Astell&Kern Guide to DAPs, IEMs & More
Discover the Leaders in Portable HiFi Audio - Not just your average MP3 players
Astell&Kern is a company whose name tells a story. Astell means "star" in Greek, and Kern means "core“ in German. Together, these words refer to the company's aim to continuously reach for the core of music — the "original sound." The name Astell&Kern speaks to the company's obsession with fidelity, ensuring the listener hears music exactly as the artist intended. With modern metals, sharp edges, and sleek designs, Astell&Kern products look like the future. High-end portable audio is something Astell&Kern does exceedingly well, and they have some of the best products out there.
Why Astell&Kern?
Here at Moon Audio, we vet every manufacturer we carry because we want to provide our customers with brands that we support and are proud to use ourselves. Carrying Astell&Kern products was a no-brainer for Moon Audio Owner and Founder Drew Baird, P.E., who says the company's products are reliable, simple to use, and innovative .
"Why Astell&Kern? Reliability, simple to use, innovative, and a great price-to-performance ratio. I actually like that Astell&Kern uses a closed, modified Android operating system. There's always at the forefront of innovation before anybody else. I mean, they were the first digital audio player to come out with a 2.5mm balanced output and now they have transitioned nicely to the 4.4mm, but kept the 2.5mm for folks that purchased a large stash of headphones and IEMs that utilize that connector," said Drew Baird, P.E.
History of Astell&Kern
In 2012, a South Korean home electronics company called iRiver (now known as Dreamus) debuted the AK100 portable media player, an MP3 player for high-resolution audio. It was dubbed an "iPod on steroids." It cost $699, and it prompted questions like, "What does a $700 iPod sound like?" The answer was that it sounded really good, despite its price tag and lack of features like wi-fi. Later that year, after releasing the AKR01 in-ear monitor, iRiver launched Astell&Kern as a subsidiary.
"We use the power of music to change your life." -Astell&Kern
Astell&Kern is dedicated to delivering best-in-class high-resolution audio devices for the playback of MQS (Mastering Quality Sound) studio-quality audio. Combining design and engineering excellence, craftsmanship and high-quality materials with state-of-the-art audio technology, Astell&Kern's range of award-winning portable music players and IEMs deliver the ultimate listening experiences.
What Makes Astell&Kern Different?
Astell&Kern products stylistically stand out from the crowd with their modern metals aesthetic, sharp edges, and sleek designs. AK digital music players look like the future. The company is best known for portable high-end music players, or hi-res “iPods.” As consumers learn about the need for higher resolution music files to feed our high-quality media players, those made by Astell&Kern have thrived.
We think Astell&Kern makes some of the best music players in the world. Plus, their technology is easy to learn and navigate as a newbie or a technology wizard. If you love to listen to music “on the go” and want hi-fi sound, AK digital audio players (DAPs) are essential listening gear with Mastering Quality Sound (MQS).
MQS includes high-resolution digital music recording formats from 16-bit/44.1kHz to 24-bit/192kHz. Sound engineering tech-speak can be confusing. More is usually better. Higher amounts of information can mean better sound with crisper highs and fuller lows (bass). The trick is to process and play as much information as possible or as much information as your recordings started with in the first place. Playing all the high-res information captured during the music recording process is Astell&Kern’s expertise.
Astell&Kern Technology
TERATON ALPHA
TERATON ALPHA is AK's ultimate Sound Solution to produce audio playback that is close to the original sound through the use of effective power noise removal, efficient power consumption and amplification without compromise through the audio output interface.Many people think “It is the DAC that determines the sound in the DAP, and in the end, if you use the same DAC, the sound will be similar for each product.” The DAC does play a large part of the sound signature in a DAP, but it's not the only factor that determines the level of sound.
DAPs can be largely divided into three sections: power, amplifier, and interface.
- Power: Astell&Kern's audio technology effectively removes power noise and converts the signal, which is essential to the power of the audio.
- Amplifier: The reason why the same DAC produces different sound signatures is because of differences in amp design. A&K's advanced AMP technology features efficient power consumption and powerful amplification that delivers performance without compromise.
- Interface: The audio interface that converts digital signals to analog and outputs then is composed of technology developed by AK that has been enhanced over the years.
TERATON ALPHA features Astell&Kern's patented technologies that are the result of tens of thousands of hours of continuous research and development to produce sound close to the original sound the artist and producer intended.

Roon Endpoints
For those who enjoy streaming with Roon, the good news is that newer AK players are Roon Ready.
What is Roon? Roon is a rich and engaging way to browse, organize, and listen to music. Artist photos, credits, bios, reviews, lyrics, tour dates, and composers are located automatically and then interconnected by links to build a surfable digital magazine. Roon is also a multi-room, multi-user networked audio platform offering features such as bit-perfect playback, DSD and PCM upsampling, multichannel support, and Signal Path display.
What is Roon Ready? Roon Ready network devices have Roon's streaming technology built in, and are certified by Roon Labs to provide the highest level of quality and performance in network streaming. Being Roon Ready means that Astell&Kern players transparently discover and connect to Roon without any configuration, and bit-perfect audio is delivered from Roon to the player. This allows you to stream music from your device using Roon as your music management and playback engine.

