    Review Thoughts on the Fosi audio V3

    Think this is most Chinese companies and Microsoft as well .... I flew Drones commercially going back a number of years and the biggest name was DJI .... their customers were their unpaid testers / guineapigs.

    Review Thoughts on the Fosi audio V3

    My bad .... and thank you for correcting ...... I'm thinking of the V3 Mono, had forgotten there was ever a stereo V3

    Review Thoughts on the Fosi audio V3

    Not sure if you realise but they're "mono" amplifiers so you need a pair of them and an appropriate cable in which case they'd work well .... if you only want a single amp their ZA3 may be a better choice. I'm guessing you already have speakers or will you be looking for those as well?

    How is my laptop affecting my sound quality more than my DAC?

    I think OP's issue might be not using very expensive speaker cable.

    How is my laptop affecting my sound quality more than my DAC?

    I was going to sugget the same as @DiggyGun ... to get a streamer. It also makes it more convenient that your laptop doesn't have o be wired to your DAC and if you connect the streamer to the same network as your laptop it shoul dbe able to find any music stored on it. Even a WiiM mini would...

    Which kind of amp and speakers do you have in your HiFi setup?

    Might be an idea to say why you're asking and what you're trying to achieve and if you're looking for recommendations or if it's just out of curiosity. I have a Denon ACR 2311 for home theatre but use the Preamp outs for my main Front L/R speakers using HT Bypass into an Arcam SA 30 which I use...

    What stations do you listen to?

    I was about to start a new thread and then I saw this one which whilst old seems to have come back to life a bit so thought try here 1st. I used to listen to Wave105 which was brilliant and the DJ's / commentators have a great and often self deprecating humour amongst themselves, they got...

    Too late? Gimmick or a good idea?

    I did similar ... bought same size SD, was using Amazon Music Unlimited at the time and downloaded their Hi Res tracks / my playlists to the card so I had them available offline rather than using mobile data.

    Too late? Gimmick or a good idea?

    I honestly can't see that working especially of it's aiming at a portable market, why would you want to carry that as a secondary item and a heap of discs around when you have a phone with you that can hold thousands of songs or stream from a choice of 100 million. If it was home based and...

    Wiim Ultra connections - Internal or external DAC

    I was a WiiM user and still am for all Multiroom situations. I got an Ultra and a Bluesound Nano both on home trial to pair with my Qutest, overall I found the Nano had a warmer sound with greater detail, WiiM's just sound "thin" in comparison and the bass to low mids a bit "compressed". They...

    service feature discussion for research

    Not so sure it'd be a "favourite feature" but an essential one to me is easy connectivity, if it's a PITA, you're not going to use it. After that would be sound quality.

    Do you preferred Monitor / Neutral or Coloured / Warmer Speaker

    Sods bloomin law have seen 1 other to throw into the mix ... Sonus Faber Lumina 1 :LOL: Oh to be retired having won the lottery, I'd absolutely love the time just comparing them all, that'd be a hobby in itself. Have to say though. I'm heavily leaning towards the latecomer from what I've...

    Do you preferred Monitor / Neutral or Coloured / Warmer Speaker

    This is where my listening suffers as 80% of the time, it's either background music whilst talking or other people are in bed so most of the time it's very low. I'm guessing manufacturers probably "tune" systems / speakers at the sort of volume I was listening last night, so quiet is never...

    Do you preferred Monitor / Neutral or Coloured / Warmer Speaker

    "The Boss" is out tonight, I'm in my main listening room and as she's out have "cranked it up" .... not stupid loud, but louder than when she's gone to sleep which is a lot of my listening time. My whole system has jumped into life with no EQ or anything, I tried it with Dirac previously and...

    Do you preferred Monitor / Neutral or Coloured / Warmer Speaker

    That is a really useful article, the simple explanation of the bands at the end is brilliant!
