Astell & Kern’s New Mobile DAC: 32-bit Audio Without Compromise

The AK HC3 also employs ESS’s more recent ES9219MQ twin DAC. A built-in LED even indicates if you’re utilising a high-resolution audio format. The USB-C connector is compatible with Macs, Windows PCs, Android phones, and many tablets (including latest iPads), although an iPhone Lightning converter is supplied in the package. For Android users, a special app is provided to fine-tune the output.
