Product Description

Astell&Kern - KANN MAX

The KANN MAX is Astell & Kern's fourth product in the KANN series of portable music players. This KANN MAX is the winner of 2022 Red Dot award for best new products created in 2022. The design is immaculate, beautiful yet angular. Its based on high output (more power to drive the most difficult headphones) and clear sound (to make all of us audiophiles giddy when listening to it work its magic). The engineers at AK gave it 4 different levels of gain and up to 15Vrms output. On top of this they made it lighter and more compact size to fit in your pocket. They have put the ESS ES9038Q2M Quad-DAC together with AStell & Kerns famous DAP technology to create the next best giant killer.

We believe that this DAP will be in Astell & Kern's product mix for many years to come. Please get your orders in ASAP to get in the que, Due to supply chain problems the first order won't last long. We are accepting pre-orders now
