iFi ZEN Blue 3 — Lossless Bluetooth Receiver / Transmitter & DAC

Limitless. Lossless. Audiophile sound meets true wireless freedom.

The iFi ZEN Blue 3 ushers in a new standard for Bluetooth audio. As the gap between wired and wireless audio narrows, ZEN Blue 3 bridges both worlds—delivering lossless Bluetooth performance alongside full wired DAC functionality. Building on the success of the ZEN Blue series, iFi went further than ever before by adding aptX Lossless, USB DAC capability, and full Bluetooth transmission.

aptX Lossless (1,200kbps) Qualcomm QCC518x Bluetooth RX & TX USB / Optical / Analogue Inputs Balanced 4.4mm Output ESS Sabre DAC Low Latency Mode

Cut the Cord. Keep the Quality.

ZEN Blue 3 delivers uncompromising wireless audio thanks to Qualcomm’s flagship QCC518x Bluetooth chipset and aptX Lossless. With a maximum bitrate of 1,200kbps, aptX Lossless is the first Bluetooth codec capable of transmitting CD-quality audio wirelessly with no data loss.

If your source device supports aptX Lossless, you can stream true lossless music from your phone, tablet, or computer directly to your hi-fi system—without sacrificing sound quality.

Complete Bluetooth Codec Support

Not ready for lossless Bluetooth yet? ZEN Blue 3 ensures total compatibility by supporting all major Bluetooth codecs:

  • aptX Lossless
  • LDAC™
  • LHDC / HWA
  • aptX Adaptive
  • aptX
  • AAC
  • SBC

Forging New Connections

High-resolution Bluetooth headphones and TWS earbuds are essential for modern listening, yet often remain disconnected from traditional home audio systems. The ZEN Blue 3 removes this barrier by offering Bluetooth transmission in all supported codecs—including aptX Lossless.

  • Connect turntables, TVs, laptops, or phones via USB-C, SPDIF, or RCA
  • Transmit audio wirelessly to Bluetooth headphones or earbuds
  • Perfect for late-night listening, movies, gaming, or work sessions

Versatility Breeds Possibility

Powered by the Qualcomm QCC518x chipset and a dedicated ESS Sabre DAC, ZEN Blue 3 outperforms typical Bluetooth receivers and transmitters. It also functions as a fully wired DAC:

  • USB-C: up to 96kHz / 24-bit
  • SPDIF: up to 192kHz / 24-bit
  • Outputs: Balanced 4.4mm & RCA analogue

Let That Sync In — Low Latency Mode

Audio delay can ruin immersion when watching movies or gaming. ZEN Blue 3’s Low Latency mode, when paired with compatible aptX Low Latency devices, drastically reduces transmission delay—so visuals and sound stay perfectly in sync.

Balanced in All Things

With high-resolution sources becoming the norm, balanced circuitry is essential. ZEN Blue 3 includes a balanced line output to significantly reduce noise and crosstalk between channels, delivering cleaner, more transparent sound.

Performance can be further enhanced with the optional SilentPower iPower2, featuring Active Noise Cancellation II technology.

Audiophile-Grade DAC Architecture

  • ESS Sabre Hyperstream DAC: With Time Domain Jitter Eliminator for ultra-low distortion and high dynamic range.
  • 112dB Dynamic Range: Exceptional detail and clarity for discerning listeners.
  • OV Series Op-Amps: iFi’s custom design delivering ultra-low noise, 0.0001% distortion, and wide bandwidth.
  • Balanced Circuit Design: Reduced interference and cleaner sound— a topology usually reserved for far more expensive products.

Why Choose ZEN Blue 3?

  • True lossless Bluetooth audio with aptX Lossless
  • Receiver + transmitter + wired DAC in one unit
  • Balanced outputs for audiophile systems
  • Low-latency performance for movies and gaming
  • Future-proof Bluetooth and DAC architecture
Note: ZEN Blue 3 redefines what Bluetooth audio can achieve, combining audiophile-grade DAC design with the freedom of lossless wireless playback.

Limitless. Lossless.

Welcome to a new standard in Bluetooth audio.

Audiophile Sound. Wireless Freedom.

The wired world is changing. Where once cables were king, Bluetooth audio is now carving out a place for itself, and with the advent of Lossless Bluetooth audio, the gap between wired and wireless audiophile options is narrower than ever.

