Product details

The Zen DAC V2 is an amplifier and digital-to-analog converter that impresses with both perfect sound quality and a compact design. As the ideal companion for your headphones, it becomes an essential part of your music enjoyment at the office or at home. Thanks to its 16-core technology, it can render demanding audio files and decodes even the highest quality MQA data effortlessly. This means you can experience music not just in good quality, but exactly as the artists and producers intended: crystal clear, balanced, and studio-verified.

For those who want to experience top-notch sound, bass is a must. That's why the Zen DAC V2 features TrueBass, offering the perfect solution for real bass, realistic depths, and clear definition. Open over-ear headphones and in-ear monitors particularly benefit from the selectable bass boost, without compromising the precision in the mid-range, which is often the case. Get the most out of your music enjoyment. In addition to its various technical features, the Zen DAC V2 also offers the option to adjust the strength of the audio signal through PowerMatch. This allows you to lower the signal for in-ears, which are usually very sensitive, and increase it for on- or over-ear models with low impedance. Experience for yourself how much you can extract from your favorite headphones. No headphones on hand? No problem. You can also easily use the Zen DAC V2 to enhance your amplifiers or active speakers. Tune in and Zen out.
