Fosi Audio to Exhibit at CanJam NYC 2026
Showcasing the new C3 AI gaming sound card and MD3 magnetic DAC/Amp
New York, NY, March 4, 2026 — Fosi Audio will present its latest portable HiFi and gaming audio innovations at CanJam NYC 2026 , taking place March 7-8, 2026, at the Marriott Marquis in Times Square. The company’s newest product launches—the C3 AI Gaming Sound Card and MD3 Magnetic DAC/Amp—will headline its exhibition at booth F8 alongside a full lineup of DACs, amplifiers, headphones, and IEMs.
Soon to be launched on Kickstarter, the C3 AI Gaming Sound Card marks Fosi Audio’s first AI-trained gaming audio processor. Designed for competitive FPS players, the C3 leverages Fosi’s in-house Spider S AI model, trained on thousands of hours of real game audio, to enhance critical footstep cues in real time. Unlike traditional EQ-based “footstep boost” modes, the C3 isolates directional movement information without artificially raising overall volume or distorting environmental ambience.
The result is greater positional accuracy and improved spatial awareness, while preserving the natural atmosphere of in-game soundscapes. Compatible with PC platforms and major gaming consoles, the C3 operates plug-and-play via USB-C with no drivers required. An XMOS XU316 processor works alongside a premium CS43131 DAC and dedicated headphone amplification to provide the computational headroom required for real-time AI processing while maintaining clean, high-resolution playback. Hardware-level 7.1 spatial audio support, AI-powered mic noise reduction, and a web-based EQ control interface further expand its flexibility for competitive and immersive gaming setups.
Also making its CanJam NYC debut is the MD3 Magnetic DAC/Amp, an ultra-compact, balanced portable HiFi solution weighing just 20 grams. Built around the flagship ESS ES9039Q2M DAC and a true balanced circuit architecture, the MD3 integrates four dedicated headphone amplifier chips to deliver clean headroom and dynamic range across a wide range of headphones and in-ear monitors.
Designed as a complete portable HiFi signal path rather than a basic adapter, the MD3 features dual USB-C ports for simultaneous use and device charging, a MagSafe-style magnetic back plate for secure attachment, and a 1.28-inch LCD display with direct on-device controls. A 100-step digital volume control with memory, internal aluminum shielding for interference reduction, and precision CNC-machined aluminum construction reflect its focus on both performance and everyday usability.
In addition to the C3 and MD3, attendees at CanJam NYC can experience Fosi Audio’s broader lineup, including:
- IM4 In-Ear Monitors (IEMs) – Precision-tuned earphones designed for accurate, engaging listening
- i5 Planar Magnetic Headphones – A premium open-back planar headphone delivering expansive soundstage, exceptional detail, and a truly immersive listening experience.
- ZH3 Balanced DAC / Headphone Amp / Preamp – A powerful headphone amplifier and DAC combo, designed to drive demanding headphones with finesse and clarity.
- K7 HiFi Gaming DAC & Headphone Amplifier – A versatile Hi-Fi and gaming DAC/amp, delivering clear, immersive sound with independent mic control and a fully balanced architecture.
- DS3 Portable DAC/Headphone Amplifier – A first-of-its-kind XMOS-powered DAC/amp in a battery-free dongle, designed with both audiophiles and gamers in mind offering true plug-and-play immersion across platforms.
- BT20A MAX Amplifier – A Powerful 2.1 Bluetooth Amplifier Designed for Flexible, High-Fidelity Listening.
- ZA3 Balanced Amplifier – A balanced dual-mode Class-D power amplifier that supports both stereo and mono modes.
Together, the lineup reflects Fosi Audio’s continued expansion across both portable and desktop HiFi categories, as well as its growing focus on performance-driven gaming audio.
