Once you’re connected, Nexis directly integrates our streaming engine’s user interface to transform your smartphone into a powerful remote control. No more web browsers or IP addresses; just simple, direct access, in the palm of your hand.
Built to Sound Better.
The ZEN Stream 3 delivers best-in-class sound through focused, intelligent hardware design and signal optimisation:
Upgraded polymer and ELNA Silmic II caps for cleaner power and smoother treble response.
USB and S/PDIF outputs use a femto-precision clock combinedwith Active Noise Cancellation and iPurification tech respectively, for ultra-low distortion performance .
User-selectable Exclusive Modes shut down unnecessary OS processes to minimise software noise and jitter.
Studio-Grade Restoration for any DAC.
The ZEN Stream is the latest in iFi’s lineup to incorporate JVCKENWOOD’s K2 Technology, which takes the often cold, clinical character of many modern recordings, then restores harmonic content lost in post-production or encoding, while maintaining the tracks’ original sample rate.The result is renewed depth, nuance and musicality - a truer representation of the original master, and of the artists’ and engineers’ intent.Previously available exclusively to select iFi audio DACs, any DAC connected to a ZEN Stream can now enjoy the incredible benefits of K2 Technology.
Wi-Fi Setup, Made Simple.
Ethernet delivers the most stable streaming experience and the fastest initial setup, but for those who want wireless, our Nexis app provides a new way of pairing to your router over Bluetooth.
Nexis also gives you direct access to advanced streamer settings, connected storage devices, and seamless over-the-air updates, all from one place.
Set up now to unlock the full potential of your ZEN Stream 3.
