Brief listening impressions can be tricky (especially with new gear, not broken in) but my first thoughts about the KA17 is that it’s a hell of a bargain. I’m assuming the technology around these dongles is just getting perfected at this point a good bit beyond what’s been achieved in the past. The 120 step volume is crazy impressive to me as well.Just pulled the trigger on a new KA17 from Amazon. Thanks to @o0genesis0o and @spruce for your recent thoughts on its sonics vs the m15
Default mode by itself would most likely seem an upgrade over the V60. Ill find out soon enough!
