The KB3 also has a stepless volume knob, a 3.5 mm single-ended and a 4.4 mm balanced headphone jack, and supports both Mac and Windows OS.

The KB3 is available on Fiio’s official AliExpress store for $299.99 USD. It comes in three color options: black, silver, and blue. The keyboard also includes a USB-C cable, a 4.4 mm to 2.5 mm balanced adapter, and a set of swappable keycaps. The KB3 is a limited edition product, and only 500 units are produced for each color.
