The new generation of FIIO's 5 Series audio dongles inspire endless enjoyment with avant-garde innovation and appeal to quality enthusiasts with their practical design. They combine great sound, ergonomics, fun, and aesthetics all in one small, convenient package. The KA15 has been completely revamped inside and out, combining FIIO's experienced audio know-how on the inside with elements of a retro tape recorder exterior.
Powered by an audiophile-grade DSP, the KA15 features a 10-band, high-precision lossless PEQ. FIIO's proprietary advanced tuning algorithm ensures smooth, high-quality operation. Through the control app or web interface*, you can not only simulate or modify the headphone frequency response curve, but also export, import, share, and save EQ curves. Whether you use the officially recommended tuning or share your tuning with other enthusiasts online, you can easily set your EQ.
Equipped with a high-performance, low-power processor and high-precision chip, the KA15 innovatively features real-time voltage and current monitoring for dynamic power adjustment. By recognizing your device's playback status, it intelligently adjusts overall power consumption, allowing your phone to run on less power. Set a timer for music playback at night, and once the timer ends, the KA15 will enter ultra-low-power sleep mode - no need to worry about your phone running low on battery when you wake up the next day.
The KA15 is the first dongle of its kind to use a 0.95-inch IPS true-color LCD screen, supporting both Chinese and English displays. The settings menu has been designed to be more intuitive and user-friendly. Furthermore, the KA15 features a retro dynamic UI that combines technological innovation with classic design. The imitation spinning tape lets you experience the uniqueness of the KA15.
Acquired Desktop Mode - Enable Desktop Mode for more power. 560mW+560mW balanced output power. An astounding 207% increase compared to the KA5. This gives the KA15 the headroom to drive both low and high impedance headphones.
Dual CS43198 - High-performance USB chip, dual CS43198 flagship DAC + dual high-performance SGM8262 op-amps combine to deliver high performance in a small area, allowing the KAW15 dongle to deliver higher sound quality than its small size would suggest.
Supported Decoders - KA15 supports 768kHz/32bit and DSD256 sampling rates, easily processes various lossless audio formats, and fulfills your demands for great sound. What's more, it is Hi-Res Audio certified, which is a testament to its superior sound quality.
Intelligent App Control - FIIO's talented software team has made the KA15 fully controllable through the FIIO Control app*. Now you can adjust PEQ, channel balance, UAC mode, volume, button mode, screen brightness, screen sleep time, theme, and more. More features will be added through future firmware updates. *FIIO Control app control of the KA15 is only supported by the Android version of the app.
The microphone is supported as part of the 3.5mm jack and supports CTIA standard in-line controls, so you can use the microphone as well as control music playback and volume.
Coaxial Output Support - The 3.5mm jack also functions as an SPDIF output, allowing you to connect to an external decoder for more ways to listen. Unrestricted HiFi - A detachable cable and compatibility with Android, iOS, iPadOS, Windows, and macOS allow seamless connection to a wide range of devices for a true HiFi experience without limitations.
