Fosi Audio MC351 2.1 Channel Integrated Amplifier

Exactly what you expect

The device is exactly what you see online and fits the description. I will add that the design looks very nice on my bookshelf.

Pretty decent

It's a little under powered compared to its published rating, but overall I'm reasonably pleased. Sleek looking device. Bluetooth works well. Have yet to experiment with the DAC but looking forward to it.

Disappointing Power House

After lots of back and forth and not getting a replacement unit, the Fosi support sent me a file to patch my MC351 that was supposed to fix the imbalance issues I experienced with the amp and my software (MacOS). I had to get a windows machine first because their patching software is Windows-only. Anyway, the firmware patch fixed the imbalance issues afaik (so far) but the VU meter is still not working and the sound is sharper now, which is a bit weird. Overall a very powerful speaker amp (48V option) in a tiny package with a bit of a questionable service. I’m hoping they can fix all factory units for future reference and that the amp actually lasts as long as it should. For now it’s a 50/50 recommendation
