What's In The Box?

Everything you need is included with the iFi Audio ZEN Air Blue 2.

  • ZEN Air Blue 2 High-Resolution Bluetooth DAC
  • USB-A to DC Power Cable (Power supply not included)
  • Quick Start Guide
  • Warranty Card


World’s First aptX Lossless: Experience CD-Quality Audio Without the Wires

The ZEN Air Blue 2 is a pioneer in wireless audio, featuring the Qualcomm QCC3095 chipset. It is among the first to support aptX Lossless, allowing you to enjoy 16-bit/44.1kHz audio exactly as it was recorded.

By delivering bit-for-bit accuracy and bitrates up to 1,200kbps, it eliminates the "compressed" sound of standard Bluetooth, ensuring your wireless connection is indistinguishable from a wired one.

Discrete Three-Stage Architecture: Eliminate Noise for a Cleaner, More Expansive Soundstage

Unlike generic receivers that rely on a single "all-in-one" chip to handle everything, the ZEN Air Blue 2 employs a dedicated three-stage design.

Bluetooth reception, digital-to-analog conversion, and the final amplification stage are all handled by specialized components - including a discrete ESS Sabre DAC and custom OV series op-amps.

This architectural separation keeps the noise floor at an absolute minimum, resulting in a cleaner, more expansive soundstage.

Jitter-Free GMT Precision: Restore Natural Musicality with Master-Clock Timing

Timing is everything in digital audio. The ZEN Air Blue 2 utilizes our Global Master Timing (GMT) femto-precision clock system to eradicate jitter - the digital timing errors that cause harshness and a lack of detail.

By combining this with TDK C0G Class 1 ceramic capacitors, the internal circuitry ensures high stability and vanishingly low distortion for a smooth, natural musicality that honors the original recording.

Universal High-Res Compatibility: Automatically Unlock the Best Quality from Any Device

While it leads the way with Lossless tech, the ZEN Air Blue 2 is built to work with every source. It supports the full spectrum of high-res codecs, including LDAC and LHDC/HWA at 96kHz, alongside aptX Adaptive, aptX HD, and AAC.

The front-panel LED logo acts as a real-time indicator, changing color to confirm exactly which codec is being received, so you always know you're getting the best possible performance from your device.

Seamless 5V–12V Integration: Enjoy High-Fidelity Streaming at Home or on the Road

With new 5V–12V DC input compatibility, the ZEN Air Blue 2 works from your home, in a car, or even a boat.

The Auto Power-On function mirrors your engine's start - giving you instant, hands-free wireless audio the moment you turn the key. Its gold-plated RCA outputs provide a high-quality 2.1V signal, making it a simple plug-and-play upgrade for any integrated amplifier, active speakers, or vintage receiver.
