Details
Give yourself the best audio reproduction in the studio or onstage with the iFi Studio ZEN CAN Studio, a professional-quality headphone amplifier for musicians who rely on headphones for mixing, monitoring, or mastering and won't accept compromise. The compact enclosure is ideal for use in a studio, live room, onstage, or at home. The unit can be connected to a pair of active monitors to use as a premium desktop monitor controller and is compatible with the matching Zen ONE Studio D/A to create a full interface/controller.
At a Glance
Balanced 4.4mm outputs, Unbalanced 1/4 output. Balanced 4.4mm, XLR and 1/4 TRS inputs, unbalanced 3.5mm input. Mic stand 5/8 with underside mounting socket. 15.1V / 385mW at 300 ohms, 7.2V / 1600mW at 32 ohms.
Power and Volume
The ZEN CAN Studio has 52x more output than standard laptop output, giving you everything you’ve been missing and helping you hear your recordings without running out of power. It’s designed to work with well any headphones, with four steps of +6 dB gain adjustment for the perfect match. The ZEN CAN mono selection feature allows you to switch between L, R, or L&R to both headphones.
Stacked with Tech
Top-quality custom OV op-amp delivers extremely low-distortion and low-noise output from the Class A balanced circuitry. This technology trickled down from the iFi Studio flagship headphone amp, the iCAN. Its output is a huge 15.1v at 300 ohms. Sealth mode voltage conversion circuits, with heavy LC filtering, separate the audio circuits from the internal power supply. A large capacitance power reservoir provides the drive for short transient music signals. Both the balanced inputs, from a D/A for example, and unbalanced inputs can be utilized, providing maximum connection flexibility, whether working in the studio, live, or on the road. Internal noise is kept to a minimum as the MCU (microcontroller unit) and LEDs are kept in ‘sleep mode’ unless actioned. All internal switching is FET-based to provide full audio transparency while handling high-peak signals and keeping noise levels and distortion ultralow (0.0001%).
Stage or Studio
The ZEN CAN Studio is equally at home on your desk, onstage, in a live room, or in the control room. Use it for musician monitoring in a live room for example, or for each member of an orchestra or band, for much higher quality than is usually offered during recording sessions. Take it on the road and use it onstage as a monitoring amplifier with your personal IEMs. It’s ideal for use by keyboard players, drummers, and static musicians. Monitor your recordings while mixing and mastering using headphones and the high-quality amplifiers in the ZEN CAN Studio, and be confident in what you hear.
Expandable
The ZEN CAN Studio forms one half of a powerful duo when partnered with the ZEN One Studio. This extremely high-quality standalone D/A converter can be connected using a 4.4mm, XLR, or TRS balanced cable connected to the ZEN CAN Studio to create a fully functioning interface and monitor controller. Add a pair of active near-field monitors to the balanced output on the ZEN CAN Studio and the volume pot becomes the controller for the monitors. Switch between inputs on the ZEN One Studio and this duo proves itself as an adaptable and expandable interface.
