Intelligent dynamic power consumption
Equipped with a powerful, low-power processor and high-precision chips, the KA15 features innovative real-time monitoring of voltage and current for dynamic power adjustment. By recognising the playback status of the device, it intelligently adjusts the overall power consumption so that your phone uses less power. If you set a timer for night-time music playback, the KA15 will switch to an ultra-low power sleep mode when the timer expires - so you don't have to worry about your phone's battery running out when you wake up the next day. Visibly reduced power consumption that makes a real difference Compared to the KA5, the KA15 consumes 500% less power when audio playback is paused and 1500% less power in standby mode.
Impressive fun - An outstanding display
The KA15 is the first device with a 0.96-inch IPS true colour LCD display among comparable dongles and supports both Chinese and English language display. The setting menus have been designed to be more intuitive and user-friendly. In addition, the KA15 has a new dynamic retro user interface that combines technological innovation with classic design. With the simulated spinning belt, you can really feel the uniqueness of the KA15.
Patented Desktop Mode - Powerful Performance
Activate Desktop Mode for more power with a balanced output power of 560mW+560mW, an astonishing 207% increase over the KA5. This allows the KA15 to drive both low and high impedance headphones.

Flagship chips - All expertly matched
The golden combination of a powerful USB chip, two flagship CS43198 DACs and two high-performance SGM8262 operational amplifiers enables high performance in a small footprint, giving the tiny KA15 dongle more sound quality than its small size would suggest.
Powerful decoder - all secrets revealed
The KA15 supports sampling rates of up to 768kHz/32bit and DSD256, easily handling various lossless audio formats to meet your demands for great sound. It is also Hi-Res Audio certified, a testament to its outstanding sound quality.

A/B button modes, mode A: short press volume +/-, long press previous/next track; mode B: short press previous/next track, long press to continuously adjust volume
Inline control - one-touch music and calls
Microphones are supported* as part of the 3.5mm jack that supports the CTIA standard of inline controls - so you can not only use your microphone, but also control music playback and volume.
*Some phones may not support microphone input due to operating system limitations.
Metal construction - Refreshingly cool
