For a much better audiophile quality
TheiFi Audio ZEN Air CAN is a pure and simple amplifier. It simply takes an input signal from a source and creates a larger copy of the original signal before it is sent to your headphones. To get an idea of what the ZEN Air CAN can do, listen to sound with your hands over your ears and then remove them! Adding the ZEN Air CAN to your system is a bit like that - it makes the sound clearer and the volume louder.
Designed especially for you and your music
The iFi Audio ZEN Air CAN comes with three gain settings to work best with each pair of headphones or in-ear monitors. What is gain? Gain in audio terms refers to the ability of an amplifier to increase the amplitude (size) of the signal from the source (input) to the headphones or speakers (output). Much better gain equals a stronger signal. You will need to adjust the gain according to the sensitivity of the headphones you are using. For example, very sensitive headphones require a lower gain.
The ZEN Air CAN has two different headphone jacks: 6.3mm unbalanced and 4.4mm S-Balanced. There are basically two types of headphones: unbalanced and balanced. In a nutshell, the unbalanced option is the most common, but the balanced option is often considered the best because it offers more power and control of the headphones.
iFi Audio knows that not everyone has balanced headphones, so they created their S-Balanced technology. This gives you all the benefits of a balanced connection - less noise, less crosstalk - but without the need for balanced headphones.
