DESCRIPTION
FIIO INTRODUCES THE ALL-NEW KA2 HI-RES CERTIFIED BALANCED DAC & AMP IN COLLABORATION WITH JADE AUDIO
FiiO introduces "Jade Audio", a new subsidiary brand of FiiO Electronic Technology Co., Ltd. The company has a team of engineers who have empirical knowledge in acoustics. Continuing the legacy FiiO in collaboration with Jade Audio has introduced the all-new KA2 Balanced DAC & Amp. The overall audio output of the KA2 has a much more refined sound and leans more toward the organic end. A precise tone and timbre are delivered. Over the whole frequency range, the sound appears more cohesive, satisfying the coherency criteria. Power output from KA2 is outstanding. Even over extended listening periods, the KA2's overall sound is soothing and incredibly enjoyable. KA2, the newest product from FiiO and Jade Audio, is a well-rounded pocket package that allows you to drive low-sensitivity and high-impedance headphones on the go (up to 300 ohms). The KA2 has been certified to be Hi-Res Audio capable, according to the standards developed by the Japan Audio Association (JAS) and the Consumer Electronics Association (CEA). You can count on the KA2 to deliver precise, high-fidelity audio that is true to the original recording.
FEATURES DUAL CIRRUS LOGIC DAC CHIPS, KA2 DELIVERS EXCEPTIONAL PERFORMANCE WITH ACCURACY AND EFFICIENCY
The FiiO KA2 embeds dual Cirrus Logic CS43131 DAC chips, each capable of producing Hi-Res audio with accuracy and efficiency. The CS43131 combines a next-generation, low-power audio DAC with a high-fidelity headphone amplifier to provide a superior system-level audio performance without draining the battery life of the source device. The KA2 supports sampling rates of 32Bit/384kHz PCM (Pulse Code Modulation) and DSD256 (Direct Stream Digital), delivering highly detailed and lossless audio. The FiiO KA2 has good soundstage presentation and precise imaging capabilities. The tonality is natural and smooth, and the male and female vocals sound full-bodied. The bass comes off as tight and punchy. The bass is well controlled and is articulate in its presentation. KA2 also excels in the treble region delivering a crisp, clear, and very holographic and airy sound presentation. Treble is clean with an acceptable amount of energy with zero sibilance. The FiiO KA2 is here to deliver an articulate performance that will satisfy even the most discerning audiophiles.

The FiiO KA2 hosts a 4.4mm balanced output, which offers maximum output power of 153mW at 32 ohms. The KA2 has a signal-to-noise ratio of 131dB and THD+N of only 0.0005%, and impedance adaptation of 16 to 300 ohms. You can easily power high impedance (up to 300 ohms) and low sensitivity headphones/IEMs with ease. These functionalities contribute to clear; and accurate sound reproduction. It works with Windows, macOS, Android, and iOS. The FiiO KA2 pairs up quickly with your collection of headphones and IEMs. You can choose the audio input interface with type-C or lightning variant. The FiiO KA2 is also compatible with the FiiO control app, which allows you to adjust settings from the comfort of your smartphone.
EXCEPTIONAL INDUSTRIAL DESIGN WITH ALL METAL BUILD AND RING-SHAPED LED INDICATOR THAT DISPLAYS SAMPLING RATES
The KA2 follows the industrial design language as with the other members of the KA family – featuring luxurious aesthetics and all-metal construction in a striking black and gold colour scheme. The FiiO KA2 is made entirely of high-quality, long-lasting metal, and while having numerous functions, it has a sleek appearance. Its rectangular, slightly curved metal chassis gives it a relatively rugged appearance. The metal accents look elegant, giving KA2 a premium look and feel. The ring-shaped RGB status indicator lets you know the kind of audio format you are playing at a single glance. The colour blue indicates a sampling rate of 48kHz or below, and the colour yellow indicates a sampling rate above 48kHz. The KA2 also comes with a Type-C female USB-A adapter.

