce ‘software jitter’ for pure performance. All-in-one (AIO) mode covers all functions, making the ZEN Stream a master of all.

Superb sound, no matter how you stream

The ZEN Stream’s hi-res audio credentials are top-notch, supporting PCM up to 32-bit/384kHz and DSD up to11.2MHz (DSD256) over Wi-Fi – highly unusual – as well as over Ethernet cable. There are multiple ways in which the device can interface with your music collection or favourite streaming service, depending on the user’s preference, and thanks to the ZEN Stream’s open-source architecture these will expand over time.

Superb quality circuit components

DAC’s your perfect partner

Because the ZEN Stream is a network audio ‘transport’, as opposed to a ‘player’ – it outputs a digital signal rather than an analogue one – it can be combined with whichever DAC (Digital-to-Analogue Converter) the user prefers.

An obvious partner is iFi’s ZEN DAC – an affordable, multi-award-winning USB DAC with balanced circuit design and the same 158x35x100mm aluminium enclosure.
