[+] made with premium electronic components. iFi Audio Sometimes there’s nothing better than settling down with a pair of headphones to get up close and personal with a favorite playlist or album. Headphones bring you closer to the music and create an awesome soundstage in your head.
However, until the Sony Walkman came out in the late 1970s, few people other than hi-fi buffs ever used headphones for listening. Now most of the world uses them and it’s probably the most popular way to listen to music. For those of us who are headphone fans, regular audio setups or cell phones don’t give you the best quality sound with headphones.
For example, a lot of audio equipment doesn’t have a dedicated headphone amplifier that’s tailored just for driving headphones. So, what is a music lover to do? The answer could be a dedicated headphone amplifier, especially if you own a good pair of headphones or some high-end In-Ear Monitors. One such amplifier is the new iFi Zen Cam 3, a stunning little headphone amplifier from the British audio brand that’s been perfected for driving headphones with 2,000mW of pure Class A amplification instead of using a cheap digital stage.
This superbly built little device looks like all the other members of the iFi Zen family which includes a DAC, Bluetooth transmitter/receiver and the Zen Can.
