While the goal of the Astell&Kern KANN line is to provide ultra-high power output to drive any headphone or IEM, KANN ALPHA has not forgotten the essence of being a portable DAP, so you can enjoy a near-perfect sound experience wherever you are.

• The first Astell&Kern DAP to feature a 4.4mm balanced output
• Complete separation of balanced lines to provide noise-free output
• Crosstalk of 141dB and top-notch audio performance through a complete circuit redesign
• Powerful 12Vrms ultra-high-output support
• 14 ½ hours of continuous playback
• Equipped with the latest version of Bluetooth, Bluetooth 5.0
• Artistic design and ultra-precision metal shaping technology that Astell&Kern has perfected

First DAP to Feature 4.4mm Balanced Output Port, Completely Noise-Free
The newly introduced feature of the 4.4mm balanced output port is exciting, however, the most important part is how we implemented it. Unlike other manufacturer’s products, KANN ALPHA has physically separated the 2.5mm and 4.4mm outputs using micro relays. When 2.5mm and 4.4mm structures are connected only to the mute circuit they do not prevent noise interference that may occur because each signal is not properly blocked.

KANN ALPHA boasts noise-free output because we built in an independent structure that completely blocks interference from outputs that are not being used and to be switched off, therefore, preventing the noise from occurring.

Hey Guys!

How would you compare SQ on this unit to that of Chord Mojo? That is only barrier for me , as use case for Kann is perfect - battery, streaming, unified UX, 4.4 out
