KANN ALPHA’s design concept is boldness. This device's heavy body and wheel start strong. The designer's visual iconography appears as asymmetric triangles made of ceramic materials, establishing a harmony between the player's weight and more subtle details. The wheel protector, KANN ALPHA’s trademark, raises beyond the edge of the device, inspired by an over fender that blocks sand and stone when an off-road car is running. KANN ALPHA is designed to be sturdy and strong, combining the Astell&Kern’s player and AMP to deliver a strong performance.
