Electrostatic drivers are the ultimate in high-resolution audio, bringing your music to life. These drivers allow you to hear every subtle embellishment, revealing a whole new side to your music. Each driver consists of an ultra-lightweight diaphragm suspended between conductive plates. When the signal hits the plates, the diaphragm moves, resulting in distortion-free audio with exceptional accuracy and definition.
The KSE1200 is the perfect choice for audiophiles and music lovers on the go. Its compact amplifier design delivers top-notch performance in a portable format. The amplifier fits comfortably in your hand and features an ergonomic, sleek, and robust design. The knurled volume knob doubles as an on/off switch, providing a satisfying tactile response.
