The new Astell&Kern KANN MAX is the 4th model in acclaimed KANN series. Adored by audiophiles all over the world for its performance focused on high output and ultra-clear sound, the KANN MAX achieves a higher power output (15Vrms) than its award-winning predecessor, the KANN ALPHA. By applying advanced design and audio technology, this newfound power is also housed in a more compact and lightweight chassis. The result is an even wider variety of headphones, including sophisticated high impedance models, can be optimally driven without the need for additional amplification

Features..

Features 4-step gain level with maximum 15Vrms output to support a wider variety of headphones without distortion
Innovative circuit design with ultra-high output and low noise in an even smaller-sized player
Equipped with ESS ES9038Q2M Quad-DAC for exceptionally clear and balanced sound
Features proprietary TERATON ALPHA Sound Solution technology
Supports playback of high-resolution digital audio files up to 32-bit 768 kHz/Native DSD512

Higher output, more compact design
