A&ultima SP1000

Astell&Kern is proud to introduce the A&ultima SP1000. This powerful, high-end music player is equipped with the latest advanced features, like an octa-core CPU for outstanding response and performance, and a HD5 display to create the best viewing experience. Traditional audio has suffered from noise and distortion as power output is increased, but with Astell&Kern’s advanced audio design and signal management technologies, the A&ultima SP1000 brings more power output with less noise, and minimal distortion.

The A&ultima SP1000 also features faster booting times, speedy file transfers, lag-free processing and a new intuitive user interface for the ultimate player experience. The latest AK4497EQ dual-DAC design and the upgraded CPU allows for accurate playback of native 32bit/384kHz audio, so music is played back, bit-for-bit, just as the artist and engineer intended for it to be heard.

Finally, the A&ultima SP1000 is finished with a revamped interface design which provides music playback from the home screen to give users a more music-centric experience. By placing the power button on the Multi-function wheel located on the side of the A&ultima SP1000 instead of on the top, users can control the volume and turn the LCD screen ON/OFF, all with one simple control. Song and player information is sharp, colorful and easily to read on the larger, brighter screen.
