Description
The KANN ULTRA is built for audiophiles who demand desktop-level power on the go. With up to 16Vrms output across four preset gain modes and dual ESS ES9039MPRO DACs handling up to 32-bit/768kHz PCM and native DSD512, it drives even the most demanding headphones directly from the player. The Triple Output Mode provides three independently optimized connections—Headphone Out, Pre-Out, and Line Out—each tuned through TERATON ALPHA technology so demanding headphones, detailed IEMs, and external amplifiers each receive their ideal signal path. Digital Audio Remaster upsamples lower-resolution tracks for more nuanced playback, while the Crimson UX interface with album art search keeps your library easy to navigate. Head-Fi users describe the output as powerful enough to run high-impedance headphones without an external amplifier. At 390 grams with an 8,400 mAh battery delivering up to 11 hours of playback, the KANN ULTRA balances portable convenience with serious audio performance.
