    Shanling M5 Ultra - High-End MTouch Portable Player - Releasing in April 2024

    Man, I am all for these new “return to their roots” players, along with the Cayin N3 Ultra, without the Android stuff.

    Currently celebrating the life of the great ERIC CARMEN…listening to my Solaris 2020 and TimeStream 4.4 balanced through my Astell&Kerm SP3000. Rock on!

    maybe I missed this info, and not sure if this a dumb question, but is the Fathom painted?

    I am so intrigued by the Bonneville and definitely intrigued by that color, in your opinion, how do they look and feel in person?

    Definitely still digging on my rough, rugged and weathered Solaris 2020, with a brand-new TimeStream cable with the 4.4mm balanced termination.

    @JasonNYC thanks so much for the reply! I’m not sure where I can find the ID3 tag for each track.

    Astell&Kern A&ultima SP3000

    This is more of a software quirk/issue than anything sound-related, as in my opinion, this SP3000 is one of, if not the, best of the many DAP’s I’ve owned. I have a multi-disc set (2023 Super Deluxe Edition release of The Who - “Who’s Next / Life House”) that consists of 10 CD’s. Through Apple...

    Astell&Kern A&ultima SP3000

    Thanks, @JasonNYC! Now, I think about it, I had just recently powered on the player! I was rushing things! The SP3000 is STILL such a great player. Thanks for always looking here and replying here, @JasonNYC, your kind of support is great!

    Astell&Kern A&ultima SP3000

    Recently updated to latest firmware. Often have album artwork issues, and always seem to clean that up with a somewhat lengthy “media scan”…just noticed the “initialize media scan” option under Settings/System Reset is “greyed out” and not available…can’t figure out what’s up.

    Astell&Kern A&ultima SP3000

    Respectfully, @JasonNYC, I had “tap to wake” off for a while, because of sensitivity issues, but I felt like waking the player by pressing on the volume button so often would lead to wear and tear on that beautiful dial/button! I find the SP3000 to be just large enough that every time I seem to...

    Astell&Kern A&ultima SP3000

    Thanks! I think I’ll pick one of these up! Back when I owned an iBasso DX300 I had a very similar case and I liked everything about it in comparison to the one that was included with the player!

    Astell&Kern A&ultima SP3000

    I love my SP3000 but I find when I’m going mobile with it, no matter where I touch it, I either wake the screen, press the volume wheel, or press one of the side buttons! It’s a big fella! Having the ability to disable some our all those options would be something I’d be interested in! @JasonNYC

    Astell&Kern A&ultima SP3000

    When WHEEL LOCK is turned on, will pressing on the wheel not wake up the player/screen? Bumping the wheel by mistake is a common problem for me. I’ll hafta check this out…

    Astell&Kern A&ultima SP3000

    I have struggled with this, as well. I feel like the SP3000 is such a big fella, it’s hard not to press the wheel or the side buttons if you are using it in a portable way, going in and out of pockets! I’ve found the included leather case is so soft and supple, as well, that makes the buttons...

    Astell & Kern SR25: The next A&norma player

    All the words above I now live by. I used to leave my SR25 plugged in ALL THE TIME to the port of my MacBook, as I was often loading and unloading music onto it. That is, until the shocking day, that the battery bulged, compromised the glue and pushed the back plate out, and I had to return the...
