Astell&Kern Astell & Kern AK 380 Titan Audiophile Hires MP3 Player with Wi-Fi and Bluetooth aptX HD Meteoric Titan

AK380 - more than just a portable Hi-Res player! The Astell&Kern AK380 has been setting new standards since its release. As the first player in the world, it supports playback of 32 bit / 384kHz and DSD256 (native) files. The professional parametric equalizer lets you design the sound to your benefits. The new generation of AK players can be extended by various modules, so for example, a separate amplifier (AK Amp) can be mounted to operate hard-to-operate handsets on the go. The AK Recorder lets you easily record concerts, records, CDs or interviews in high-resolution formats, turning it into a true professional device! The cradle allows you to integrate the AK380 directly into your Hi-Fi system via XLR outputs. Furthermore, each WLAN enabled player from Astell&Kern is fully UPnP capable, which allows you to access your entire music collection, which is located e.g. on a NAS. You can then play them perfectly and save them locally on your AK. With every new generation of players, Astell&Kern manages to reduce noise even further, resulting in an extremely black background and perfect instrument separation. The stage produced by the AK380 extends very widely in an unprecedented three-dimensionality. The sound quality is thrilling realistic, with a lot of very precisely drawn micro-details. The overall picture of the music is expressive, captivating and moving! Astell&Kern digital audio players regulate the volume, unlike other manufacturers, via the D/A converter directly, which makes the sound more balanced and clearer, and it also makes a directly wired line-out output unnecessary. The sound of the AK380 is unparalleled - even many more expensive hi-fi systems sweat compared to it Box Contains Player, bag made of Italy. Genuine leather, USB cable
