The MaiA DS3 is a newly redesigned compact all-in-one amplifier solution. It combines both analog and digital inputs to suit all different sources. With its 140W per channel at 4 ohms, you can easily power your favorite speakers. All the electronics are packaged in a beautiful machined all- aluminum housing that protects it from external interference.
Diverse input and output options
The MaiA DS3 offers nine inputs. Ready for digital or analog sources, wired or wireless - you've got it covered. The phono section can handle high-power MM, MI or MC cartridges. Connect your tuner or other analog device to one of the three line-level RCA inputs. The DAC section allows for coaxial and two optical connections, as well as a USB input. The aptX™ HD Bluetooth 5.0 high-resolution wireless input allows for streaming your favorite music via your phone. The variable RCA outputs also allow you to include a subwoofer or other power amplifier in your setup. Use the fixed output to distribute the audio signal to another device unaffected by the volume control, for example to power an audio recorder.
Remote control for convenient listening
With the provided remote control, you can change the volume with the motorized potentiometer and switch your input.
