We are in a new era of the way we listen to music now. Out with the CD and in with the USB. There are many reasons why things are changing with the way we listen to and store our music today. The main ones are sound quality, storage capacity and ease of use.

Introducing the New Hi-Res USB K-DRIVE ™. With this new technology, you can now listen to all of your music in High-Resolution, FLAC (192kHz/24bit) Format and play it on basically anything that has a USB port. Here are just a few reasons why this format is so popular.

Sound Quality – Listening to music in High-Resolution Audio gives you unbelievable sound quality, far more superior than mp3 or standard CDs can give. Mainly because the file size of a Hi-Res audio track is much larger than a standard audio track to be able to store more information to produce that high quality sound output, therefore it needs more storage space to contain the much larger file size used for High-Resolution Audio, which the standard CD just doesn’t have like our High-Capacity USB K-DRIVE ™ has.

Storage Capacity – Storing and playing Hi-Res Audio music on a High-Capacity USB K-DRIVE ™ gives you the ability not only to play a High-Resolution Audio album, but it also gives you the ability to play and store multiple Hi-Res albums using only one device. The file size of an album in High-Resolution FLAC (192kHz/24bit) Audio Format is about 10 times larger than that of one on a standard CD. So a Hi-Res album because of it’s file size, wouldn’t even come close to fitting on a standard CD.

Ease of Use – To be able to even play a High-Resolution Audio Album, which requires a huge file size to give you that amazing sound quality and have it all stored on one little USB K-DRIVE ™ (a.k.a. flash drive or memory stick) says it all. Wouldn’t you rather use one small, little device that you can carry around with you in your pocket or even on your keychain and be able to play it in your car,* or basically anywhere that has a USB slot, instead of carrying around multiple separate CDs? Not only that, the Hi-Res Audio files are just to large to have it be practical to store all on your cell phone. You may be able to have a few Hi-Res albums stored on your phone but that’s it. You don’t want to be cluttering up your cell phone storage with all those large music files. That’s why so many people started using low quality mp3 files to play their music back then because it took up less space. However, you have to give up so much of the sound quality in your music, just to save some space. Then people started wondering why their music doesn’t sound as good as it used to. That brings us back to the number one reason why the new USB K-DRIVE ™ format is now the trending choice in the way people choose to listen to their music. The main reason is that you now have all your music on one small device in outstanding High-Resolution Audio (192kHz/24bit) FLAC Format that has also been QMastered™, to give you the highest sound quality possible. Much more superior sound than the standard CD. You can even plug a K-DRIVE™ album right to your phone! No download necessary.

Album Info Shows On Screen – Another nice feature and benefit we have on the USB K-DRIVE ™ is the ability to show all of the album information on the display screen. It shows the artist name, album title, track info & album cover.

So this USB K-DRIVE ™ not only plays in High-Resolution Audio FLAC (192kHz/24bit) Format on all media devices, it displays all album information, something standard CDs don’t do. Just plug & play. It’s that simple.

Why FLAC (192kHz/24bit) Format? – There are many Hi-Res Audio formats such as: DSD (Single Rate) 2.8MHz/64fs, FLAC (96kHz/24bit), FLAC (44kHz/24bit) and also the ALAC Apple Hi-Res formats. One of the many reasons we decided to use the FLAC (192kHz/24bit) format for our Hi-Res USB K-DRIVE ™  is because FLAC is the most popular and widely accepted, easily used Hi-Res format.

So if you get it, make sure you get it on a KDRIVE ™.
