FOSI Audio ZD3 Highlights

Fosi Audio ZD3: Balanced architecture

In order to deliver the cleanest possible sound, Fosi Audio opted for a symmetrical architecture during the design of the ZD3, drastically reducing the distortion that one channel could create on the other.

Fosi Audio ZD3: ESS ES9039Q2M Sabre DAC chip

Thanks to its ES9039Q2M DAC chip using Hyperstream IV technology and taking advantage of the advanced Sabre HiFi architecture, the ZD3 is capable of handling a PCM signal up to 32bit 768kHz and DSD up to DSD512.

Fosi Audio ZD3: Excellent connectivity

The ZD3 has 5 different inputs, allowing it to adapt to any configuration. Moreover, you can use the HDMI ARC, Optical and Coaxial inputs, each of which accepts a signal up to PCM 24bit 192kHz. You can also use the USB-B input, which accepts PCM 32bit 768kHz and DSD512 thanks to the XMOS XU316 interface used.

Fosi Audio ZD3: Bluetooth 5.0

The ZD3's Bluetooth QCC3031 chip enables it to support high-resolution codecs for stable, reliable wireless transmission: SBC, AAC, aptX and aptX HD. The ZD3 therefore supports up to PCM 24bit 48kHz, i.e. CD quality in wireless transmission.

Fosi Audio ZD3: Interchangeable OPA

The ZD3's amplification stage is based on LME49720 OPAs with an output level of 5Vrms on XLR and 2.5Vrms on RCA. However, as these are DIP8 mounted, you can easily replace them with other OPAs with a different sound profile to adapt the pre-amplification to your tastes.

Fosi Audio ZD3: Low noise low-dropout regulator

To ensure the cleanest possible power supply, the ZD3 features a number of very low-noise voltage regulators, ensuring that the power needed to operate the device does not pollute your audio signal.

Une reussite
Connecté par câbles XLR à un ampli ZA3, et relié en optique à mon Yamaha WXC-50, en coaxial à un lecteur de Blu-ray Sony et en hdml arc à un téléviseur Samsung, ce Dac ZD3 joue les chefs d’orchestre avec une redoutable efficacité. Mes enceintes JMR Folia jubilé (4ohm) restituent un son à la fois précis, légèrement chaud avec des aigus sans aucune agressivité. Hauts et bas Médiums sont superbes et très bien équilibrés. Les basses n’en font pas trop et sont bien contrôlées. Bref que du bon. Le Dac apporte de la précision à ce petit système tout en restant très musical. Cette nouvelle puce ESS 9039 est une réussite quelque soit l’entrée utilisée.
A ce prix c’est vraiment une affaire.
