I love the sony too, but i went to sp3000 because i love the AK tunning too and i wanted to try it out, the overall sp3000 sound in my opinion is more " universal" when iems are used , with the sony and AK the ierz1r played at a very high level on both but the penon 10th for an exemple with sony became a bit slow sounding, with sp3000 is way better, is a question of synergy, both players are excelente, ak has volume lock in the menuWhat made you go from sony to AK? I went the other way from AK to Sony haha.
I was a lifelong AK user and just wanted something different to mix it up.
AK had more sound stage, sony mids were more my liking, I enjoyed both almost equally. The deal breaker for me is during travel and putting AK in pocket...no lock.
In the AK thread many requests asked for them to implement it but nope. Hence they lost a customer/fan.
