AKM's top DAC chips are listed as "EOL" "End of Line" products:
EOL (End Of Life) | Product Lifecycle | SUPPORT | AKM - Asahi Kasei Microdevices
NOTICE
"AK4498EQ, AK4499EQ: The redevelopment plan of Flagship DAC products will be available soon."...
AK4499EQ | Audio D/A Converters | PRODUCTS | Asahi Kasei Microdevices (AKM)
AK4498EQ | Audio D/A Converters | PRODUCTS | Asahi Kasei Microdevices (AKM)
...many more are listed as EOL - End of Line...
I had hoped these and others had production moved to other firms, but it looks like AKM is going to reinvent their top DAC's as part of their post-fire recovery efforts.

Besides the Part Status "EOL" chips, there are a number of chips Status "PREVIEW" or under development, and there chips with Status "MP" or in Mass Production:
