Exceed my expectations

I had a cheap Ebay DAC but my interest in sound pushed me to purchase the Fosi. My mind was already settled that I probably would not notice a difference in sound quality. But my wife and I immediately noticed a huge difference in the dynamics of sound that came from this unit. It looks beautiful with our sound system and I am now interested in testing some of their other products. They are definitely money well spent. To put it short, I was blown away with the difference.

Great value for money!

Easy to set up, easy to use. Sounds amazing...really natural sounding, just what i wanted. Only bummer is that i bought it from an importer in my country which was more expensive. Should have bought it directly from the Fosi Audio website instead.

Excellent DAC with my Krell and Electrocompaniet amps.

Excellent product for us!! We stream music from a Xiaomi tv box Gen2 most of the time (YouTube and Tidal). This ZD3 DAC works excellent connected with XLRs to either of my amps (Krell KAV 300i or Electrocompaniet ECI 3). Man, this DAC sounds fantastic!! Thanks for a great product! Looking forward to play around with the Op-Amps.
