The FiiO KB3 is something quite special, namely a keyboard with colorfully backlit keys as well as a DAC in one device…
You probably won’t get it any crazier. But perhaps the FiiO KB3 keyboard is a godsend for some audio enthusiasts. Because if you really can’t do without music while working, then the KB3 is the right choice. This musical keyboard also incorporates a DAC, made up of two CS43131 DAC chips. The maximum achievable PCM quality is 384 kHz / 32 bit and DSD up to DSD256. Thanks to an also present low noise headphone amplifier, you can directly plug in both balanced (4.4 mm connector) and unbalanced (traditional 3.5 mm minijack) ones.
Mechanical keys
Since the keyboard is already connected to a computer via a USB cable, everything works immediately. Nice detail: the board itself features mechanical keys. Then again, there is no numeric keypad, so mainly something for text writers.
The price of the FiiO KB3 is only $149, so no barrier here.
