Description

Equipped with the ES9039Q2M DAC chip and XMOS XU316 USB interface, it offers pristine playback, a fully balanced design for interference-free sound, and versatile connectivity options, including Bluetooth 5.0 with aptX HD. The ZD3 also features op-amp rolling, a 1.5-inch OLED display, and a compact design that is perfect for home audio systems or desktop setups where space is limited.

ADVANCED BLUETOOTH CAPABILITIES

Equipped with Bluetooth 5.0 and aptX HD, the ZD3 allows for high-quality wireless streaming from compatible devices. The QCC3031 chip ensures robust wireless performance, supporting various codecs such as SBC, AAC, aptX, and aptX HD for an enhanced listening experience.

SUPERIOR AUDIO PRECISION WITH ES9039Q2M DAC CHIP

The ZD3 is powered by the high-performance ES9039Q2M DAC chip combined with the XMOS XU316 USB interface. This setup supports PCM sampling rates of up to 32-bit/768kHz and DSD512, ensuring crystal-clear audio playback with minimal noise and distortion.

FULLY BALANCED DESIGN

The ZD3's fully balanced architecture significantly reduces interference and enhances audio clarity, providing users with a clean and rich sound experience. This design ensures dynamic sound reproduction, making the DAC suitable for both stereo and surround sound configurations. With its compact and exquisite appearance, the ZD3 features the same design language as the ZA3 amplifier, making it an ideal pairing for a robust home audio system.

VERSATILE CONNECTIVITY OPTIONS

The Fosi Audio ZD3 Desktop DAC offers a wide range of connectivity options to accommodate various devices. It features USB inputs for digital sources, HDMI ARC for easy integration with TVs (note: it does not support eARC), and Optical and Coaxial inputs for traditional audio setups. For outputs, the ZD3 provides balanced XLR outputs for professional audio equipment and RCA outputs to ensure compatibility with standard devices.

CUSTOMIZABLE AUDIO WITH OP-AMP ROLLING

Tailor your listening experience with the ZD3 op-amp rolling feature, which allows users to swap out DIP8 op-amps to achieve their desired sound signature. Compatible op-amps include LME49720, NE5532, MUSES02, and SS3602. This customization lets you adjust tonal characteristics—whether you prefer warmer tones, brighter highs, or a neutral balance—making it easy to match the DAC's output to your personal preferences or audio gear.

PREAMP BYPASS SWITCH FOR PURE DAC OUTPUT

The ZD3 includes a dedicated preamp bypass switch that lets you use the device purely as a DAC without any preamp processing. This feature ensures an unaltered signal path for purists seeking the cleanest audio output possible. To get you started right away, the ZD3 comes with essential accessories, including a 12V power adapter, infrared remote control, USB-A to USB-B cable, and a 3.5mm trigger cable, ensuring seamless integration with your existing audio setup.

USER-FRIENDLY FEATURES FOR SEAMLESS CONTROL

Equipped with a user-friendly 1.5-inch OLED display that provides clear visual feedback on settings and inputs, the ZD3 also features a distinctive orange knob for intuitive volume and menu navigation. It comes with an infrared remote control that simplifies operation from a distance.

Please Note

- The ZD3 does not support eARC functionality.
- Users with LG TVs may need to disable HDMI-CEC to prevent power cycling issues.
- Direct headphone connection is not supported due to the absence of a headphone amplifier.
