Please note this item is ordered on demand from the supplier and may take longer than our usual 2 - 4 working days to arrive TRIPLE AMP SYSTEM is the Next Generation of AMP Technology The SP2000T exceeds the standard approach to AMP Mode selection, based on the type of music you are listening to. Select between TUBE AMP mode, OP AMP mode, or the brand-new HYBRID AMP mode. OP AMP mode puts Astell&Kern's AMP technology expertise to use, delivering extreme clarity and dynamic sound, while TUBE AMP mode provides a uniquely warm and musical sound. HYBRID AMP mode - a first for digital audio players - enhances the resolution and clarity of the existing TUBE AMP mode to express more musical detail. HYBRID AMP mode, combines the advantages of retro analogy performance and high-resolution output, giving you the pleasure of a brand new tonal characteristic. Experience the unique sound enhancements that AMP technology has to offer. OP AMP Mode : Extreme clarity and dynamic sound TUBE AMP Mode : Uniquely warm and musical sound HYBRID AMP Mode : A fresh combination of retro vibes and high-resolution output. Vacuum Tube Amplifier Compatible with 2.5 mm, 3.5 mm and 4.4 mm Output Jacks The SP2000T supports all output types, with no restriction on the type of receiver used, so you can enjoy the unique characteristics of the vacuum tube. Real Vacuum Tube Equipped with the portable-friendly dual-triode KORG Nutube, for a unique TUBE AMP sound. Nutube offers a reliable continuous playback time of approximately 30,000 hours. It features an anode grid filament structure that operates the same as a triode vacuum tube. It's much smaller, consumes far less power and yet delivers the same audio with rich overtones. The SP2000T supports all output types, with no restriction on the type of receiver used, so listeners can enjoy the unique characteristics of the vacuum tube. HYBRID AMP MODE HYBRID AMP mode supported for the first time by DAP is the essence of Astell&Kern's advanced AMP design technology. New combinations of sounds can be enjoyed in HYBRID AMP mode, which is based on the OP AMP sound and addition of tasteful warm tones unique to TUBE AMP technology. Special Design to Minimize Microphonics Noise SP200T features a special design tailored to minimize microphonics (the phenomenon wherein the vacuum tubes generate noise even from a small external impact). Multiple design iterations and verifications have been performed over a long period of time to fix the structural issues of vacuum tubes that generate microphonics noise even from a small impact or vibration. For minimization of mechanical impact and vibration, both sides of the vacuum tube are fixed with flexible silicone covers, and the vacuum tube has been modularized so it is physically separate from the PCB. Astell&Kern goes to great lengths to innovate and design these small components that make a big difference in the quality and sound of our products that no other manufacturer can match. Silver Plating Shield Can Astell&Kern products apply shield cans so that noise and electromagnetic interference, which occur when the countless parts are in operation, do not affect the audio block. The SP2000T has taken it a step further by applying highly conductive, hyper-pure silver plating on the existing shield cans for perfect shielding that provides excellent audio performance. AK ULTIMATE SOUND SOLUTION, TERATON ALPHA TERATON ALPHA is AK's ultimate Sound Solution to produce audio playback that is close to the original sound through the audio output interface by use of effective power noise removal, efficient power management and amplification with minimal distortion. TERATON ALPHA features Astell&Kern's patented technologies, which are the result of tens of thousands of hours of continuous research and development to produce sound close to the original sound the artist and producer intended. ReplayGain Automatically and Uniformly Adjusts Playback Volume ReplayGain, which adjusts sound sources with different volumes to an identical level, has been applied. Now, enjoy your own playlists seamlessly through the ReplayGain feature on SP2000T. * ReplayGain supports up to 24-bit/192 kHz sound sources. Dual-Band Wi-Fi (2.4/5 GHz) Dual-Band Wi-Fi is supported for users who enjoy streaming services, providing enhanced network performance. With streaming music services becoming more popular, stronger and more reliable network reception becomes even more important for your audio experience. The SP2000T supports Dual-Band Wi-Fi (2.4/5GHz, a/b/g/n/ac). AK File Drop to enjoy wireless transfers The new AK File Drop function in the SP2000T makes files transfers easier and more convenient.
