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
- Bluetooth 5.0 and 24-bit wireless codec (aptX™ HD, LDAC) support
- Replay Gain function uniformly adjusts volume playback from sound sources up to 24-bit/192 kHz.
Higher output, more compact design
As the power output increases, so does the noise level that adversely effects the audio performance. Through innovative integrated circuit design, Astell&Kern is able to achieve a low noise-level while hitting the new 15Vrms ‘Super’ output setting, and all inside a more compact design.
