Amplifying Your Voice, Shaping Our Innovation

At Fosi Audio, behind every innovation, there's a story. The birth of the ZA3 amplifier is just such a story, centered around our users. After the launch of the V3 amplifier, we gathered innumerable feedback from passionate audiophiles. They expressed a desire for us to develop an even better amplifier based on V3.

Product details

Description
  • Dual-Mode Innovation: This new generation mini amplifier offers both stereo and mono modes, and adapts flexibly to your diverse needs, allowing seamless mode switching. In stereo mode, it delivers a robust output of up to 155W, while in mono mode, the power soars to a maximum of 235W. Pair two ZA3 units in mono configuration to create a powerful audio system, significantly enhancing your listening experience.

  • Richer Connectivity: Debut amplifier with balanced input and trigger in, the ZA3 features a balanced combo audio signal input connector supporting both XLR and 1/4" TRS plugs. This design minimizes interference and reduces noise floor. The 12V trigger-in connector enables synchronization with other devices, streamlining the process of turning on/off without individual operations.

  • Audiophile-Grade Components: The ZA3 features the TPA3255 high-end Class-D amp chip and utilizes premium Japanese NCC, ELNA, and German WIMA capacitors, and Japanese Sumida inductors for exceptional audio quality. With a SINAD rating of up to 89dB, an SNR of up to 106dB, and a low noise floor of only 150μV, it delivers exceptional clarity and low distortion.

  • Advanced Heat Dissipation: Based on V3's groundbreaking heat dissipation design, we upgraded ZA3's cooling system by featuring a larger chassis, moving vents to the sides, and adding dust covers to achieve better ventilation for a sustained and stable high power output.

  • Enhanced Scalable Fun: Personalize your audio experience with the op-amp rolling feature! The ZA3 stocks five swappable op-amps for left and right channel outputs, balanced input, and subwoofer output. Experiment with compatible DIP8 dual op-amps such as Sparkos SS3602, MUSES02, OPA2134PA, OP249, AD827, RM4558, LM4562, LME49720HA, etc. to fine-tune your sound to perfection.

  • What you Get: ZA3 Power Amplifier x1, Power Adapter x1 (The plug of the power adapter will match the country of your delivery address), User Manual x1, our worry-free 24-month warranty, and friendly customer service.

FAQs

Please read our FAQs page to find out more.

Stereo Mode

Replacing the op amps for both left and right channels in stereo mode, regardless of RCA or XLR inputs, will notably enhance sound quality.
Mono Mode: Only replacing the op amps for the right channel.

XLR Input

Using XLR input mode allows for further sound quality enhancement by replacing the op amps for the XLR channel.

Subwoofer Channel

If a subwoofer is connected, there's the option to replace the op amps responsible for the subwoofer channel.
Note: Carefully align the notch/the number '1' on the chip's cover with the 'O1' mark on the PCB.

Giant killer

I’m done with hefty amps. You know those 50lb class a/b amps that eat power and give off heat.
The Za3 effortlessly power floor standing speakers with exceptional signal to noise/SINAD (low noise floor). Detail recovery is top notch and they run cooler to boot.
Why have a giant, space and power hog amp that costs a lot, when you can have a better compact amp for a fraction of the price?

Incidentally, the SPARKOS opamps are the greatest thing since opamps existed. Far superior to stock TI opamps.

ZA3 PERFECTION

Using a pair in mono with a Yamaha A4A, Polk R600s, AT-LP5X turntable, Ifi Zen Phono 3 preamp: the most amazing luxurious sound I have ever heard. Already at quite a decent setup, the mono amps were the last 10% of the dream. I never expected the dream to feel like 150%. Highly recommend the MUSES02 chips as they personally paired well with all of my equipment.

Excellent Audio and Value

I replaced my Fosi BT20A with a ZD3 DAC and ZA3 amplifier. Straight out of the box, the sound was clearer and richer. My tip is to use a USB cable to stream music; Bluetooth requires much more and the volume suffers. A hard line to the DAC and you will be impressed. I also feel the quality and appearance are first rate, especially considering the cost! A speaker is always the limiting factor - challenge your best to what Fosi provides!
