Astell&Kern CA1000 Carryable Headphone Amp

Astell&Kern has been producing high-quality, impeccably-engineered audio products for the better part of a decade. The Acro CA1000 Carryable Headphone Amp is the perfect example of what they’ve accomplished over the years. With design inspirations equally rooted in the Cybertruck and the Mars Rover, this piece is a visual delight that also delivers with construction chops that could probably withstand the harsh environments of the red planet. Under the hood, the touchscreen based interface and multiple ports give you access to an ESS ES9068AS Quad-DAC, support for 32bit/384kHz PCM and Native DSD512 playback, dual-band Wi-Fi, and the latest Bluetooth 5.0 and wireless 24-bit codec connectivity. It even has a built-in battery so you can use this portable amplifier to enjoy your tunes in the best way possible–without needed an external power supply or outlet. It’s definitely not cheap, but if you want to truly experience your music, there are few better options.
