Fosi Audio is rolling into CanJam SoCal 2026 with a wave of new gear spanning personal audio, desktop HiFi, gaming and streaming. Fosi Audio CanJam SoCal 2026 marks the brand’s return to the show, taking place August 29-30 at the Irvine Marriott in Irvine, California, with Booth D7 hosting hands-on time with several products ahead of their September launch.
Carbon12: A Carbon-Fiber Diaphragm at an Accessible Price
Leading the Fosi Audio CanJam SoCal 2026 lineup is the Carbon12, a portable in-ear monitor built around what the brand describes as the world’s first UTPT pure carbon-fiber diaphragm. The 12mm carbon-fiber dynamic driver sits inside a precision-crafted TC4 titanium alloy shell and is tuned for a warm, vocal-forward presentation. Fosi Audio expects the Carbon12 to reach the market in late September 2026 at $149.99, positioning it as an affordable entry point into a driver material more commonly seen in far pricier in-ear designs, such as the Campfire Audio Chimera.
Fosi Audio CanJam SoCal 2026: ZH1 Desktop DAC and Headphone Amp Targets Gamers and Audiophiles Alike
Also on show is the ZH1 Desktop DAC & Headphone Amp, designed to bridge high-resolution HiFi, entertainment and gaming in a single desktop unit. AI EQ tuning lets users dial in personalized sound profiles, while RGB ambient lighting and a wide range of inputs and outputs make it equally suited to a dedicated listening system or a gaming setup. The ZH1 expands Fosi Audio’s gaming audio lineup alongside the existing C3 HiFi Headphone Amp and is expected to arrive in late September.
DISC Nano and S3 Lite Round Out the Booth
For listeners embracing the resurgence of physical media, Fosi Audio will also show the DISC Nano, which the company calls the world’s smallest portable CD player. Its half-exposed disc design pairs the tactile appeal of CDs with modern features including 3.5mm and balanced 4.4mm outputs, Bluetooth transmission and MagSafe compatibility, and it is expected to arrive in late September at $99.99. Rounding out the Fosi Audio CanJam SoCal 2026 booth is the S3 Lite Streaming Digital Transport, aimed at listeners who want to add streaming to an existing system without replacing their DAC. It supports USB, optical and coaxial digital outputs, hi-res audio up to 32-bit/768kHz and eight streaming protocols, and unlike the rest of the lineup, the S3 Lite is already available now at $199.99.
Visitors to Fosi Audio CanJam SoCal 2026, whether press, dealers or enthusiasts, can find the brand at Booth D7 for demonstrations and product previews throughout the show.
