The KB3 uses two high-performance and efficient CS43131 DACs as well as two low-noise SGM8262 op-amps, capable of providing 550mW of output power, comparable to desktop amps. Enjoy high-quality sound with any headphones.

It is equipped with 3.5 mm single-ended and 4.4 mm balanced headphone jacks, allowing you to connect it to a variety of headphones.

In gasket mount design, multiple layers help to greatly absorb shocks and reduce noise.

It's neat for sure. I'd be buying custom keycaps for it so quickly tho

550mW into what resistance?

550mW into what resistance? I wish marketers would understand that the number is meaningless without context. $220. You could just buy a K7 and a $20 keyboard, and have much better sound. Although the volume knob on the keyboard is nice.

KB3 has the KA13 dongle DAC inside which costs $79 alone. So for the Hifi keyboard, $149 is pretty good, I think.

Some manufacturers take /r/mechanicalheadpens too seriously.
