An unannounced Teenage Engineering device, the KO-Amp 35, can be found over at the FCC in a new filing. The label clearly marks it as a member of the mid-range EP family instruments, which currently includes the KO-II and its spinoffs, the Riddim and the Medieval.

All we know is that it has a built-in rechargeable battery and Bluetooth, but little else. There is also a “model difference statement,” which suggests the KO-Amp will come in multiple colors. The angle and distance of the images in the filing make it difficult to discern much, though there appear to be knobs set in the concave handle across the top, and a quarter-inch jack on the top rear of the device.
