Description

KA13

Portable DAC and Headphone Amplifier

 

 

 

 

 

Enjoy high-fidelity audio anywhere with the FiiO KA13, a portable USB dongle DAC featuring a fresh new design, advanced technology, and robust performance in a single compact device. It incorporates a high-performance Dual DAC chipset with two for crystal-clear decoding of high-resolution audio signals, along with capable amplification to drive your IEMs and headphones on-the-go.
 
The KA13 is also equipped with an innovative Desktop Mode. When there is sufficient USB power, or the independent power port is connected to a power adapter like your phone charger, Desktop Mode kicks things up a notch, fully unleashing the output power of the device, so you can enjoy even better performance at home. 
 
Purchases from Bay Bloor Radio include a 1-Year Warranty from FiiO Canada, with local repair/replacement without the need for international shipping.

 

 
Dual DACs
With two high-performance yet highly efficient CS43131 DAC chips, you can rediscover your music collection full of new details with the KA13.
 
The KA13 has full support for decoding high-resolution PCM (32-bit/384kHz) and Native DSD256 audio signals. Simply connect your music source with the included USB-C to USB-C or USB-C to Lightning cables, and enjoy the best of sound. 
 
Amplification with dual outputs
Dual SGM8262 high-power OPAMPs deliver a robust output, powering most IEMs and even some power-demanding headphones.
 
FiiO engineers repeatedly adjusted the design of the KA13 and finally managed to fit two headphone outputs in this compact dongle. Therefore, KA13 not only manages to fit a 3.5mm single-ended headphone output, it also manages to pack a 4.4mm balanced headphone output, which delivers added power to compatible headphones. The 3.5mm output also optionally functions as a coaxial SPDIF output. 
 

Desktop Mode

Active Desktop Mode using the dedicated "D.Mode" switch on the side of KA13. In this mode, balanced output power goes up to 550mW, allowing the KA13 to drive relatively more challenging headphones with excellent dynamics and detail.
 
Desktop Mode requires a source device to provide enough power to the dongle — computers are best, but certain Android phones can support it, albeit with increased battery usage.
 
 
Stylish design
The FiiO KA13 boasts a stunning design, featuring a premium metallic chassis and a distinctive ambient glass window that showcases RGB lighting. The CNC metal body exhibits unique lines on the front and exquisite texture on the rear, creating an aggressive yet futuristic appearance that is soft to the touch for enhanced comfort during use. 
 
The ambient light window provides quick insight into the audio sampling frequency, assuring you of the playback quality. The RGB light indicators include Light Blue for PCM≤48kHz, Yellow for PCM >48kHz, and Green for DSD signals, adding both aesthetic appeal and practical functionality.
 
Detachable cables
The KA13 features a detachable cable design. With the included USB Type-C and Lightning cables, plus the USB-C to USB-A adapter, you can listen with various devices. This modular design also extends the lifespan of your dongle DAC.
 
FiiO Control app
The KA13 supports being controlled with the FIIO Control app for Android devices. With the app, you can set the RGB lights, SPDIF output, audio filters, etc. for a more convenient experience. iOS is not supported due to Apple limitations for communication over USB.
