Fosi Audio Introduces MD3 MagDAC Portable DAC/AMP at CanJam Singapore 2026

New portable listening solution pairs with IM4 IEMs as wired audio continues its resurgence among modern listeners

Singapore, May 15 2026– Fosi Audio has announced the upcoming launch of the MD3 MagDAC, a new portable DAC/AMP designed for listeners seeking high-quality wired audio wherever they go. Launching on various shopping platforms beginning May 25, the MD3 combines compact portability with elevated personal listening performance for music lovers, commuters, travelers, and everyday mobile users.

As interest in wired listening continues to grow alongside the resurgence of vinyl records, CDs, and dedicated hi-fi systems, the MD3 reflects a broader shift toward intentional, high-quality audio experiences. Designed to pair seamlessly with smartphones and portable devices, the MD3 offers listeners an easy way to upgrade their everyday listening setup without sacrificing convenience or mobility.

At the core of the MD3 is a flagship audio architecture featuring the ESS ES9039Q2M DAC chipset paired with four ESS ES9603 headphone amplifier chips in a true balanced circuit design. Tuned for both musicality and detail retrieval, the MD3 is engineered to deliver powerful, low-distortion playback in an ultra-compact form factor.

The device supports both 3.5 mm single-ended and 4.4 mm balanced headphone outputs, offering up to 180mW of output power through the balanced connection. Fosi Audio also incorporated an aluminum shielding plate between the magnetic system and internal circuitry to reduce magnetic and electrical interference and preserve signal integrity.

Designed for modern portable listening, the MD3 features dual USB-C ports that support simultaneous playback and device charging, allowing users to maintain uninterrupted listening sessions throughout the day. A MagSafe-style magnetic back plate with integrated N52 magnets allows the unit to securely attach to compatible devices for streamlined portability.

The MD3 also introduces a highly interactive user experience uncommon in ultra-portable DAC/amps. A 1.28-inch LCD display with rotatable orientation provides easy access to settings and playback information, while users can upload custom images directly to the device for personalization. Physical button-based controls, including a dedicated “Ease Button,” allow for quick navigation and intuitive operation without relying entirely on touchscreen gestures or companion apps.

Precision CNC-machined from 6063 aluminum alloy and weighing only 20 grams, the MD3 combines durability with pocket-sized portability. Its sandblasted anodized finish, CNC-textured surface, and engraved branding reinforce the product’s premium industrial design approach.

Fosi Audio will showcase the MD3 publicly during CanJam Singapore 2026, taking place Saturday and Sunday, May 16–17 at the Pan Pacific Singapore. Attendees are invited to visit Booth E7 for hands-on demonstrations and listening sessions.

The company will also highlight the MD3 alongside its IM4 in-ear monitors, presenting the pairing as a versatile portable listening solution built for personal listening anywhere, anytime. Together, the MD3 and IM4 create a compact wired setup capable of delivering detailed, immersive sound for users looking beyond standard wireless audio experiences.

The renewed interest in wired audio has increasingly extended beyond traditional audiophile communities, driven by listeners seeking improved sound quality, reliability, lower latency, and more intentional listening experiences. Portable DACs and wired in-ear monitors have become especially popular among younger listeners rediscovering dedicated listening habits through hi-fi streaming, physical media, and creator-driven audio culture online.

“The way people listen to music is evolving,” said Ryan Huang, Founder and CEO of Fosi Audio. “We’re seeing more listeners actively explore wired audio for its sound quality, consistency, and emotional connection to music. The MD3 was designed to make that experience portable, accessible, and easy to integrate into everyday life.”

Visitors to CanJam Singapore will have the opportunity to experience the MD3 and IM4 combination firsthand prior to the global launch later this month.