Astell&Kern + Android Transfer
How compatible is Android OS with PC and MAC? Believe it or not, you don't have to work for the Geek Squad at Best Buy to get music from your computer to your spiffy new Android-based DAP music player. It's not quite plug-and-play, but it's honestly not that difficult, and we're here to walk you through the process step by step.
Astell&Kern BT SINK
BT Sink allows you to connect your AK player to an external device via Bluetooth, similar to connecting a smartphone to a BT speaker. This allows you to access your local music library and play it at the highest available codec. For instance, if you have music stored locally on your phone or laptop and want to access said library that might not be your music player, you can connect it to the AK player for immediate file playback though the DAP itself via Bluetooth sync (or BT Sink).
AK File Drop
AK File Drop makes wireless file transfers simple. Using AK File Drop, you can freely transfer files wirelessly through a PC, smartphone, or FTP program on the same network. Music file management is now possible with a wireless solution. Whereas BT Sink can stream your music from another device, AK File Drop can actually transfer those files to local storage on your device.

Headphones & IEMs
Popular with performing artists and audiophiles, in-ear monitors, or IEMs, are a fantastic option for people who want the fidelity of full-size headphones with the portability and convenience of earbuds. While Astell&Kern is primarily known for their digital audio players, they have come out with several fine IEMs over the years that echo the design elements and sound quality of their DAPs. Astell&Kern has teamed up with other audio manufacturers for many of their IEMs, including Empire Ears, JH Audio, Beyerdynamic, and Campfire Audio. They also collaborated on a full-size headphone with Beyerdynamic.
AK ZERO1 In-Ear Monitors
The AK ZERO1 was the first fully in-house IEM endeavor for Astell&Kern. It's a tribrid design, combining a planar magnetic driver, two balanced armature drivers, and a dynamic driver. The AK ZERO1 IEM focuses on combining the sounds of three unique driver technologies into one IEM. The AK ZERO1 harmonizes the characteristics of each driver to deliver the most natural sound to your ears. An ideal frequency response was created through the crossover network, which is designed based on a thorough understanding of each driver’s parameters. At the same time, each driver is carefully placed in the optimal 3D position, enclosed in specifically designed acoustic chambers manufactured with precise 3D printing technology. By implementing this, Astell&Kern eliminated unnecessary movement and resonance of the drivers to ensure a stable performance.
Sound: Neutral, Musical
Standout Genres: Rock, Metal, R&B, EDM
PATHFINDER In-Ear Monitors
The hybrid PATHFINDER is an Astell&Kern collaboration with Campfire Audio.

Featuring a warm and rich sound, the PATHFINDER has a new Dual-Chamber Balanced Armature (BA) Driver from Knowles for the key part of the midrange, two BA drivers for high frequencies, as well as two dynamic drivers with a hybrid diaphragm that create bass and midrange. Knowles’ new ‘Dual Chamber’ Balanced Armature Driver, used for the first time ever in PATHFINDER, is an innovative driver in which a single coil operates two individual diaphragms. It’s like a twin cylinder engine – delivering more horsepower and smoother operation compared to one with a single, larger piston.
Sound: Bass meets clarity
Standout Genres: Rock, Folk, Bluegrass, Jam Band Music

AK PA10 Amplifier
The AK PA10 is the first Class-A portable amplifier by Astell&Kern.

AK HC2 USB-C Dual DAC Cable
With its compact size and uncompromising performance, the AK HC2 makes it easy to enjoy real Hi-Fi sound anytime, anywhere. High-resolution sound on streaming services allows you to fully appreciate the rich tones and emotional nuance of your music. However, as headphone ports disappear on smartphones, it makes it increasingly difficult to use wired earphones that deliver high quality sound, and people experience the limitations of wireless transmission and slow response speeds. Music lovers who wish to enjoy true high-quality Hi-Fi sound rather than what is currently being delivered by smartphone wireless standards and computers' built-in sound cards are becoming deeply concerned.
Dragon Audio Cables
Audio cables are the icing on your audio cake, and they can make or break your listening experience. At Moon Audio, we craft custom cables to improve the sound of your headphones and other audio gear. Your choice of cable is going to depend on a couple of factors, the first being the sound signature of your DAP. We recommend the Silver Dragon Headphone Cable for warmer DAPs and the Black Dragon Headphone Cable for more analytical-sounding DAPs. That being said, the sound signature of your headphones is also going to be a factor. Bottom line: If you are looking to add weight and warmth to the overall sound, or if you want a smoother top end, go with the Black Dragon. If you are looking for more detail, clarity, and top-end sizzle, go with the Silver Dragon.
