The hi-fi keyboard DAC is something I never imagined would exist and now I must have one

After 16 or so years in this industry, I was pretty sure I'd seen it all – and then the FiiO KB3 'hi-fi keyboard' popped up in my inbox and I immediately decided that I must have one.

It may look like a gaming-focused compact keyboard, what with those flashy mechanical keys, but the KB3 is as much about audio output as it is typed inputs. Connect it to your Mac or PC via USB and it can receive hi-res audio in up to 384kHz/32-bit and in formats including audiophile DSD256.
