I'm surprised very few people are covering this DAC on Youtube, and haven't seen it available anywhere but here and on Aliexpress.
Not much to add to the product description really - it's the good old CS43131 in the most compact form possible. Much more visually pleasing than the regular dongles. I clipped the hook to the end of my usual 3.5mm cable - now I never have to worry about losing the dongle if I want to take it off and use the 3.5mm.
More than enough power for regular old IEMs. Plugged the HD600 - 75% volume is more than enough.
Compared to the KA11, certainly less power, but so much tinier, and has DSP. Surprisingly, the Key also gets noticeably warm, even with easy to drive IEMs.
