About This Model

The Astell & Kern AK HB1 is a portable Bluetooth DAC/amplifier built around the ESS ES9281AC PRO DAC chip, delivering up to 4 Vrms via its balanced 4.4mm output alongside a single-ended 3.5mm headphone jack. It connects wirelessly via Bluetooth 5.0 with support for LDAC and aptX HD high-resolution codecs, and accepts a USB-C input for wired use - notably supporting both UAC 1.0 and UAC 2.0, which extends compatibility to gaming consoles. Natively it handles DSD256 and 32-bit/384 kHz PCM playback, as well as 8X MQA rendering. A built-in microphone with Qualcomm Clear Voice Capture handles calls, and battery life reaches approximately 6 hours with a charge time of around 1.5 hours.

A great opportunity to own a Astell & Kern AK HB1 at this price point.
