Using the iFi Audio Zen DAC Signature V2 is easy. First, connect it to your power source using the included iPower2 5V power supply. Then, choose the appropriate input for your device, whether it's the 4.4mm Balanced input or the stereo XLR input via the 4.4mm - to - XLR cable. If you're using downstream equipment with its own volume control, switch to the 'fixed' output mode. Otherwise, use the 'variable' mode to control the volume of powered speakers or use it as a preamp. When streaming music, this amplifier will significantly upgrade the sound quality. Remember, all open - box items are final sales. To maintain it, keep it in a clean and dry place. Avoid exposing it to extreme temperatures or humidity.
