Uncompromising Audio Performance
The ZH3 is engineered for precision and power, built around an audiophile-grade chipset featuring the AKM 4493SEQ DAC for pristine high-resolution playback, an XMOS XU316 processor for fast and stable digital audio processing, and OPA1612 op-amps for ultra-low distortion in the analog stage. Fosiโs custom dual-power fully balanced amplifier circuit delivers up to 2,570mW through the 4.4mm balanced output, with three selectable gain settings to optimize performance for everything from sensitive in-ear monitors to demanding high-impedance headphones.

Whether youโre streaming high-resolution audio from a PC, gaming on a console, or integrating the ZH3 into a full HiFi setup, its support for UAC 1.0 and UAC 2.0 ensures seamless compatibility.
The ZH3 offers customizable playback with bass and treble controls, six digital filters, and a purist signal path option that bypasses EQ for uncolored audio. This versatility empowers users to tailor their listening experience to their preferences, whether for music, gaming, or critical listening.
