Astell&Kern SP3000M
The Astell&Kern SP3000M is the compact version of the A&ultima SP3000, a genuinely portable flagship DAP that preserves the SP3000's dual AK4499EX DAC architecture and reference audio performance in a smaller, lighter form factor designed for listeners who demand unrivaled sound quality without compromising portability.
Type and Technology
Compact flagship digital audio player. Dual AKM AK4499EX DAC chips, same as the full-size SP3000. Quad-core processor optimized for the compact chassis. 3.5mm single-ended, 2.5mm balanced, and 4.4mm Pentaconn balanced outputs. Wi-Fi streaming with Tidal, Spotify, Amazon Music, and others. Bluetooth with aptX HD and LDAC. MQA full decoder. Android-based OS for streaming app compatibility. Internal storage plus microSD expansion. USB-C for data and charging.
Sound Character
The SP3000M delivers the SP3000's reference-class audio performance, detailed, precise, and tonally neutral, in a chassis small enough for any pocket. The dual AK4499EX configuration delivers the channel separation and dynamic performance that made the full-size SP3000 A&K's best-reviewed flagship, now available without the full-size form factor commitment.
Build and Finish
Compact machined aluminum chassis with premium surface finish. Physical volume wheel. High-quality display. Available in Absolute Black and Misty Mint.
Best For
Audiophiles who want the SP3000's flagship audio performance in a pocketable package, and those for whom daily portable use requires a more compact form factor without compromising the listening experience.
