Our take on the Fosi Audio ZA3 Stereo Amplifier

The Fosi Audio ZA3 is a compact Class-D amplifier built on the TI TPA3255 chip. It runs about 155W per channel in stereo or 235W as a mono block, so you can start with one and add a second for more power. Balanced XLR inputs, a 12V trigger and swappable op-amps set it apart from budget mini amps. It suits desktop and bookshelf setups and small home theaters; reviewers rate its clean power and value but note the bare-bones feature set and heat under load.

About the Fosi Audio ZA3 Stereo Amplifier

The Fosi Audio ZA3 is a mini two-channel stereo amplifier built around the TPA3255 Class-D amp chip. It has two modes: stereo mode delivers up to 155W, and mono mode delivers up to 235W. It can be used with passive speakers, a subwoofer, a desktop setup or a home theater.

It has a balanced input and a trigger input. The balanced input helps minimize interference, and the trigger input helps sync it with other devices. Components include Japanese NCC capacitors. The design improves heat dissipation and supports op-amp rolling, so the sound can be customized.

It works with bookshelf, tower and floorstanding speakers.

Questions and answers

Is the ZA3 worth it over cheaper mini amps?
Yes, if you need balanced inputs, a trigger and mono mode. Cheaper amps skip those and usually offer less clean power.
Can I use two ZA3s as mono blocks?
Yes. Each unit runs in mono mode at up to 235W, so a pair powers two speakers with more headroom.
Does it have Bluetooth or a DAC?
No. It is a pure power amplifier, so you need a preamp, DAC or streamer as the source.
What power supply does it need?
It uses an external supply, and full rated output needs a large one. A smaller supply limits peak power.
Can I change the sound with op-amps?
Yes. The op-amps are socketed, so you can swap them to adjust the tone.
Will it drive tower speakers?
In stereo it handles most bookshelf and moderate tower speakers. For demanding floorstanders, a mono pair gives more headroom.
Where is the Fosi Audio ZA3 Stereo Amplifier cheapest?
At Walmart, for $149.99, as of our latest check.
