Co- Create Multichanel preamplifier


Hi everyone!

I have been thinking about a multi-channel preamplifier for a long time, I think it would be very necessary. Unfortunately, I don't know the parameters of the lc40 that is being made now, I just read that it is being made.. maybe I am knocking on open doors I think a tube preamplifier with inputs of at least 4.. or 5 channels would be a good idea. With rca and full balanced outputs.. I'm thinking about two versions. one would have a tone control and a volume knob and an input selector. The other version has two large VU meters and only a volume control and no eq.. Maybe with a headphone output. Optional phono and wifi connection.. line-level inputs for cassette, cd, tuner, other sources.. could be in the style of the ZA3. High quality is important, it should not be lower than za3 or v3 monoblocks! I apologize for the crappy drawing.. it turned out terrible, but maybe you can see my idea. Ps: if possible dual rca output (it would be perfect if
xlr and rca like zd3 outputs..)

Thank you for your great support.

You can keep an eye on our fosi audio ZP3, it has 2 RCA inputs and 1 XLR input, with RCA and XLR outputs.

And we will consider your suggestions carefully, I will let you know if we have any updates.

Hello, do we really need more than 4 RCA inputs? What devices are usually connected?

Hello, any update on the ZP3 preamp? Will it have a remote control and 12v trigger in/out? I have the ZD3 DAC and ZA3 in mono configuration using XLR. The ZP3 sounds very promising with XLR and RCA inputs/outputs. I can plug in other devices like a CD player, digital streamer or another DAC.

 

[Charles]

Yes, our ZP3 is about to be launched. Please follow our official latest news.

 

[antalistvan1968]

Hi Charles,

Can you share any more specs for the ZP3 and will it have a 12v trigger?

Cheers.

Really excited for this one!

In reading this and the mention of the ZP3, am I wrong to assume that's it right there on the shelf in the picture sitting underneath the ZA3 which is sitting directly on top of it? I think it is!

 

[joergasmussen]

Will it have socketed op-amps?

 

[Charles]

Will it have socketed op-amps?

Yes，He can replace the op amps.

Yes, that’s the ZP3. It does have a 12V trigger in/out, remote control, supports RCA inputs, XLR inputs, one XLR output, and a SUB out output interface. It also supports EQ and HPF adjustments. I had interview with Will and Max at Fosi Audio. I am very proud of them and impressed with the progress and results the Fosi Audio team is making. This ZP3 preamplifier looks very promising.

The Fosi room at AXPONA was VERY impressive! It featured the upcoming ZP3; I’m looking forward to buying one!

Does anyone know what the Vrms for balanced line out will be for the ZP3? Hoping this will be in-line with the Schiit Kara but in a more compact form factor and lower price point.

Nice! Is there any new estimate of when it will be released?

 

[Prisoners]

At AXPONA I was told two months, so mid June maybe.

Hello friends, how are you?
I just saw a video of Jay's Iyagi at Axpona 2025 in which you can get a glimpse of the new ZP3.
I couldn't be more excited about this new release!
Even more so after Vladino's post, which states that it features an HPF function with bass management and subwoofer output. The size and form factor also seem perfect to me. A little bulkier.
I have no doubt it's going to be another best-selling hit from this user-focused brand.
Congratulations on such well-deserved success, Fosi Audio.
Keep it up!

While I write this, my doorbell just rang. It's the postman.Finally (after my country's postal bureaucracy) my New Year's gift arrived. A Fosi Audio T20! Tube Amplifier.
If this isn't customer service and care, then tell me what is!?!?!?!
Thank you, Fosi Audio!

I spent a decent amount of time in the Fosi room and really liked what I heard and saw. The ZP3 was connected and working. There’s a couple of other devices in the pic that were still in development and on display only: top left is a streamer, next to it is a headphone amp.
