Amazing
What can i say? With a single word its perfect.I was using Zen Dac V1 for drive my Sony Mdr 7506 headphone. But when i got Hifiman Sundara Zen Dac was not powerfull to drive them. Then i got a balanced cable to use 4.4 balanced output of the Zen Dac beause there is more power than the 6.5 output, sound was better but it was going to distortion on the high volume because Zen Dac only deliver 380 mW max. and not enough very well.Then i decided to get Zen Air Can as separeted headphone amp. Because its 3 times more powerful than then the Zen Dac’s balanced output.(Air Can: 1,2 watt at 32ohm)(Zen Dac: 380mW at 32ohm)Now i using Zen Dac as a dac and Air Can to drive my Sundara.As power supply i using Dc 5v 2,4 A phone charger (12watt). Its feed up very well.**(Please mind about current level, because first i tried with 5V 1A charger, but 5V 2,4 A charger better about sound and all)The result is amazing. There is more power, sound stage and details on the Sundara withtout distortion on high volume(xbass is off).XSpace is a nice filter which i like turn it on, it adds more air and stage to music without change sound character.Yes its a plastic body but build quality nice enough with metal volume knob and looks premium with dark grey and black colors.On this price point we can not get better than this. I would like to say thanks to ifi Audio engineers and all ifi Audio team. This was more than i expect. And this setup put a big smile to my face.And also thanks to Peter Tyson’s shop for fast delivery, the pack was on my hand next day.

Surpasses expectation and great value!
I bought the ZEN Air CAN to drive my Sennheiser HD6XX and Beyerdynamic T 90, both are 300 Ohms, the ZEN Air CAN drives them easily!From the first song I noticed the difference, the extra power results in a richer, more dynamic, more controlled and cleaner sound.With the Sennheiser HD6XX the bass has more impact, it feels more controlled, but the XBass+ function takes the bass to another level! The mids feel more present, it greatly favors female voices but the vocals in general are more present and cleaner.The highs feel more extended but without being aggressive and finally the soundstage is wider, after listening to my HD6XX with the ZEN Air CAN there is no going back.With my Beyerdynamic T 90 the result is very similar, greater control and impact on the bass, in this case I don't need to activate the XBass+, the mids and highs are clearer and more controlled, the amplification power makes the music more dynamic and punchy, I love the combination of the ZEN Air CAN + Beyerdynamic T 90 for my EDM!Well worth the sound upgrade you get for the price!

Decent for the price
Very pleased with my purchase, I use this hooked up to my pc for gaming/movies and delivers good sound quality over just plugging into my pc. I get no distortion at all and gives me a much needed boost in volume. Recommend this product if you want something to drive your headphones at decent volumes and a good balanced sound

Misleading description.
I could not use the ifi Zen as, unbelievably, it does not include a power lead. You need to buy this separately for £70 😆. ( ifi Zen power supply). Apparently, cheaper ones MAY work but I have no idea what would without buying them which I'm not prepared to do.I have never before, bought anything that doesn't work out of the box. No mention of this is made in the description. You only get a short USB cable but this needs to be plugged into a psu rated at least 3 amps otherwise it won't work.I also called and emailed the seller ( Joe Audio) and have not been responded to.Therefore, they can have it back.Incidentally, if you read the What Hi Fi review, it states that this is supplied with a power supply. Obviously incorrect.

Quality unit
This is the 4th headphone amp I have tried, sent all the others back for one reason or another. This one's a keeper. Well made and designed, it has more features than you need but sound quality is excellent. I use it with a WiiM mini and hifiman HE400SE both purchased from Amazon and I listen exclusively to Amazon music hd, after many years with Spotify and trying tidal with a meridian explorer 2 ( don't bother) MQA is nowhere near as good as FLAC. I digress the sound quality of all 3 of the components is terrific. If I had to pick the most outstanding product it would be the hifiman planar headphones but they can only shine if the rest of the chain perform well. As there is no power plug supplied I was a little worried about the quality I should be looking at for this. Rest assured I have used an oppo phone charger 2.1 amp and an Asda 2.4 amp, both worked perfectly with no background noise. I am yet to try it with a power bank but I'm sure it will be good if not better than the mains supply.

Excellent quality
I actually bought this ifI Zen air can as a pre amp for my Yamaha soundbar. And the XBass really beef's up the bass and the Xspace helps the soundbar fill the room much better. Overall very happy with what I wanted it to do.
