Sp1k is other level in comparision with AK380. AK380SS seem to be the bridge between 380 line and SP1000.
the M is a better 240 in terms of brightness presentation, whilst the 1000 is the more holographic presenter. bet the SS & Cu versions of the 1k, the former is the neutral & warmer (better body on voice) of the latter....
The 1kM Mseries is less detail and precision than original 1k. I focus on the macro dynamic and not fulfill the need for micro/realistic detail.
