iBasso Kunlun Headphone Amplifier

Electrical Disclaimer Description

For sale is an Ibasso Kunlun headphone amplifier with original box and manual. It is in excellent cosmetic and working condition and would suit new buyer. I used it briefly with Hifiman HE1000 headphones and there was plenty of power from the Kunlun. This headphone amplifier was dead quiet in operation.

The iBasso Kunlun is a pure, fully balanced desktop headphone amplifier utilizing innovative GaNFET (Gallium Nitride) technology. It delivers an incredibly powerful 7.4 Watts per channel into 32 ohms, yet remains cool to the touch. It offers a neutral, highly resolving, and dynamic soundstage ideal for power-hungry planars and sensitive IEMs alike.

Sound Profile

The Kunlun leans heavily toward a neutral, monitor-like reference tuning rather than being heavily coloured or warm. Reviewers highlight its bottomless sub-bass extension (thanks to its DC-coupled design) and highly articulate, non-fatiguing treble. Because it is extremely resolving, it pairs best with high-end DACs and accurately translates the quality of upstream gear.

Build & Ergonomics

The desktop amp features a sleek, CNC-machined aluminium chassis with excellent heat dissipation. The volume pot is highly damped and exceptionally well-balanced, which allows for perfect channel matching at very low volumes.

Who is it for?

The Kunlun punches well above its weight class. It is an exceptional "end-game" tier option if you own a diverse collection of headphones—from hard-to-drive planars to hyper-sensitive IEMs—and prefer untarnished, transparent audio delivery.
