Muse 300 has moved well beyond its original Kickstarter target, drawing strong early interest from backers. With 108 supporters and 24 days still left on the campaign, the project has already reached $39,189 against a modest goal of $6,375.
The rapid funding surge puts the DAC and headphone amplifier closer to production and delivery. If the current timetable stays on track, shipping is expected to begin next month, after the campaign became fully funded in less than a week.
Early pricing has moved quickly
The strongest price incentive has already disappeared. The Super Early Bird tier at $349.99 for 50 units is gone, while the Early Bird option at $379.99 remains available and has already been claimed 48 times out of 300 units.
Buyers still have one unrestricted Kickstarter Special tier at $399.99. Backers who only want to support the project without a reward can also make small pledges with no benefits attached.

What Muse 300 is built to do
Muse 300 is not a standard audio accessory. It is a DAC and headphone amplifier with a custom operating system built from the ground up, rather than a software layer placed on top of Android.
On the hardware side, the device includes balanced, tube, and ACG tuning, plus four input modes. It also offers XLR and RCA outputs, an ES9039 Ultra flagship chip, a QCC3095 Bluetooth chip, and a customized power supply.
The package also includes a one-year warranty against manufacturing defects and online support. Combined with its fast funding pace, the feature set has made Muse 300 one of the more closely watched audio projects on Kickstarter right now.
