Astell&Kern KANN Ultra Portable Music Player

Introducing the Astell&Kern KANN ULTRA Portable Music Player – The 5th player in the brand’s award-winning KANN series and its most powerful digital audio player. Featuring Octa-core processors, the KANN ULTRA reaches new sonic heights with DAR technology, an upgraded DAC and Triple Output while delivering the most seamless user experience possible.

Your whole music library goes with you wherever you are. KANN Ultra has ample storage space and enables you to enjoy different audio formats. Whether you’re out for a long time or not, your music is always there, ready to be played.

Next-Generation Octa-Core Performance

The Astell&Kern KANN ULTRA is the first DAP in the renowned KANN series to feature Octa-Core processors, levelling up from Quad-Core in previous models. The Octa-Core element brings significant performance improvements, allowing the listener to enjoy incredible sound quality with faster system speeds and a smooth, flowing 4th-generation UI/UX.

The new internal design separates the audio circuitry from the processors. It includes CPU, memory, and wireless connection components. It is equipped with a dedicated shield to minimise heat and noise from the processor.

Upgraded Sound with Triple Output

It features a Triple Output Mode to deliver natural, detailed sound when connected to demanding headphones, highly detailed IEMs, and external devices. Instead of simply separating the output ports, Astell&Kern’s TERATON ALPHA technology allows for separate amplifier/sound design for the Headphone Out, Line Out, and Pre-Out ports to provide the optimal sound for each.

Digital Audio Remaster (DAR)

KANN ULTRA is equipped with Digital Audio Remaster (DAR) technology, which delivers fine sound at higher sample rates. DAR technology upsamples the sample rate of the sound source to go beyond the limits of the source format.

Flagship DAC

The KANN ULTRA is also designed with ESS’s newest flagship DAC to deliver a richer and more expansive sound. The ES9039MPRO has even more advanced modulation to reduce power consumption, noise, and distortions for enhanced audio performance.

Made to Last and Look Good

Moreover, besides having a sleek and lightweight body, the KANN Ultra features a black color scheme that matches any outfit. It is durable enough to withstand all sorts of your travels and entertainment activities, and powered by a battery that can last a long time, it keeps the music on for all these hours or even more.
