ASTELL&KERN AK HC2 (PEE52)

The design concept of AK HC2 is "Slope." Considering that it is a portable accessory that can be connected to mobile devices, we incorporated the design philosophy of Astell&Kern’s balanced design as well as its usability.

The easy-to-grip design and the sloping side that runs diagonally on the hexagonal prism-shaped aluminum body that symbolizes the powerful performance of the 4.4mm dual DAC cable are the key features of the design.
The sharp-cut slope embodies the design identity of Astell&Kern's surfaces and lines and is designed to offer an easy connection to the headphone port. It allows the users to focus on the flow of the "AK Life" experience that unfolds as you connect your earphones.

The front is designed to be subtle, other than the parting lines and a small logo, not allowing for distraction, and is perfected with a tough, yet refined finish. This is intended so the user can focus on the shape and sculpting and make them feel like they are holding something that is more than a product.
