Astell & Kern SP3000

INNOVATIONS: WORLD'S FIRST USE OF 904L FOR BODY MATERIAL

To achieve the goal of 'providing the best, unrivaled value with innovative and uncompromising design and craftsmanship,' the SP3000 uses 904L stainless steel never attempted before in a portable DAP. Due to its extra amounts of chromium, molybdenum, nickel, and copper, 904L features superior resistance to corrosion, rust, and acids.

TERATON ALPHA, THE ESSENCE OF A&K AUDIO

Not only is the latest DAC and technology available used, but also implemented is the innovative audio technology of AK's Ultimate Sound Solution TERATON ALPHA, refined for the SP3000.

FIRST USE OF AKM'S LATEST FLAGSHIP DAC

The world's first quad (x4) flagship AK4499EX DAC is implemented in the SP3000, along with the HEXA-Audio Circuitry structure design in which dual AK4191EQ digital signal processors are applied separately, the magic behind the renowned A&K sound. Additionally, a silver-plated shield is applied to prevent noise and electromagnetic interference from affecting the audio block.

INDEPENDENT DUAL AUDIO CIRCUIT

In order to create a truly innovative DAP, A&K overcame several sound limitations by implementing never-before-attempted tech: a HEXA-Audio Circuitry structure with unbalanced and balanced outputs.

SNAPDRAGON 8-CORE CPU AND NEW UI

SP3000 is equipped with a Snapdragon 6125 Octa-Core processor and 8GB of DDR4 memory for fast system response, and a redesigned, next-gen smooth interface.
With the newly developed UI, the SP3000 focuses on the process and experience of listening to music, making it a DAP where you forget the tech and simply enjoy the moments.

SOUND DESIGN WITH DAC FILTERS

With the SP3000, you can have fun creating your own sound style by selecting and combining up to 6 different DAC filters.
