The iFi Zen DAC 3 is a new entry to mid level DAC/amp combo. Preserving the signature look from prior Zen products, the Zen DAC 3 has a more premium colorway, with an amazing volume knob paired with it. At $220 USD, it has a bit less power compared to some rivals, but do other characteristics and features make up for it?
