[Material evaluation] Feiao KB3 HiFi music keyboard: bring a little HiFi shock to the keyboard circle

Feiao's HiFi tabletop is a new product concept launched in recent years. It provides a complete set of HiFi solutions for "incipient burn population". This desk set includes R7 desktop digital broadcasting, SP3 high fidelity desktop speakers, FT3 head with big ears and KB1K multimedia mini keyboard Etc. I like Feiao's concept of HiFi table construction, which not only makes HiFi easier to use. At the same time, I also take into account my favorite desktop aesthetic design. In addition, Feiao is also constantly expanding their HiFi desktop product line.

At the end of 2023, Feiao brought out their latest product based on HiFi table: Feiao KB3 HiFi keyboard. This product can be said to be the audio product I am looking forward to most this year. As a cross-border attempt of Feiao, how does the KB3 HiFi keyboard perform? Can it bring the effect that one plus one is greater than two?

A handy mechanical keyboard

I was originally a fan of customized keyboards. Since my colleagues planted grass for me, I have opened another door of "fever". The circle of customized mechanical keyboard is very deep. From the overall structure of the keyboard to the details of the shaft and the key cap, every part is particular. As the first attempt of Feiao to customize the mechanical keyboard, KB3 has a high starting point. The KB3 keyboard has a single-mode version and a three-mode version. The single-mode version uses a wired connection, while the three-mode version supports Bluetooth and 2.4G wireless connections. At present, the HiFi function of KB3 only supports the single mode wired version, which is also my most recommended purchase version.

In terms of appearance, this keyboard chooses a classic and non dominating all black tone. The panel of the keyboard is made of aluminum magnesium alloy, and the metal material gives the keyboard a sense of texture and is also durable. KB3 adopts 75% compact keyboard layout. You should know that for audiophiles who are pursuing sound quality, the space on the desk is often very tight, and this small keyboard will not occupy too much desktop area. Moreover, 75% of the keyboard configuration is enough to meet the daily code needs of most people.

As a mechanical keyboard launched in 2023, KB3 adopts the internal structure design of the current popular Gasket keyboard. The keyboard of the Gasket structure has a slightly "elastic" feeling when striking, which can provide a more uniform touch and make the keystrokes at different positions more consistent. At the same time, it can also provide additional sound insulation effect, combined with KB3 double-layer sound absorption sponge design, so as to provide a more comfortable and silent typing experience.

In terms of typing experience, KB3 is equipped with Jiadalong Gpro3.0 yellow shaft and PC material keycap, supporting full keyboard hot plug. Jiadalong Gpro3.0 yellow axis is a linear axis, with 50g trigger force and 4mm key stroke, providing a relatively smooth typing touch. Although the handle of Jiadalong Gpro3.0 yellow shaft is good, the pressure on the shaft body is a bit strong for me. I prefer the shaft body with low pressure, such as TTC powder shaft or flame purple. However, changing your favorite shaft body and key cap is the greatest pleasure of customization, so that your keyboard can have a new experience.

The top of the KB3 keyboard is equipped with two USB expansion interfaces, which can be extended to other external devices. I use this interface to connect my mouse for charging, which is very convenient.

An independent red volume control wheel is mounted on the far right side of the keyboard, which can be used to adjust the current playing volume of the headset and switch the mute mode.

In addition, the RGB light of KB3 keyboard is also worth mentioning. It supports 18 different keyboard light effects, and can directly control the light intensity and lighting mode through F1 to F4 keys. Because I use KB3 in the office, I use it most of the time by turning off the keyboard lights.

Of course, the sound quality is the core highlight of KB3.

KB3 is equipped with dual CS43131DAC chips and dual SGM8262 operational amplifier chips, which can support up to 32bit/384kHz high bit rate audio decoding and DSD256 audio coding. At the same time, KB3 also has a strong driving force of 550mW, which can easily push most of the high resistance earplugs or big ears.

The side of KB3 is equipped with 3.5mm single end and 4.4mm balanced interfaces. The 3.5mm interface also supports SPDIF digital output, which can be directly connected to amplifiers or speakers. Users familiar with Feiao may be familiar with this parameter. Yes, Feiao has equipped the KB3 with the same acoustic configuration as the KA13 decoding ear amplifier. It can be said that it bought a keyboard for Xiaowei.

KB3 decoding ear amplifier (small tail) is also a new product of Feiao this year. I also gave a very high evaluation to this small tail before. In addition to having the same thrust as KA13, KB3 also has the same HiFi level sound performance as KA13, so you can use KB3 as a decoding ear amplifier. KB3 is very rich in restoring music details, providing clear and exquisite sound. At the same time, KB3 can provide earphones with very pure sound, ensuring high fidelity of sound quality.
