IFI AUDIO ZEN AIR BLUE 2 Bluetooth Receiver

The iFi Audio Zen Air Blue 2 is an audiophile Bluetooth receiver with integrated DAC, designed to add high-quality wireless connectivity to any HiFi system. It is based on a 3-stage internal architecture (Bluetooth, DAC, amplification) integrating a Qualcomm QCC3095 chipset, a dedicated ESS Sabre DAC, and proprietary OV Series operational amplifiers, ensuring optimized signal processing at every stage. Compatible with Bluetooth 5.4, it supports a wide range of codecs including aptX Lossless, LDAC, LHDC/HWA, aptX Adaptive, aptX HD, aptX, AAC, and SBC, allowing transmission up to 24bit 96kHz and bitrates reaching up to 1200kbps in aptX Lossless.

It features a stereo RCA analog output (2.1V RMS) with ≤51Ω impedance, a signal-to-noise ratio of 109dB, very low distortion (<0.005%), and an extended frequency response up to 40kHz. The device also includes a high-precision GMT femto clock to reduce jitter, a supplied external antenna (short and long) to improve reception, a pairing and control button, and flexible operation thanks to a 5 to 12V DC power supply (via DC Jack), enabling use both in home environments and in a car or on battery power. Compact (158 x 100 x 35mm) and lightweight (305g), it is a complete and modern solution for high-fidelity wireless audio streaming.
