Hailing from the same family as the Zen Blue (HFC 460), instead of Bluetooth the Zen DAC V2 is designed as a single-input USB digital-to-analog converter. The port in question is a USB-B located on the rear, while the XMOS controller is 16 rather than 8-core. The USB connection supports PCM up to 384kHz and DSD256 along with MQA support decoded via its Burr-Brown DAC.
