Astell&Kern's philosophy of producing immersive sound from high-resolution original music is a testament to the spirit of innovation and excellence that the Astell&Kern series embodies. Our goal was to surpass the impeccable design and high-resolution sound of our previous product, the SP3000, by creating an audio player that will truly capture the emotion and resonance of music. Developed with this vision in mind, the A&K SP3000T channels the deep emotion and enduring essence of analog audio. The integration of a real vacuum tube creates authentic analog sound complemented by cutting-edge audio technology such as TERATON ALPHA for an immersive listening experience.
The Astell&Kern SP3000T is a portable audio player that defies convention and offers a unique fusion of analog and digital excellence.
