Key Features

Home Audio Control Hub: Features 3-in-3-out options for connecting up to three audio sources. Includes a remote control for one-touch input switching and volume adjustment—making it easy to manage your home audio system with freedom
Versatile Connectivity: Equipped with RCA1/RCA2/XLR inputs and RCA/XLR/Sub-Out outputs, the ZP3 integrates multiple devices with ease. Supports balanced XLR in/out for cleaner sound, plus RCA/XLR signal conversion for maximum compatibility
Audiophile-Grade Components: Built with premium parts including ELNA capacitors, relays, NJR NJU72315 volume IC, and gold-plated RCA jacks. These components reduce noise and distortion, delivering exceptional clarity and high-fidelity performance
Adjustable High-Pass Filter: Three-level HPF settings filter low-frequency signals from the RCA/XLR outputs, sending only mids and highs to main speakers while routing bass through the SUB-OUT—enhancing clarity, detail, and overall sound balance
Flexible Sound Customization: Includes bass/treble control with bypass function, and L/R balance knobs for personalized adjustment. Volume memory remembers settings for each input source—giving you a smarter, more convenient audio experience tailored to your taste
NOTE: When connecting ZP3 for the first time, please turn the volume knob 3-4 full turns counterclockwise to minimize the volume. This helps prevent speaker damage or hearing loss due to high default volume. ZP3 remembers the volume level for each input. We recommend reducing the volume before playback when using a new input (such as RCA1, RCA2, or XLR) for the first time.
