Just got it. The build quality is impressive. The miserable English in the advertisements still makes it look like a cheap product.

Is 24V 3A enough for Yamaha NX-E800 speakers?

Hi, I have the same speakers as you, and I am planning to buy the fosi v3. Is the combination good ?
 
Would the dual power supplies be an improvement at sane-normal listening levels? If so would it be enough to swap out the very convenient single ps with the filter or is it just a barely noticeable change?
Depends what your normal listening level is. If you already have a working system and a multimeter, check the ac voltage from speaker terminals while listening at the volume you think you will need and you might get an indication. I think most of us will hardly ever use more than one watt rms, as that usually means atleast 80-85db at listening position. Most tower speakers are stupid loud at just one watt.
 
i dont doubt this amp will have issues with difficult to drive speakers but surely most of the common mass market speakers you expect to use on a $120 unit should pose no problem to this?

i'm not saying this amp will not have problems with a variety of speakers but i'm guessing the target audience is never going to encounter that?

show me a common speaker than the average V3 owner will come across that will show these bad results?
Just unpacked the second V3. I'm going to connect them to, for example, BC DCX464 or 18" woofers. The speakers seem quite common. Maybe the audience is not the target. Or the owner are not averaged properly. How to live on now?..
