Description

The PD10 is a high-end digital audio player designed as a bold step beyond Astell&Kern’s existing lineup, redefining the company’s volume control and aesthetic language in favor of a “breaking away from the normal” approach. It employs a quad-DAC configuration using AKM’s latest AK4498EX chips within a “HEXA” circuit topology that fully separates digital and analog signal paths for ultra-clean sound reproduction. To make life easier for users, it supports Smart Gain automatic amplifier matching, which senses your headphones’ impedance and switches between normal and high gain modes without manual adjustment. The bundled cradle lets the PD10 double as a home-audio component—offering charging, digital input, and XLR outputs for integration with a hi-fi setup. Rounding out its feature set are support for AirPlay, a high-capacity 5,770 mAh battery rated at about 15 hours playback, and a large 6-inch full-HD display for comfortable control and navigation.

– HEXA Audio Circuit Structure : Complete Separation of Digital and Analog Signal Processing
