Review: Pair this with a Fosi Bt20 Pro and 2 speakers and you are set - First off this is not a streamer as so many reviewers claim. It’s sort of frustrating to read reviews about how happy they are with this streamer. Not a streamer. A true streamer (WiiM, Bluesound, Sonos etc) will connect directly to your wifi or through a Ethernet cable and without Bluetooth. In the case of a true streamer you might only use your phones Bluetooth as a remote control to control what your listening to but that’s it’s only function since you will be pulling down the highest quality sound directly from the internet and accessing directly Spotify or tidal etc. from the internet and not from a more inferior Bluetooth compression sent from your phone. From the streamer next you would then amplify the signal and lastly to the speakers. I have this same set up with WiiM mini pro to Yamaha amp and it’s phenomenal. Truly is. Now what this iFi ZenBlue is and how well it works. This device is a Bluetooth receiver. No amp, no direct pulling down data from tidal etc. on the net. you must send it a Bluetooth signal, most commonly I would think and in my case as well from your phone. Or iPad, computer etc. After your Bluetooth signal has been received by the zen blue it must be amplified. Here is my set up in room 2 and it’s very very affordable. Before I had the iFi Zen I only used the very good Fosi BT20 pro, it serves both as a blue tooth receiver and an amp and fed my speakers from there with really great results. Simple as pie and I did not this iFi Zen at all. The Fosi by itself serves 3 functions. Receives Bluetooth, has a DAC and an amp on board. Small convenient and powerful. I paired it with a set of mid range bookshelf speakers (soon to be replaced) with high end bookshelfs and the sound was awesome. Zero regrets. Again this was just from my phone via Bluetooth to the Fosi receiver/amp But….Bluetooth compression does leave a lot to be desired and the DAC in the Fosi bt20 Pro is just ok. Good, passable but I wanted to try to tweak some more out of it. On to where it’s at now. I simply added the iFi Zen Blue receiver (it’s not a streamer) to the chain before the Fosi. The zen blue has a much much better Bluetooth chipset that supports Bluetooth 5.0 and better codecs like apt, aptx hd, and LDAC The codecs transmit much higher Quality audio. Resulting in clearer sound, wider soundstage and less compression artifacts. Plus the DAC in the zen blue is much higher quality and you can bypass the DAC in the fossi by using rca cables. From the zen output using rca cables I plug directly into the Fosi bt20 pro eliminating its need for the Bluetooth since the iFi zen blue has that part covered and improved as well as is it’s DAC since the iFi Zen is superior in that regard too and I just use the Fosi now as an amp which it is phenomenal at. Note: use any amplifier you choose. The Fosi BT20 Pro was the one I already had and was happy with it as a standalone. Make sure to turn off the Bluetooth receiver on the Fosi though if you go this route Simply hold volume button in 2 seconds. You won’t be using its Bluetooth anymore only the amp portion and also without its DAC either. Hook up speakers and bam your set. I couldn't wait to see if the hype was true on the iFi Zen Blue and I can report it is. It’s an amazing difference although you will most likely need a good mid to high range speaker to truly appreciate it otherwise like in this case the Fosi would get the job done. I only mention the Fosi BT20 Pro since I have one and it Performs very well given it size and price. I think k this whole setup without speakers was under $250!
Review: Excellent sound; easy to operate - This is exactly what I was looking for. I am able to stream from my phone and hi-res portable audio player to my main audio system using LDAC. FLAC files and 320kbps internet radio sounds excellent. Pairing is easy, and I have experienced no drop-outs. The upstairs area of our house where this is located is <1000 sq ft., and I have had no issues maintaining connection anywhere on the floor. At first I was worried that the Bluetooth pairing light would keep blinking nonstop after I disconnected, but the unit goes to sleep and the blinking stops after 5 minutes. The lack of a power block and adequate connections is annoying, as almost everyone has noted. Fortunately I had spare RCA cables laying around, as well as an old 5V block from a previous cell phone. The USB power cord is ridiculously short. For the record and since I don’t think I’ve seen it mentioned anywhere, the supplied power cord is 65.5 cm., or a little under 26 in. I used it for a temporary connection while I waited for desertcart to deliver an inexpensive 4-ft. cord that allowed for more flexible placement. Highly recommended product. I do see that desertcart seems to be selling all of these from third-party desertcart Marketplace vendors. That may or may not affect your service. I ordered a unit from one vendor and it never arrived. Second time around with a different vendor, it arrived in 2 days. Track your shipping.

## Questions & Answers

**Q: Can you turn the unit on with your phone as the remote?**
A: My unit appears to be on all the time if there is power to it.   The display will go blank if there isn't an active stream but wakes up immediately if you start to play something.   My amplifier has a switched 110 volt plug on the back so the Zen Air is only on if the amp is on.

**Q: I have a Zen Can Signature MZ99 Bundle wound this device be compatible**
A: Thanks for your question. Zen Air Blue outputs will connect to Zen Can Signature line inputs.
World Wide Stereo – since 1979 – and a proud authorized iFi dealer.

**Q: Does this have a 3.5 mm analog output?**
A: Thanks for your question. The Zen Air Blue has RCA outputs. An RCA to 3.5mm stereo adapter could be connected.
World Wide Stereo is 43 years old and a proud authorized iFi dealer.

**Q: I would like to purchase this item as an unopened - never returned state, how do I make that order?**
A: The Zen Blue I purchased was unopened.  It works well. You might put a note in the delivery instructions, but I wouldn't worry about it.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Exactly what I needed, surprising for the price
*by G***H on March 25, 2023*

I shouldn't have had to buy this product. I owned it's big brother, the iFi Zen Blue V2, which is a couple of years older and also supports balanced output. But then I was an idiot when re-installing an integrated amp, and plugged the wrong power supply in the the V2, causing smoke signals and eau du plastique. Since I wasn't using balanced in this application, I was pleased to see this new Zen Air Blue at half the price. While waiting for delivery, I brought in a FIIO K9 PRO ESS I had because well, it can also Bluetooth. Hey, I guess I should explain that in my office (a real professional office, not at home) I decided I wanted sound, and I stream high-resolution from an iPad to an amplifier to speakers. Not cheap stuff, but good enough for critical listening. The weakest link in the system is the Bluetooth link over BT 5.1 for about 8 feet. Both the older V2 and the FIIO use external BT antennae and the Zen Air Blue does not. Everything is internal. Nevertheless, I'm getting BETTER connectivity with the new Zen Air Blue. This is exceptional. The Zen Air Blue is a very light box, and comes with a short USB-A adapter cable for power. I guess they expect you to use a spare 5V power supply. I had the 5V from the older unit so I just used that. Build quality of the unit is well - light plastic, but it doesn't need anything more than that. Two RCA outlets on the back, they work fine. Easy to hook up. Pairing was quick and easy. I can stream high res Qobuz or Apple music with no issues. The sound has no artifacts, and is very neutral. It seems to be every bit as good as the older by almost 2 years V2 if you are in single-ended use. I thought the FIIO was a bit warmer and smoother, but then the FIIO is an $800 buck desktop DAC/AMP which also happens to be able to stream Bluetooth. I use the FIIO to power headphones, not generally as a line-out unit dedicated to streaming. Yes, the Zen Air Blue provides streaming and LINE OUT, designed for volume control by other devices or applications. I run it into an AUX line in on my integrated amp. It does not need or want a volume control. In my use case, I set a volume I do not wish to exceed on the amp, but use the iPad to control volume all of the time. If this is the item you need, then it serves it's purpose very well. If you aren't sure you need to spend more money, then you don't need to.
