iFi Audio ZEN Stream 3 Hi-Res Network Audio Streamer
The iFi Audio ZEN Stream 3 is a network audio transport designed to bring high-resolution wireless streaming to an existing DAC or amplifier without compromise. It supports native playback up to PCM 384kHz and DSD256, and is compatible with Tidal Connect, Qobuz Connect, Spotify Connect, AirPlay, DLNA, and Roon Ready, covering virtually every major streaming platform in a single compact unit. Built on an upgraded open-source architecture and managed through the new iFi Nexis app, setup and day-to-day control are kept straightforward, whether connecting via Ethernet for maximum stability or Wi-Fi for flexibility.
Sonically, a key feature is the inclusion of JVCKENWOOD's K2 Technology, which works to restore harmonic information that is commonly lost during digital mastering. The effect is a more natural, musically engaging presentation without altering the original sample rate or processing the signal artificially. Supporting this is a femto-precision clock alongside integrated iPurifier and Active Noise Cancellation technology on both USB and S/PDIF outputs, which together reduce jitter and scrub noise from the signal before it reaches the DAC. Upgraded ELNA Silmic II and polymer capacitors in the power circuitry further contribute to a cleaner, quieter foundation for the audio signal.
For listeners who want to go further, the ZEN Stream 3 offers user-selectable Exclusive Modes that shut down background software processes and dedicate the system entirely to a single streaming task, minimising software-induced interference at the source. Sharing the same compact footprint and updated aesthetic as the ZEN DAC 3, it fits neatly into both desktop and full hi-fi setups, and arrives with a Wi-Fi antenna, Ethernet cable, and power supply included.
Here is what iFi say about the Zen Stream 3
The ZEN Stream 3 is the definitive third-generation solution for adding audiophile-grade connectivity to any home system. Matching the sleek design of the ZEN DAC 3, this Wi-Fi transport bridges the gap between digital convenience and bit-perfect fidelity. Using an upgraded open-source architecture and the iFi Nexis app, it offers a seamless, low-maintenance setup for effortless wireless control.
Sonic performance is driven by JVCKENWOOD’s K2 Technology, which restores the harmonic depth often lost in digital mastering. The hardware features ELNA Silmic II capacitors for cleaner power and a smoother treble response. To maintain signal purity, both USB and S/PDIF outputs are regulated by a femto-precision clock and shielded by iPurifier and ANC tech to eliminate jitter.
Supporting PCM 384kHz and DSD256, the ZEN Stream 3 offers native playback for Tidal, Spotify, and Qobuz Connect. For purists, "Exclusive Modes" disable unnecessary background processes to minimise software-induced interference. Whether in a minimalist desktop setup or a full hi-fi stack, it provides an effortless, clutter-free path to premium network audio.
Features
- Upgraded open-source architecture with Qobuz Connect support
- Native high-resolution playback for PCM 384kHz and DSD256
- JVCKENWOOD’s K2 Technology for studio-grade harmonic restoration
- Integrated iPurifier and Active Noise Cancellation (ANC) on digital outputs
- New iFi Nexis app for simplified Wi-Fi setup and remote control
- User-selectable Exclusive Modes to eliminate software-induced jitter
- Upgraded ELNA Silmic II and polymer capacitors for cleaner power
- Manufacturer warranty: 12 months
Hi-Res Streaming Simplified
The ZEN Stream 3 serves as a high-performance bridge, bringing lossless wireless audio to your existing DAC or amplifier. By supporting PCM 384kHz and DSD256, it ensures that your digital library is transmitted with absolute transparency. It removes the need for clunky computer setups, allowing you to stream directly from your favourite services with bit-perfect accuracy.
Studio-Grade K2 Technology
A standout feature is the inclusion of JVCKENWOOD’s K2 Technology, which breathes life into sterile digital files. By reintroducing lost harmonics, it restores the warmth and musicality typically associated with analogue masters. This process ensures your music sounds richer and more natural without artificially altering the original sample rate.
Optimised Nexis Connectivity
Setting up network audio is often a headache, but the new iFi Nexis app streamlines the entire process. The integrated IoT chip ensures a stable, fast connection to your home Wi-Fi for immediate playback. Once configured, your smartphone becomes a powerful remote, giving you full control over your music queue and device settings from across the room.
Purist Exclusive Modes
To ensure the lowest possible jitter, the ZEN Stream 3 features unique Exclusive Modes. These settings allow you to dedicate the entire operating system to a single task, such as Tidal or ROON, by shutting down unnecessary background software processes. This "purist" approach eliminates digital interference, providing the cleanest possible signal path to your output.
Advanced Noise Suppression
The digital outputs are engineered to combat the "noise" inherent in many network devices. Utilising Active Noise Cancellation (ANC) and iPurifier technology, the ZEN Stream 3 scrubs the USB and Coaxial signals of distortion. Combined with a femto-precision clock, these features ensure that your DAC receives a rock-solid, jitter-free data stream for improved timing and clarity.
Seamless Collection Integration
Designed to perfectly partner the ZEN DAC 3, this streamer shares the same updated aesthetic and compact footprint. It fits effortlessly into minimalist desktop systems or professional hi-fi racks without adding unnecessary clutter. Whether you are using the Ethernet port for maximum stability or Wi-Fi for convenience, the ZEN Stream 3 completes your digital ecosystem in style.

Why we stock iFi
iFi solve specific problems rather than selling you a whole system. Noise on a USB feed, a laptop that cannot drive your headphones properly, hum from a ground loop. Each unit does one job well at a price that does not require a long think, which is why they turn up in so many systems.