The ZEN Blue 3 brings these two worlds together in spectacular fashion. Building on the resounding success of the ZEN Blue range, we took everything that made them great and dared ourselves to do more.

Adding aptX Lossless was our ‘small step’. Our ‘giant leap’ came when we added USB DAC capability, and Bluetooth transmission. With USB, optical and even analogue inputs available, there have never been more ways to connect to the music you love, while enjoying the freedom of wireless Hi-Res audio.

Cut the Cord. Keep the Quality.

The ZEN Blue 3 offers wireless audio that is free of compromise by incorporating Lossless Bluetooth audio, courtesy of Qualcomm’s Flagship QCC518x Bluetooth audio chip and the aptX Lossless codec.

Offering a maximum bitrate of 1,200kbps aptX Lossless is the first and only Bluetooth codec currently capable of wirelessly sending and receiving CD-quality audio without losing data during compression. For instance, if your phone supports aptX Lossless, you can stream high-quality lossless music from your phone to your hi-fi system.

Not ready to join the Lossless party just yet? Not to worry, we’ve got you covered. The ZEN Blue 3’s extensive backwards compatibility ensures that all current major Bluetooth codecs are supported: aptX Lossless, LDAC™, LHDC/HWA, aptX Adaptive, aptX, AAC and SBC.


Forging New Connections.

In this increasingly wireless world, high resolution Bluetooth headphones and TWS (True Wireless Stereo) earbuds are an essential for audio enthusiasts. However, the need for a Bluetooth connection can often make them incompatible with your home audio setup.

The ZEN Blue 3 tears down this wall with Bluetooth transmission in all supported codecs, including CD-quality aptX Lossless.

Connect your ZEN Blue 3 to audio sources such as laptops, mobile phones or TVs, via USB-C, SPDIF or even analogue RCA, and introduce your favourite Bluetooth headphones or earbuds to the rest of your audio world.

Whether it’s a late-night vinyl session without the speakers, enjoying your aptX Lossless earbuds while working on your laptop, or marathoning your favourite Netflix series on the TV via headphones, the ZEN Blue 3 offers new opportunities for listening enjoyment.


Versatility Breeds Possibility.

Even with all this innovation on show, the ZEN Blue 3 has even more tricks up its sleeve.

Leveraging the capabilities of the Qualcomm QCC518x chipset paired with a dedicated ESS Sabre DAC and Hi-Fi circuitry, it outperforms most Bluetooth transmitters and receivers.

The ZEN Blue 3 is also able to function as a fully wired DAC, offering 96kHz/24Bit audio via USB-C, or 192kHz/24Bit audio via SPDIF, which can be output via 4.4 balanced or RCA analogue outputs.

Wired and wireless – is it too much to ask for both? We believe not.

Let That Sync In.

Whether you’re getting lost in a great movie or immersing yourself in your favourite video game, few things take you out of the moment quite like a delay in the audio. This is a notorious issue with other Bluetooth products, but for the ZEN Blue 3 this is simply another place to excel.

When using ZEN Blue 3’s Low Latency mode with a device receiver that supports aptX Low Latency, the time taken to send and receive audio is drastically reduced. When your eyes see it, your ears hear it – putting you right back in the moment, where you belong.


Balance in All Things.

With so many Hi-Res audio options available to the ZEN Blue 3, making balanced circuitry available to users is more important than ever.

By including a balanced line output, users with a balanced audio setup can look forward to significantly reduced signal noise and crosstalk between channels, bringing all the clarity with none of the audio clutter.

Performance can be further enhanced with the optional SilentPower iPower2 power supply, featuring proprietary Active Noise Cancellation II technology.


Discrete ESS Sabre Hyperstream DAC chipset with time domain jitter eliminator, discrete oscillator and 112dB dynamic range for discerning listeners.


It is a superior method to the traditional single-ended circuit approach. Balanced circuits reduce noise and crosstalk. Less Interference – clearer sound.

You normally find this set-up in products at the higher end of the price spectrum such as the Pro iCAN Signature but iFi is now using this across its range to produce the best quality audio for all our customers.


As with many other iFi audio products, we’ve incorporated a custom OV Series operational-amplifier. This top-notch component contributes to the extremely low noise, low distortion (0.0001%) and wide bandwidth.


A key advantage of the ESS Sabre DAC chip is its Hyperstream architecture with integrated Time Domain Jitter Eliminator, which delivers vanishingly low distortion and a high dynamic range.
