USB-C is always better. My DAC is USB-C.
USB-C Output to connect to my DAC
USB-C Input for storage maybe?
That's great to hear. Looking forward to seeing this and pre-ordering this!
It can join the five other Fosi products I own now.
The S3 lite as described sounds great for those of us with existing dedicated DACs....
As mentioned previously, I'd love an S3 Lite Plus (joke name), but the No DAC solution with a touch screen and local storage as well as remote SMB/NAS connection.
I have a raspberry pi with a screen running...
I'm going to grab a S3 BUT my perfect S3 Lite/S4 would be
Pure Streamer (No DAC)
* Screen for cover art and EQ/visualisations.
* Network/Wifi for streaming apps and NAS over SMB
* Internal drive and/or USB for storage
* Outputs: USB Out (plug in my USB DAC), Optical Out, COAX Out (I2S would be...
Hey Fosi,
I'd love to be able to do the room correction. I'm waiting on the Room Correction Workflow (REW) stuff to play around in my house but I have the feeling I'm missing some hardware that might be required for me to do it easily.
Having a EQ box with both physical analog and digital REW...
I've got a Apos Druid R2R DAC (and a topping USB DAC). I'd love something that is purely a media streamer.
Network and local storage with a USB + Optical Out + Coax (or I2S a bonus for the hardcore types).... and then we could plug a USB DAC into that...
One job.
I've installed AkLIAM AK05 on the R2R Druid DAC and the ZA2 AMPS... and it made a massive difference to the point it's influenced the sound in a way that sounds like a live performance in my room.
It sounds amazing, but i'm also kind of mad because I'm looking for a more clean sound.
I'd love...
Ali express also has a ton of these

I am looking forward to pre-ordering this streamer!
As somebody who is currently running a PiCorePlayer -> Topping D10 Balanced USB -> XDR to my Fosi stack. The major thing I think I'm missing is "DSP/EQ" for the room. It sounds like EQ is on the cards with the S3... and being able to do that...
