iFi's new wireless DAC features Bluetooth streaming in lossless CD-quality audio

IFi Zen Blue 3 wireless DAC.

Not content to sit still, iFi Audio has followed up its recent Zen DAC 3 and Zen Phono 3 launches with another duo of announcements: the iFi Zen Blue 3 wireless DAC and the iFi Zen Can 3 headphone amplifier. 

Let's start with the Zen Blue 3 DAC, which iFi claims is the "world’s first wireless DAC that can both transmit and receive lossless CD quality with no data loss." It does this by supporting Qualcomm's latest aptX Lossless codec, which allows for lossless 16-bit/44.1kHz (CD-spec) transmission over standard Bluetooth with a bitrate transmission between 1100kbps and 1200kbps.
