Delivering 50 times more power, you’ll finally hear what you’ve been missing.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eHowever, the ZEN CAN Signature offers more than just power; it also delivers warm and exceptional sound quality. This is thanks to its Class A discrete balanced circuitry, inherited from the flagship Pro iCAN headphone amplifier.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003e3 In, 3 Out. Free to Connect.\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe ZEN CAN Signature offers a range of input options, including stereo RCA, 3.5mm single-ended, and 4.4mm balanced inputs, making it versatile enough to connect with your laptops, phones, or DACs.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFor output, it provides a 4.4mm balanced option for headphones that support balanced connections. It also features a 6.3mm jack for headphones with standard single-ended connectors. If you’re using earphones with a 3.5mm plug, a 3.5mm to 6.3mm adapter is available, so there’s no need to worry.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe unit also includes an analogue balanced output on the back panel, ideal for connecting active speakers via a 4.4mm to XLR adapter. As the ZEN CAN Signature is fully balanced and dual-mono circuit design, this is the recommended output option.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"wpb_text_column\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"wpb_wrapper\"\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eNo Pain.

This feature ensures compatibility from super-sensitive IEMs to power-hungry headphones. We recommend starting at 0dB and then gradually adjusting the switchable gain level to find your optimal volume for both enjoyment and comfort.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIt also features two analogue processing modes, XSpace and XBass, designed to enhance the soundstage and low-frequency response of your headphones.

This features Active Noise Cancellation II to eliminate all incoming EMI and RFI noise, ensuring a clean and clear audio experience. The iPower2 is already exceptional, being more than 10 times quieter than standard power supplies. For those looking to further enhance their setup, consider the DC iPurifier2, which can further reduce system interference, as well as the iPowerX power supply.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"wpb_text_column\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"wpb_wrapper\"\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eThe Signature brothers.\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"wpb_text_column dp2-text\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"wpb_wrapper\"\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIf you’re looking to upgrade your Desk-Fi system to support high-resolution music files up to 32-bit\/384kHz, DSD256, and MQA, the ZEN DAC Signature V2 is the ideal companion for the ZEN CAN Signature. This device can serve as a pure DAC, enhancing your audio experience.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eTo set it up, simply connect your laptop to the USB Digital Input on the ZEN DAC Signature V2. Then, link it to the ZEN CAN Signature using either RCA cables or an iFi 4.4 to 4.4 cable. We highly recommend using the 4.4 to 4.4 cable for optimal performance.
