I was referring to the ifi Hip DAC, not the Zen.

Still never used it long enough to test.

Ah, ok. Do report back once you have, thanks in advance.

Will IFI, by anyhow, create DAPs in the future?

Although that's unlikely, we never say never!

Does anyone know what the length of the included USB cable is? Just so I know if I have to buy a longer one alongside it.

The one that came with mine measures 20 inches from the end of one connector to the other. Hope this helps, and sorry I didn't reply sooner.

Recently we were able to convince our chief designer Thorsten Loesh to answer several questions from you guys, which were published here with all answers:

A phone can power a Zen-Dac!

Yes it can, you are able to power the ZEN DAC through your android phone. We wouldn't recommend this though as it can quickly drain the battery of your phone, so just keep an eye out

Please make sure that your Tidal is set up correctly. It seems that audio stream sent from your smartphone to the ZEN DAC isn't MQA, which is what its green LED indicates.

Dear all, for those of you have experience with both the Zen Dac and Chord Mojo, is it worth the money to upgrade to Mojo? Apart from differences in sound signature, is the sound quality significantly better on the Mojo (subtle difference, or a big jump)? Many thanks.
