The Astell&Kern KANN incorporates a high-performance amplifier into a player for a perfect merge of two independent devices. The KANN is able to drive high-impedance headphones without the need of an additional amplifier and reliably reproduces high-quality sound with low-impedance speakers. The device is equipped with a line-out circuit designed to set the output values in 4 levels depending on the user’s listening preference. The selectable output function allows to fine-tune the sound to suit a home system, car audio or any other listening environment. The KANN is equipped with a single AKM AK4490 DAC chip that is capable of bit to bit playback up to 32bit 384kHz and native DSD playback up to 11.2MHz, delivering detailed, distortion-free sound just as the artist intended.

KANN has an internal memory of 64GB but is easily boosted via the unit’s dual memory card slots that supports both standard SD cards and micro SD cards. The memory is expandable up to 512 GB to easily handle larger audio files. The device is also capable of fast charging through its USB-C type connector with 1 hour of charge resulting up to 6.5 hours of playback. When full charged, the 6,200 mAh battery offers 15 hours of continuous playback.
