The Douk Audio K5 is a DAC headphones amplifier based on an audiophile chipset for excellent performance. Its chipset comprises an ES9038Q2M DAC chip, a SA9312 DSP, an OPA1678 OPA and an SGM8262 amplifier chip. It is therefore able to support high-resolution sampling rates up to PCM 32 bit 384kHz and DSD256, while delivering up to 560mW of power @ 32 ohm, i.e. output power capable of powering audio headphones or IEMs with an impedance of 16 to 600 ohm. Additional features include treble and bass tone control and gain adjustment. Furthermore, the Douk Audio K5's connectivity is quite extensive, with a USB-C input, a Toslink optical input, an RCA line output, a Toslink optical output and, of course, two headphones outputs: jack 3.5mm and jack 6.35mm. This desktop device is the perfect ally for anyone seeking audio quality and versatility of use.
Based on an ES9038Q2M chip and a SA9312 DSP/USB interface, the Douk Audio K5 supports sampling rates up to PCM 32bit 384kHz and DSD256, while offering an SNR of 121dB and a THD of just 0.0007% for rich, detailed, noise-free listening.
On the headphone amplification side, OPA1678 AOPs and an SGM8262 amplifier chip deliver output power of up to 560mW @ 32 ohm on its 6.35mm jack headphone output, and up to 470mW @ 32 ohm on its 3.5mm jack headphone output. This power capability makes it compatible with many of the headphones and IEMs available on the market, whether they have an impedance of 16 ohms or 600 ohms.
Thanks to two potentiometers, the user can adjust the bass and treble for a personalized rendering, or bypass the function so as not to distort the audio signal.
A Low (L) / High (H) gain control adjusts the headphones outputs to -6dB or 0dB.
