The Kronos is prepared for computer playback and general DSD professional audio use. The Kronos is in many respects a new ground-breaking DAC design with an advanced technology like a new vacuum tube output stage, new DAC design and a switchable PCM-DSD converter.

The Kronos DAC is available in 3 different versions (modular architecture and anytime upgradable), as Kronos “XS”, Kronos “Signature” and Kronos “Ultimate” (top-level version).

Based on a zero-feedback, pure tube circuit design and a tube rectified power supply, the Kronos reveals the manifold layers of music with utmost transparency while projecting a deep and highly focused 3D soundstage. Its bass is extended and powerful, its midrange pure, liquid and permeated with natural warmth, while the top is extraordinarily clean and finely detailed. This Reference DAC offers an uncompromising quality level in every aspect. The Kronos is one of the most exciting DAC with vacuum-tube output stage and the best sounding DAC what Ayon Audio ever built.
