Things to Know
Aiyima A07 Max
- ⚠Vents are located on the bottom/sides, which is better than the original but still relies on passive convection.
- ⚠Some users report 'sparking' at the DC input jack when connecting power (connect brick to wall last).
- ⚠Aux output is not a true variable pre-out.
Fosi Audio MC101
- ⚠Uses the older, noisier TPA3116 chip (higher noise floor than V3/A07).
- ⚠Bluetooth only supports SBC/AAC (no AptX/LDAC).
- ⚠Speaker terminals are very close together; difficult to use with thick cables.
