FOSI AUDIO DS2: Compact, Adaptable and Efficient Device

Image
FOSI AUDIO  is an audio company that quite reflects its solid reputation as an audio brand whose products offer exceptional sound quality, superb performance and good build quality at affordable price for budget-conscious audio enthusiasts. This audio company offers a variety of products from desktop preamps up to DAC/amp USB dongles. I actually publish some reviews of their products before and you can check it out at the end of this assessment What I have here that will be featured here in this review content is their latest DAC/Amp USB dongle, The  FOSI AUDIO DS2 .

TANGZU XUANWU GATE: A Grandiose Neutrality

"With bronze as a mirror one can correct one's appearance; with history as a mirror, one can understand the rise and fall of a state; with good men as a mirror, one can distinguish right from wrong" ~~Li Shimin, also known as Emperor Taizong, Second emperor of Tang Dynasty. Xuanwu Gate Incident was a pivotal moment of Tang Dynasty's history where a coup initiated by Li Shimin also known as Emperor Taizong, who was a prince back then, assassinated his elder brother, the heir apparent of the imperial throne and also his younger brother for bidding of its imperial power and also avenging its allegedly poisoning attempt by them.

TANGZU  products have their own significance in the audio market on which they named their product models from historical personalities during the Tang Dynasty era. But this time, t...
