KANN MAX uses an analogue volume control for a rich dynamic range without loss. The audio circuit is split into DAC, volume and amplifier blocks, each with its own power supply IC, so each gets stable power and the ripple noise of the DC-DC supply is removed, minimising noise that an op-amp would otherwise amplify. To fit it all in, the PCB, the same size as the KANN ALPHA’s, is divided into 12 layers, and the physical size of the amplifier parts was reviewed.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cimg src=\"https:\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0960\/3199\/8339\/files\/astell-kern-kann-max-digital-audio-player-photo-power-blocks.jpg?v=1791402878\" alt=\"Separate power supplies for the DAC, volume and amplifier blocks of the Astell\u0026amp;Kern KANN MAX\" loading=\"lazy\"\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eQuad DAC\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eKANN MAX is the first KANN with four ES9038Q2M DACs.

The aluminium body has streamlined surfaces that suggest music flowing, contrasted with stainless steel and glass. The bottom curves outwards for a more ergonomic grip, and the polished stainless steel right side and the triangular-patterned volume wheel create a striking contrast; a straight pattern behind the wheel lets you see the volume change, and the hidden wheel light reflects off the side and the knurling. The rear glass has a new etched pattern of Astell\u0026amp;Kern “A” logos in different sizes and inclinations, adding depth and flow.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cimg src=\"https:\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0960\/3199\/8339\/files\/astell-kern-se300-music-player-photo-design.jpg?v=1791403269\" alt=\"Etched rear glass and stainless steel side of the Astell\u0026amp;Kern SE300\" loading=\"lazy\"\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ctable\u003e\u003ctbody\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eDAC\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eFully discrete 24-bit R-2R (96 resistors, 0.01%, TCR10) · customised FPGA (OS\/NOS) · quad-core CPU\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eAmplifier\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eClass A \/ Class AB switchable · normal and high gain\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eFormats\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eWAV, FLAC, WMA, MP3, OGG, APE, AAC, ALAC, AIFF, DFF, DSF · PCM 8kHz–384kHz (up to 32-bit) · DSD64–DSD256\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eOutputs\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e3.5mm unbalanced and optical · 2.5mm balanced (4-pole) · 4.4mm balanced (5-pole) · all 1.3Ω\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eOutput level\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eNormal 2 \/ 4Vrms · High 3 \/ 6Vrms (unbalanced \/ balanced, no load)\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eFrequency response\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e±0.038dB (20Hz–20kHz) · ±0.45dB (20Hz–70kHz)\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eS\/N · crosstalk\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e114 \/ 115dB (normal gain), 115 \/ 115dB (high gain) · −135 \/ −144dB (unbalanced \/ balanced, 1kHz)\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eTHD+N · IMD\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e0.006% · IMD SMPTE 0.005%\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eClock jitter\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e25ps typical · reference clock 500 femtoseconds\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eWireless\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eWi-Fi 802.11 a\/b\/g\/n\/ac (2.4\/5GHz) · Bluetooth 5.0 (A2DP, AVRCP, aptX HD, LDAC)\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eScreen and storage\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e5.46-inch 1080 × 1920 touch · 256GB · microSD up to 1TB\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eBattery\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e5,050mAh · about 12 hours · charge about 3.5 hours (9V 1.67A)\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eSize and weight\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e76.45 × 139.45 × 17.6mm (W × H × D) · about 317g · aluminium and stainless steel, Platinum Silver\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/tbody\u003e\u003c\/table\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eGood to know\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eUSB-C charges the player and connects it to a Windows 10\/11 or Mac computer.

An oversized pure copper flywheel, 30.4mm across and 4mm thick, keeps the tape moving as smoothly as possible. The motor runs from a 4.2V supply, higher than the 1.8V or 3V typical in today’s players, with a speed stabilisation circuit that adjusts the drag to hold the speed steady, reducing pitch wobble and letting the CP13 handle more tape types. Wow and flutter is 0.2% or less.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cimg src=\"https:\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0960\/3199\/8339\/files\/fiio-cp13-cassette-player-photo-movement.jpg?v=1791318666\" alt=\"The custom cassette movement and copper flywheel of the FiiO CP13\" loading=\"lazy\"\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eA carefully selected tape head\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFiiO only accepts the best tape heads from its supplier, fewer than 40% of production, and controls the build so that the left and right channels are far better matched than in typical players. The custom permalloy head has a thickened cover that shields it from interference and reduces wear for a longer life.

High-precision film resistors are used throughout the I\/V, filter and THX stages, and eight Panasonic film capacitors in the low-pass filter keep the two channels and every frequency band consistent, for a detailed, stable sound.

A hybrid of 20-bit R2R and a 4-bit string DAC, in an eight-channel, fully differential discrete design with 344 precision resistors, is controlled by iBasso’s FPGA-Master 3.0 and a hardware resistor compensation network. The result is 130dB of dynamic range and THD+N better than −97dB, overcoming the zero-crossing distortion common to R2R designs with almost perfect linearity. Around it are non-SRC Android 13 and the Linux-based Mango OS, a Snapdragon 665, 4.4mm and 3.5mm headphone outputs, a 4.4mm line out, and a 12V input that unlocks up to 1,575mW per channel.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cimg src=\"https:\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0960\/3199\/8339\/files\/ibasso-dx270-r2r-ultra-digital-audio-player-photo-hero.jpg?v=1791344182\" alt=\"iBasso DX270 R2R Ultra player, front and back\" loading=\"lazy\"\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eEight-channel, fully differential R2R\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe DX270 is fully balanced, with L+, L−, R+ and R− each containing two R2R DACs: an “8-channel R2R” layout.

Where a signal passes through zero between positive and negative voltages, traditional single-channel decoding can leave gaps; the differential output of the two DACs fills them for smoother transitions, keeping the DAC linear even with small signals and pushing R2R dynamic range to an industry-leading 130dB.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cimg src=\"https:\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0960\/3199\/8339\/files\/ibasso-dx270-r2r-ultra-digital-audio-player-photo-eightch.jpg?v=1791344187\" alt=\"Two R2R DACs per phase in the iBasso DX270\" loading=\"lazy\"\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003e20-bit R2R plus a 4-bit string DAC\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFor the most significant bits, the DX270 uses a string DAC, which approximates the target voltage directly through series resistors and switches.

A resistor network of 128 high-precision thin-film resistors (four groups of 32) converts the digital signal to analogue. Before it, an FPGA enhances the digital signal and outputs separate L+, L−, R+ and R− bitstreams for fully balanced decoding, while the audio bridge passes DSD through unaltered and converts PCM to a 1-bit DSD512 bitstream, re-clocking, de-jittering and re-shaping the data on the way.
