Hi, for this information, we will tell when K17 is official released.

it was shown on CES.

No informaition yet?)

Would love to see:
roon-ready for k17 or k19s ?

s15 too big.
R9 - I don't need the full android.

k17/k19 form factor is ideal, but having lan as input - roon-ready would be a great selling point.

I would like to see Tidal Connect and Upnp/DLNA support. But the most important thing for me of course is how it will sound

Do we have specific dimensions yet? It looks pretty deep from the available pictures

Any update concerning availability date?

Very cool. An intriguing cross between the K19 and the S15 - I own both and can see the traits! Looking at the LAN/wireless connectivity I am optimistic this will be a Roon-endpoint. That should make it a very compelling option in this price point.

So powerful and multi-functional and good looking as well

750 $ in China!

Roon ready specified

I truly hope the replacement of the K7 will be a mini version of this!

Roon ready specified

So there will be no Tidal Connect or DLNA/Upnp support...

The k17 looks excellent. Smaller than I expected.

On the product page there are 6 different scenarios/uses. The last one has the line out of a dap plugged into the analog in of the k17 so that you can use peq. peq/dsp requires adc? Does all analog audio input have to go through the adc->peq->DAC process? Not a function I’d use often, but as a desktop hub there would be times I’d want the signal to stay analog.

The k17 looks excellent

Agree!

The only thing that I am missing:
- USB Audio out

for use-case to use k17 only as a transport and bypass digital audio it to external DAC.

Possibly they will implement it in K19pro (K19 with streaming functionality)

What is the point to use K17 as a digital tranport??? You can use your smarphone as a digital tranport to any dac from usb-c... It would be at least very strange to use all in one great sounding desktop dac/amp as a digital transport to another dac
