Now the Zen Blue V2 is set to carry on the tradition of being one of the best, most affordable wireless DACs available. This updated version offers helpful upgrades over its predecessor. It sports an improved Bluetooth® antenna that increases its range by up to 80% for fewer dropouts and interruptions to your music. iFi also gave it some audio upgrades, too, implementing an improved digital clock and a cleaner power supply. More than just a dongle The Zen Blue V2 connects wirelessly to a huge range of sources using Bluetooth 5.0, including smartphones, PCs, Mac® computers, tablets, and more. It supports all current Bluetooth codecs, like aptX®, aptX HD, LDAC, and HWA/LHDC. It can even be updated over-the-air to add new codecs as they come out, making it essentially future-proof. The wireless signal is handled by Qualcomms latest and greatest Bluetooth chip. It does a stellar job of maintaining signal accuracy as it passes those 1s and 0s along to the DAC chip. The beefy ESS Hyperstream Sabre digital-to-analog converter chip uses an upgraded version of iFis GMT (Global Master Timing) clock to keep jitter to a minimum and to improve performance. Versatile connections There are plenty of ways to hook up the Zen Blue V2 to your existing audio gear. It has an unbalanced stereo RCA output for connecting to a receiver or amplifier, as well as a balanced 4.4mm output to connect to compatible powered speakers and amps. There are also optical and coaxial digital outputs for sending signal over to other components with onboard DACs. The analog output stage has balanced circuitry, meaning the left and right channels have symmetrical circuit layouts to reduce interference — which is hard to find at this price. The RCA output is rated at 2 volts, while the 4.4mm output is rated at 4 volts, meaning you can use this versatile streamer with hi-fi and pro systems alike. Note: Do not connect the 4.4mm output to headphones. The signal voltage exceeds what headphones are rated for. Doing so can lead to damage to your hearing and/or your headphones.
