I notice the Marantz was more detailed on the highs and a little less boomy on the bass, I can definitely hear a difference, I like the sound of the Marantz better.

Fosi offers a 48v 5 amp power adapter, it got it when i purchased my v3 it helps a lot. 32v5amp 4ohm 100w 8ohm 50w / 48v5amp 4 ohm 230w 8 ohm 115w. its defiantly worth upgrading the power adapter.

Buying one of these for my bedroom as its small and Bluetooth to hook up my Klipsch Rp600m speakers to . I generally don't use Bluetooth for audio unless I'm at work but for lying in bed to relax I think this setup will do .

I got the Fosi V3 paired with Fosi DS1 headphoneamp streaming Tidal Hifi from my phone's USB C and I did an op amp roll with OracleII-02 op amps. Try it - a really good! It plays as good as my 10 times more expensive stereo setup. Speakers are XTZ Spirit 4 with upgraded filter components. Unbeleavbly nice for almost no prize!

All the TPA3255/51 amps are very similar in design. The difference lies on the components, more specifically the coupling capacitors and output filters( inductors and capacitors and bypass caps). The original A07 and A04 which had better components did everything right except the output inductors. New designs like the Fosi V3 does everything mostly right. It's components are audio grade(not the highest grade Elna Silmic II, but a decent ones), but the output filters are very high quality. I wonder what would it be if the Fosi used the best coupling capacitors. I recently got the new A04 with tone controls, and that design is very good. I'm planning on upgrade the coupling capacitors which are not the best ones or probably fake ones. A good Nichicon Fine Gold and Muse KZ will do.

A interest question is if we could parallell OR bridge connect both of the Internal chanels amplifier ? When it is only a amp then by parallell or bridge it then we get a lot more power and one chanel speaker output. Then it will probably be a interesting unit for driving a passive subwoofer! But who knows this information?!

As per my AKG K500s and my ears ,,, I hear the midrange and highs more pronounced and a tad harsher with the V3,, but I hear softer warmer highs and mids with the NR1200.. Which one do I prefer ? I’m going with the NR1200,, but having said that, the V3 is definitely worth it for the ridiculously low price 🤷‍♂️

Thank you. Great sound comparison with a receiver. That's the test I was looking for. Everything running flat and at the same matching volume. As I discovered in most Fosi amps, the detail and separation and warmer bass come through on the Fosi. I may have missed it. And if so, I apologize. Was that test with the 48 Volt Power Supply? Thanks in advance.. You gained a subscriber and a like with this video. Just some future advice. You should use the same section of the song on each when doing a sound comparison. A different sections of songs sound quite different. Aside from that it was an excellent video.Thanks again.

The FOSI gives better separation, details and pressure level on the highs, and also on the upper mid. But maybe it could benefit from better power supply.

I found the Marantz a bit too much "midrange forward" I think that would irritate me quickly, hearing that sound signature on my own music too. I'd take the Fosi, & maybe try running my valve pre-amp into it. It's like a power amplifier with a vollume control (& an op-amp input gain stage) But it sounded very good in comparison

Seems to me that the amplifier price points each have a pretty clear first choice up to a pretty high level, with one exception: $65 Fosi V3 $160 Aiyima T9 Pro $250 SMSL AL200 $500 ???? $850 Camridge CXA-61 $1400 Naim Nait 5si $2000 Hegel ______ $3000 Hypex Nilai and matching preamp So what's the category-killer in the $500 range? I had a Dared DV-6C that I loved but it was a really quirky piece, really only good for a person whose DVD player had analog outputs and who didn't want to run any other sources -- which was me at the time. But I never see reviews of amps (ChiFi or otherwise) in that price point.
@danielh12345
@danielh12345 Год назад
Just my opinion, but I prefer the V3 over the aiyima t9 pro. You do get a dac and digital connections + Bluetooth on the t9. If you already have a standalone DAC I do believe the amplifier functionality of the V3 is better than the T9 pro's. Just my opinion. P.s. t9 pro is great value for money, I really like the unit, my brother runs one hooked up to his TV.

@@CinemaDemocratica ah yes, I didn't really factor that in to be honest. My DAC happens to have a remote (which I don't use since my system is desktop based and I just use the controls on the amp).

Fosi 48v is an upgrade for me. T9 I AB'd to test for my brothers system if it was any good. It is, just not as good as my dac + aiyima a07 at the time which the fosi is better than imo
