Fosi Audio has introduced the MD3 MagDac, a unique MagSafe accessory that transforms iPhones into serious audio devices. Fosi Audio has engineered this magnetic headphone amp and DAC to add both 3.5mm single-ended and 4.4mm balanced headphone outputs to modern iPhones, addressing the missing headphone jack dilemma for audiophiles. The device features a 1.28-inch LCD display on its back panel, primarily serving as a 100-step volume control.

Beyond iPhone integration, the MD3 MagDac offers USB-C connectivity for simultaneous charging and audio output. This versatility extends the device's functionality to other USB-C products including MacBooks and iPads. Available in Galaxy (silver) and Obsidian (black) color options that match Fosi's existing wired earphones, the accessory provides a seamless aesthetic for dedicated wired audio enthusiasts.

Scheduled for launch on May 25, the MD3 MagDac carries an expected price point of $150, positioning it as a premium solution for serious mobile audio. For consumers who don't require MagSafe compatibility or the display feature, Fosi Audio already offers more affordable alternatives in their product lineup.