Mac:
1. The KA2 runs driver-free on macOS.
2. When connecting to the Type-C port on the computer, just use the Type-C edition of the KA2. If it is connected to a USB-A port, just use the USB-A to Type-C adapter to complete the connection.
3. Select the FiiO KA2/FiiO K series as the audio output device of the computer.
Linux:
The KA2 runs driver-free on Linux. Theoretically, connect the KA2 to the computer to use it directly. However, since there are too many versions of the Linux system, compatibility cannot be guaranteed. If there is a problem, it is recommended to try other data cables or switch to other USB ports. No recognition probably means nonsupport.
Does the FiiO KA2 support in-line control and answering phone calls?
1. There is no physical button on the FiiO KA2, so in-line control will not be supported.
2. Since different smartphones vary in USB phone call permissions, the in-line control and phone call functions of the KA2 are temporally unavailable.
3. An incoming call will be passed out through the speaker and microphone of the mobile phone. So you can pick up the phone to answer the call without unplugging the KA2.
Colors of the RGB indicator light in FiiO KA2
The indicator light of the FiiO KA2 has 3 colors, each of which corresponds with different sampling rates (as shown in the table below). If the color does not correspond with the sampling rate, please check if the connected device or the settings of the music app has a problem, and if the music file is SRC processed.
48kHz or below sampling rate - Blue light
Greater than 48kHz sampling rate - Yellow light
Digital input: DSD - Green light
About the Exclusive USB Audio Access Mode
Due to system and hardware differences of certain Android mobile phones, there may be some permission conflicts and compatibility issues when they are working in the Exclusive USB Audio Access Mode. Here are some situations we have noticed.
1. For some mobile phones, third-party apps are forbidden in the background by default in their power management policies. This will cause a stop on the playback after a few seconds when the music app is working in the Exclusive USB Audio Access Mode. If it happens, please set the app to stay working while asleep in the battery management setting of the mobile phone.
2. When the music app is working under the Exclusive USB Audio Access Mode, the sound may be stuttered or paused when operating other apps. We are working on this issue. It is suggested to focus on listening to music when using the Exclusive USB Audio Access Mode, or disable the Exclusive USB Audio Access Mode when listening to music.

Mac:
1. The KA2 runs driver-free on macOS.
2. When connecting to the Type-C port on the computer, just use the Type-C edition of the KA2. If it is connected to a USB-A port, just use the USB-A to Type-C adapter to complete the connection.
3. Select the FiiO KA2/FiiO K series as the audio output device of the computer.
Linux:
The KA2 runs driver-free on Linux. Theoretically, connect the KA2 to the computer to use it directly. However, since there are too many versions of the Linux system, compatibility cannot be guaranteed. If there is a problem, it is recommended to try other data cables or switch to other USB ports. No recognition probably means nonsupport.
Does the FiiO KA2 support in-line control and answering phone calls?
1. There is no physical button on the FiiO KA2, so in-line control will not be supported.
2. Since different smartphones vary in USB phone call permissions, the in-line control and phone call functions of the KA2 are temporally unavailable.
3. An incoming call will be passed out through the speaker and microphone of the mobile phone. So you can pick up the phone to answer the call without unplugging the KA2.

About the Exclusive USB Audio Access Mode
Due to system and hardware differences of certain Android mobile phones, there may be some permission conflicts and compatibility issues when they are working in the Exclusive USB Audio Access Mode. Here are some situations we have noticed.
1. For some mobile phones, third-party apps are forbidden in the background by default in their power management policies. This will cause a stop on the playback after a few seconds when the music app is working in the Exclusive USB Audio Access Mode. If it happens, please set the app to stay working while asleep in the battery management setting of the mobile phone.
2. When the music app is working under the Exclusive USB Audio Access Mode, the sound may be stuttered or paused when operating other apps. We are working on this issue. It is suggested to focus on listening to music when using the Exclusive USB Audio Access Mode, or disable the Exclusive USB Audio Access Mode when listening to music.
